The reporting
At Lindsay Clancy’s Massachusetts murder trial, a forensic psychiatrist testified that the 36-year-old mother was experiencing a “command hallucination” when she strangled her three children in 2023. Clancy admits killing 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson and 8-month-old Callan, and her defense argues she was legally insane because of postpartum psychosis or bipolar disorder with postpartum onset. She has filed a civil action against eight health-care providers and facilities over her treatment. The case has intensified debate over maternal mental health care, antidepressants and postpartum psychosis.
