Lindsay Clancy Trial Day 22: Closing Arguments Conclude and Jury Begins Deliberations

Day 22 of the Lindsay Clancy trial centered on closing arguments from both sides followed by final legal instructions from the judge. Defense attorney Kevin Reddington argued that Clancy was suffering from severe psychosis and delusions brought on by mental illness and medication side effects, making her not criminally responsible for the deaths of her three children. Assistant District Attorney Jennifer Sprague argued that while Clancy suffered from depression and mental illness, she acted with deliberate premeditation, knew right from wrong, and could conform her behavior to the law. Judge Sullivian instructed the jury on key legal standards before selecting alternates and sending the 12-member panel to deliberate.
