No Damage to the Window: Duxbury Sergeant's Testimony in the Lindsay Clancy Trial

Two witnesses with very different vantage points took the stand this week in the Lindsay Clancy trial — one clinical, one procedural, both consequential. Clancy, 34, of Duxbury, Massachusetts, faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation over the deaths of her three children — Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 7 months — who prosecutors allege she strangled with exercise resistance bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. She's pleaded not guilty, and her attorney, Kevin Reddington, is arguing an insanity defense centered on severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.

Sgt. Robert Flynn of the Duxbury Police Department testified he was present when State Police executed the search warrant at the home, and told the court there was no damage to the window or screen — a detail that's going to matter a great deal to anyone tracking the physical evidence around Clancy's alleged fall. Flynn confirmed State Police took over the investigation after that.

Forensic psychiatrist Dr. Jhilam Biswas described her initial assessment of Clancy, focused on evaluating her safety and state of mind. Biswas told the court psychosis symptoms present differently from person to person, but said that during the roughly 20 minutes she communicated with Clancy, she observed no signs of active psychosis.

Clancy is accused of attempting suicide after the killings, leaving her paralyzed from the waist down. Her husband, Patrick Clancy, was running errands at the time and has since relocated to Manhattan. The trial is underway in Plymouth Superior Court and is expected to run several weeks.
