## Resource

A judge declared a mistrial in the harrowing case of Lindsay Clancy, accused of killing her three children in January 2023. Though she admitted to strangling them, her defense centered on postpartum psychosis and insanity. The jury deadlocked at 11-1, with one juror refusing to convict, forcing the verdict to be thrown out. Clancy’s lawyer blamed the lone holdout, while Clancy remains in a psychiatric facility. Prosecutors now face the tough decision of retrying the case — a move that could reopen wounds for grieving families and reignite national debates about maternal mental health. The trial was emotionally grueling, filled with difficult testimony, and no one expects closure anytime soon. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
