Women in Pink Rally in Support of Lindsay Clancy at Her Trial for Killing Her 3 Children
Hundreds of supporters gathered in silence to urge better mental health care for mothers as defense testimony focused on postpartum psychosis.
- On Thursday, hundreds of supporters wearing pink gathered outside Plymouth Superior Court on Day 17 of Lindsay Clancy's murder trial, advocating for improved postpartum mental healthcare and better treatment for mothers.
- Clancy, 36, faces first-degree murder charges in the deaths of her three children—Callan, Dawson, and Cora—who ranged from 8 months to 5 years old on January 24, 2023; defense attorney Kevin Reddington argues she suffered from postpartum psychosis and overmedication.
- Testifying for the defense, chaplain Sheila Cavanaugh described Clancy alluding to a persistent male voice that told her "if she did not follow the command, neither she nor her children would be safe." Cavanaugh testified for about 20 minutes before the jury was dismissed.
- Defense attorney Reddington plans to call Dr. Phillip Resnick, who testified in the Andrea Yates trial, as his final witness via Zoom on Friday, with Judge William Sullivan indicating closing arguments will likely begin Monday or Tuesday.
- Rally organizer Renee Kimball urged supporters to trust in Reddington's advocacy, while mental health worker Valery Rockwell criticized the system for failing to "communicate with each other," putting women in danger and highlighting broader demands for postpartum healthcare reform.
