Lindsay Clancy case: Prosecution seeks to admit graphic evidence
Prosecutors say the call and autopsy evidence help prove how the three children died and support testimony on premeditation and cruelty.
- On Thursday, Lindsay Clancy made a rare in-person court appearance at Plymouth Superior Court as lawyers argued over evidence admissible in her upcoming murder trial scheduled for July 20.
- Accused of killing her three children in 2023, Clancy has pleaded not guilty and plans to pursue an insanity defense, claiming she suffered from undiagnosed postpartum psychosis at the time.
- Prosecutors sought to play a 911 call made by Patrick Clancy to establish a timeline and manner of death, while defense attorney Kevin Reddington objected, saying the recording is 'horrific' though he lacked legal grounds to formally oppose it.
- The Commonwealth also seeks to admit autopsy photographs of the victims and requested jurors visit the former Clancy home in Duxbury, arguing the evidence proves premeditation and extreme cruelty.
- Barring further delays, the trial begins July 20 with both sides preparing for proceedings that could span four to eight weeks and involve more than 200 potential witnesses.
