36岁的美国女性林赛·克兰西因2023年杀害三个孩子而被控谋杀罪,在马萨诸塞州法院出庭应诉1。克兰西不否认杀害了五岁的科拉、三岁的道森和八个月大的卡兰三个孩子1。
克兰西的辩护律师凯文·雷丁顿根据马萨诸塞州第25条规则要求法官宣判其无罪,主张克兰西当时患有严重产后精神病1。辩护方还对控方的证据充分性提出质疑,称检控方未能充分证明克兰西杀害了她的孩子2。检察官沙南·巴克汉姆声称"联邦政府已履行了举证责任"1。
该案的陪审团曾于9月4日宣布流审,原因是存在一名坚持不同意见的陪审员1。法院已安排11月2日举行关键听证会,讨论相关诉讼请求1。若案件进入重新审判程序,辩护律师表示最早也要到6月才能开庭1。
Lindsay Clancy, 36, appeared in court as her defense team moved to dismiss murder charges stemming from the deaths of her three children in 2023.1 The defendant does not dispute that she killed her children—Cora (5 years old), Dawson (3 years old), and Callan (8 months old)—but her attorney Kevin Reddington is invoking Massachusetts Rule 25 to argue for acquittal, contending that Clancy was suffering from severe postpartum psychosis at the time.1
The case took an unexpected turn in September when a jury declared a mistrial on September 4th after one juror refused to reach consensus with the others.1 A critical hearing is scheduled for November 2nd to address the defense's motion to dismiss.1 Prosecutor Shanan Buckingham has maintained that "the government has fulfilled its burden of proof,"1 while the defense challenges the sufficiency of the evidence.2 Should the case proceed to retrial, the earliest possible trial date would be June, according to the defense.1
