The court held that excluding thousands of pages of her psychiatric records, documenting a diagnosis of paranoid schizophrenia, was prejudicial error on the sole question before the jury: criminal responsibility. The trial judge was William Sullivan — the same judge now presiding over Lindsay Clancy's murder trial in Plymouth, where the identical question is being litigated. The Plymouth County District Attorney's office says it is reviewing the opinion. In week three of the Clancy trial, prosecutors called the family's nanny, the children's pediatrician and preschool teachers, a family friend and Clancy's former father-in-law, all describing a devoted mother — the Commonwealth's argument being that a functioning woman was making decisions, not experiencing psychosis. Clancy has pleaded not guilty and does not dispute causing the deaths of Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months. Judge Sullivan has taken under advisement whether the defense may call three medical experts. Also: in East St. Louis, Illinois, a 15-year-old has been charged with first-degree murder in the stabbing of 78-year-old John Wesley Allen Sr., who was waiting for a bus. Prosecutors have moved to transfer the case to adult court. Join our new FB groups page here. Take the poll! Join the Daily Crime & Justice community on social media!
