The jury in Lindsay Clancy's trial in Plymouth, Massachusetts heard closing arguments in the case on Thursday, before deciding whether the former nurse will be found criminally responsible for the deaths of her three children in 2023. While both parties agree that she killed the children, the defense argues she suffered from postpartum psychosis and that poor medical care worsened her condition.
