Lindsay Clancy Trial: Doctors Detail the Injuries That Never Should Have Happened

Lindsay Clancy Trial: Doctors Detail the Injuries That Never Should Have Happened


Three physicians took the stand today in the murder trial of Lindsay Clancy, the Duxbury, Massachusetts mother accused of strangling her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — with exercise resistance bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. Clancy faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation. She has pleaded not guilty and is mounting an insanity defense, with attorney Kevin Reddington arguing she was in the grip of severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication at the time of the killings.

Dr. Michael Snyder of Beth Israel Hospital, Dr. Andrew Capraro of the ER at Boston Children's Hospital, and Dr. David Casavant of the ICU at Boston Children's Hospital walked jurors through the children's arrival and treatment — and the brain injuries caused by prolonged oxygen deprivation. The damage was most severe in Callan, the youngest of the three, whose seven-month-old brain had the least capacity to withstand it. These weren't abstract medical terms for the jury. They were a roadmap of exactly what strangulation does to a small child's body, delivered by the people who tried to reverse it and couldn't.

Prosecutors are expected to argue Clancy understood the nature of her actions despite the defense's mental-health claims. After the killings, Clancy allegedly attempted to take her own life by jumping from a second-story window, leaving her paralyzed from the waist down. Her husband, Patrick Clancy, was out of the home running errands at the time and has since relocated to Manhattan. The trial, underway in Plymouth Superior Court before Judge William F. Sullivan, is expected to last several weeks.
