Clancy Trial Jury Deadlocked Over Postpartum Psychosis Defense

Jurors in the Lindsay Clancy trial told the judge they are deadlocked, but the judge instructed them to continue deliberating. Clancy, a former nurse, admits to strangling her three children but pleads not guilty by reason of postpartum psychosis.

🐿️ This deadlock shows how deeply divided the jury is on whether severe mental illness can negate criminal responsibility for such extreme acts.
