Defensa cuestiona la atención psiquiátrica de madre acusada de matar a tres hijos

En Duxbury, Massachusetts, los abogados de la defensa interrogaron a la psiquiatra Dra. Jennifer Tufts sobre el tratamiento que recibió Lindsay Clancy, alegando que solo se le brindó atención limitada por video y un régimen de medicación insuficiente, mientras la fiscalía siguió centrada en los presuntos homicidios. En etapas anteriores del juicio, el jurado visitó la casa donde se produjeron las muertes y la fiscalía presentó fotografías de autopsias, el diario escrito por la madre y análisis toxicológicos que mostraron niveles no tóxicos de fármacos psiquiátricos.

Testimonios de familiares, una antigua niñera y el abuelo resaltaron la ansiedad, el insomnio y los supuestos episodios de psicosis posparto de Clancy, y ambas partes hicieron referencia a una hospitalización psiquiátrica de cinco días semanas antes de los crímenes. La fiscalía sostiene que los asesinatos fueron intencionales, mientras la defensa busca peritos que respalden la alegación de psicosis posparto.
