Lindsay Clancy is on trial for the murder of her 3 children. Her defense argues she may not be ‘criminally responsible’

When Patrick Clancy left his Duxbury, Massachusetts, home on January 24, 2023, he had no way of knowing a quick errand to grab takeout and medicine for his daughter would forever change his life. When he returned to the colonial on Summer Street he shared with his wife, Lindsay, and their three children, he found the house unusually quiet, he would later tell police. Searching for his family, Patrick tried his bedroom, but the door was locked, he would say. When he finally got in, he saw blood in the room and the second-story window open. He ran outside, where he found Lindsay lying on the ground beneath the window. She had injuries on her wrists and neck. Frantic, he dialed 911. “What did you do?” Patrick asked his wife, a Plymouth County assistant district attorney would later recount the recorded call. Tried to kill herself, Lindsay told him.
