The Trial of Lindsay Clancy - Did She Have Capacity?

The Trial: USA

About this episode

Did Lindsay Clancy understand the wrongfulness of killing her three children, and could she control her actions? 


As the defence rests its case and the prosecution begins its rebuttal, we examine the opposing conclusions of both side’s psychiatric experts, battling in court over whether or not Lindsay Clancy should be responsible for killing her three children.


We also break down the unexpected and shocking moment when one expert’s testimony caused the defence to call for a mistrial.
