## Resource

Did Lindsay Clancy knowingly kill her three children or is there enough reasonable doubt to question what really happened inside the Clancy home? In this Digital Social Hour 2v2 debate, Jamal, Adam, Pearl Davis, and Shannon go head-to-head over the Lindsay Clancy case. One side argues Lindsay planned the killings and later relied on postpartum psychosis as a defense. The opposing side challenges the investigation, questions whether Patrick Clancy was examined thoroughly enough, and argues that unanswered details make a murder conviction difficult to support beyond a reasonable doubt. The debate digs into Lindsay’s reported admission, medications, her mental state, the timeline, her body temperature, the crime scene, alleged inconsistencies in Patrick’s account, the reported 11-1 jury split, and whether postpartum psychosis should affect criminal responsibility.
