Lindsay Clancy trial: FBI psychiatrist who rejected her ‘voice’ account to face cross-examination
Prosecutor in infamous killer mom case says women jurors may bring ‘strange twist’ to Clancy verdict
A South Carolina lawmaker who prosecuted Susan Smith in her infamous double-murder case says the women on Lindsay Clancy’s jury could prove to be a “strange twist,” and may be less sympathetic to her than many assume.
Clancy, 36, has been charged with three counts of first-degree murder in connection with the deaths of her children — Cora, Dawson and Callan, all younger than 6 — who were discovered strangled at the family’s home in January 2023.
Her defense attorney says she was experiencing postpartum psychosis at the time she killed her children.
Testimony is expected to finish on Wednesday, with closing arguments anticipated for Thursday, after which the case will go to the jury. The panel seated for the trial is made up of 12 women and six men, but only 12 of them will deliberate, the rest serve as alternates and will be dismissed before deliberations begin.
