Days after she allegedly killed her three young children and jumped from a second-floor window, Lindsay Clancy appeared calm, coherent, and cooperative during psychiatric evaluations, a doctor told Plymouth Superior Court on Monday.
The testimony came as Clancy’s murder trial entered its second week, with jurors hearing from several medical experts regarding her mental state after the January 2023 tragedy.
The former nurse is accused of strangling her children, Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and eight-month-old Callan, using exercise bands at their home in Duxbury, Massachusetts, before attempting to take her own life. The fall left her paralysed.
Psychiatrist Sejal Shah testified that she assessed Clancy several times at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston.
