What to know about the Lindsay Clancy trial

Closing arguments are expected later this week in the trial of Lindsay Clancy, a 36-year-old mother from Massachusetts. Clancy is accused of strangling her three children to death in 2023. The legal proceedings have sparked broader discussions regarding postpartum disorders, with some critics arguing that the trial exposes political falsehoods and highlights a refusal among certain right-wing groups to acknowledge the reality of these mental health conditions during the postpartum period following childbirth.
