World

  • Lindsay Clancy’s murder trial ended in a mistrial after jurors failed to reach a unanimous verdict over the deaths of her three children.
  • Clancy, 36, admitted killing her children in 2023 but pleaded not guilty, with her defence arguing she was suffering from postpartum psychosis.
  • Prosecutors argued the killings were deliberate, while the defence said Clancy was unable to understand that her actions were wrong because of her mental state.
  • The mistrial leaves open the possibility of a retrial, with prosecutors yet to decide their next step; a hearing is set for September 29.
