Lindsay Clancy Murder Trial Jury Begins Deliberations

🐿️ The Squirrel's Take
The prosecution’s expert testimony undermines the defense's postpartum psychosis narrative, likely leading to a conviction.
💡 Why it matters
This case will set a precedent for how postpartum psychosis is weighed as a criminal defense in the US.

The jury in Lindsay Clancy's trial began deliberations on Wednesday after five weeks of testimony. FBI psychiatrist Gregory Saathoff testified that he does not believe Clancy heard a voice ordering her to kill her three children in 2023.
