A legal team representing a Massachusetts mother accused of strangling her three children has shifted strategy in a post-trial filing, questioning prosecutors to demand evidence supporting the charges. The defense previously argued the woman suffered from psychosis at the time of the alleged crimes, but her lawyer now directly challenges the prosecution’s case by calling for proof of her involvement. The unexpected move raises questions about the strength of the state’s evidence and the defense’s evolving approach. Legal observers will be watching to see how this development could influence any potential appeals or sentencing proceedings.
Lindsay Clancy’s lawyer asked “where is the evidence” that the Massachusetts mother of three strangled her kids – an apparent flip from the defense strategy at trial that she was psychotic at the time.
