Patrick Clancy, the former husband of Massachusetts mother Lindsay Clancy, testified in court on Wednesday regarding the January 2023 tragedy in which she strangled their three young children. During the court proceedings, jurors listened to Patrick Clancy’s anguished seven-minute 911 call, which was made after he returned home from an errand to find the aftermath of the killings. Lindsay Clancy sobbed in the courtroom as the recording was played.
Lawyers for Lindsay Clancy stated that she was experiencing severe postpartum psychosis at the time of the killings. Prior to the tragedy, she had sought treatment from experts for postpregnancy mood disorders, had been prescribed multiple psychiatric medications, and had checked into a psychiatric hospital when those treatments proved ineffective. She strangled the children 19 days after being discharged from the facility.
