Lindsay Clancy Trial: Trooper's Bedroom Video Shows Knife, Handprint, and a Bloody Floor

The murder trial of Lindsay Clancy moved into some of its most graphic territory today, with Massachusetts State Police case officer Joshua McKelligan testifying about the crime scene video he captured inside the Duxbury, Massachusetts home just hours after the killings. Clancy is accused of strangling her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — with exercise bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. She faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation, has pleaded not guilty, and is mounting an insanity defense built on claims of severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication, led by attorney Kevin Reddington.

McKelligan told jurors he entered the home in the early morning of January 25 to document the master bedroom on video, footage played in court today that centered on blood spatters and smears, a knife, and the window from which Clancy allegedly jumped. The blood, he testified, was on the floors — not the walls. He also described a bloody handprint discovered outside that window, and testified that Patrick Clancy personally handed him pill bottles from the home.

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 suicide by jumping from that second-story window, leaving her paralyzed from the waist down. Patrick Clancy was out running errands at the time and has since relocated to Manhattan. The trial, underway in Plymouth Superior Court, is expected to run several weeks.
