The Lindsay Clancy trial was only about her state of mind
The Lindsay Clancy trial was only about her state of mind. It was not disputed that she killed her three children, but what was in dispute was whether she possessed the right state of mind to be criminally liable. In America, you must have the criminal act or act plus the criminal intent and evidence that is beyond a shadow of a doubt in order to be convicted for murder or some forms of manslaughter. I am not sure what exactly was Lindsay Clancy’s state of mind when she killed her kids, But I believe there was enough evidence to indicate that she did not have the right frame of mind.
There are a number of people speculating that she did not kill her children. This is a lie. It is misinformation. And it is completely contradicted by your own lawyer statements and particular and his closing statement where he mentions at least three times that she did kill her children. Central to the defenses theme: is that Lindsay was not able to get adequate mental healthcare and as a result, she was in a state of psychosis and did not know what she was doing or did not appreciate what she was doing her children.
