On January 24th, 2023, Patrick Clancy left his home in Duxbury,
Massachusetts, to collect food and medication for his wife
Lindsay Clancy.
But when he returned, their three children, five-year-old Cora,
three-year-old Dawson, and eight-month-old Callan, were dead.
Lindsay Clancy had strangled them using exercise bands, before
using a knife to cut her own wrists and neck, finally throwing
herself from the bedroom window. She survived, but the fall left
her paralysed. Now, she is on trial for her children’s deaths.
But Lindsay Clancy does not deny killing her three young
children. Rather, she has pleaded not guilty due to reason of
insanity, her defence claiming that she was suffering from severe
mental illness, and should not be held criminally
responsible.
So was it murder, or was she in the grip of a devastating
psychiatric crisis?
In the first episode of this series, Kayla is joined by crime
correspondent Rachel Sharp, reporting from inside the
Massachusetts courtroom, to break down the key evidence from the
trial so far.
