A mistrial was declared after 11 of 12 jurors leaned toward finding her not criminally responsible — and her lawyer now seeks a judge’s ruling to prevent a second trial. The core question: Was she legally sane when she strangled her children before attempting suicide? While prosecutors say she knew right from wrong, the defense insists she suffered from postpartum psychosis, with even their own experts acknowledging her illness. Her ability to handle daily tasks doesn’t erase an acute mental crisis, they argue. The trial has sparked national attention on maternal mental health, especially under Massachusetts law requiring proof of either no mental defect or the capacity to understand and control actions. Clancy, paralyzed from the waist down after her suicide attempt and confined to a psychiatric hospital, has been visibly shattered throughout proceedings.
