p/c Greg Derr, AP.It is currently September 2026 and the Lindsay Clancy trial was just declared a “mistrial.” As you probably know, in 2023, Clancy killed her three children, aged 5 years old, three years old and eight months old. That mother strangled her three children in Massachusetts, and she did it on purpose while her husband was running errands for her. She and her husband were apparently baptized Catholics.The trial has obviously entered the national spotlight due to the gruesomeness of the crime, the hung jury (one lone male standing against a mostly-female jury trying to exonerate her) and a fierce international debate surrounding claims of insanity by the defense.
