Jurors begin deliberations in Lindsay Clancy murder trial after emotional closings

–

Neutral summary

Jurors began deliberations Thursday in the trial of Lindsay Clancy, the Massachusetts mother accused of killing her three children, after emotional closing arguments. The defense argued she was not guilty by reason of insanity due to postpartum psychosis, saying her 'mind was gone,' while prosecutors contended she acted 'intentionally, rationally and quickly.' Some jurors were seen wiping away tears during the proceedings, and Clancy's lawyer said she was 'nervous' and 'scared.'
