A 12-person jury deadlocked after seven days of deliberations. This led to a mistrial in Lindsay Clancy's murder case.

Prosecutors have not decided whether to seek a retrial. Clancy's husband Patrick Clancy called another trial "extraordinarily painful." The case centered on whether Clancy was criminally responsible.

She was accused of killing her three children. The children died at their Massachusetts home in January 2023.

Clancy's defense argued insanity and postpartum mental health struggles. The trial divided US opinion over Clancy.

Some saw her as a victim. Others saw her as a criminal.

Some said the case highlighted mothers' mental health struggles. Others argued mental health does not excuse murder. The disagreement reflected broader debate over criminal responsibility and mental health.
