Lindsay Clancy, a Massachusetts mother, admitted to killing her three young children in their home in 2023, but pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity, with her defense arguing that she was suffering from severe postpartum psychosis at the time. Prosecutors argued that the killings were deliberate and that Clancy understood her actions, while her defense maintained that her mental state left her unable to be held criminally responsible. Her 2026 trial ended in a mistrial after jurors deadlocked 11–1, leaving the murder charges unresolved and prosecutors considering whether to retry the case.
