The trial of Lindsay Clancy continues with expert witnesses disputing her defense claim of postpartum psychosis. Testimony has focused on her mental state during the tragic deaths of her three children in January 2023, as the jury prepares for deliberations expected to start Friday. Prosecutors argue Clancy was aware of her actions, while defense witnesses assert she was not in control due to mental illness.

Closing arguments are anticipated Thursday, following a month of testimony that has highlighted conflicting expert opinions regarding Clancy's psychological condition and culpability.
