马萨诸塞州普利茅斯——林赛·克兰西(Lindsay Clancy)杀害三名子女案的陪审团在周四经过数小时审议后未能达成裁决,将于周五继续审议 1。在此次审判中,陪审团可作出的裁决包括谋杀、过失杀人或因精神问题无罪 1。检方指控克兰西因抑郁和厌倦生活,蓄意杀害孩子后自杀 1。辩方则主张克兰西因患有产后精神病而失去对现实的掌控,并以缺乏刑事责任能力为由作无罪辩护 1。
克兰西承认在2023年于马萨诸塞州的家中勒死了5岁的科拉(Cora)、3岁的道森(Dawson)以及8个月大的卡兰(Callan)1。在案发前不到三周,她刚从一家精神病院出院 1。在勒死三名子女后,克兰西割伤自己并从二楼窗户跳下 1。她在此次事件中幸存,但腰部以下瘫痪 1。
A Massachusetts jury will resume deliberations on Friday after failing to reach a verdict following hours of discussion on Thursday in the trial of Lindsay Clancy 1. Clancy has admitted to strangling her three children—five-year-old Cora, three-year-old Dawson, and eight-month-old Callan—at their home in Plymouth, Massachusetts, in 2023 1.
Pleading not guilty by reason of a lack of criminal responsibility, Clancy argues that she lost touch with reality due to postpartum psychosis 1. In contrast, prosecutors allege that she deliberately killed her children and then attempted suicide because she was depressed and tired of life 1. The incident occurred less than three weeks after Clancy was discharged from a psychiatric hospital 1. After strangling her children, she cut herself and jumped out of a second-story window, surviving the fall but becoming paralyzed from the waist down 1. The jury now has the option to convict her of murder or manslaughter, or to find her not guilty due to a mental issue 1.
