Lindsay Clancy jury says they are deadlocked, judge tells them to continue deliberations

PLYMOUTH, Mass. – Jurors in Lindsay Clancy’s murder trial announced Tuesday that they are deadlocked — but the judge sent them back to deliberate more.

The 12-person jury – made up of nine women and six men – told Judge William Sullivan that they could not agree on whether to convict Clancy, 36, of three counts of first-degree murder.

The note from the jury came after they heard dueling accounts of the mom’s state of mind when she fatally strangled Cora, 5; Dawson, 3, and 8-month-old Callan using exercise bands before trying to take her own life on Jan. 24, 2023.


Here’s the latest on Lindsay Clancy’s trial for allegedly murdering her three children:


Defense lawyer Kevin Reddington argued that Clancy was in the throes of postpartum psychosis, worsened by a myriad of prescription medications, and had hallucinated a man’s voice inside her head instructing her to kill the children and herself.

Prosecutors countered that she was in her right mind and had carefully planned the killings, including getting her then-husband, Patrick, to pick up medication at CVS and take-out from a local restaurant so that she could be alone with the children in their Duxbury home.

Both sides rested their cases after a total of 21 days of testimony, which began with Patrick taking the stand as the first witness last month.
