Massachusetts Mother Lindsay Clancy Accused of Researching Ways to Kill Before Strangling Three Children

Lindsay Clancy allegedly used her cellphone and a personal journal to document her mental state, feelings about her children, and research on ways to kill prior to murdering her three children while she was overmedicated and suffering from postpartum depression, revealing a severe mental health crisis that was untreated.

Lindsay Clancy is charged with first-degree murder and strangulation for the killing of her three children. She attempted suicide after the incident and is now paralyzed from the waist down.
Lindsay's husband, Patrick Clancy, revealed that she had been dealing with anxiety and taking several medications, including Zoloft, Valium, Trazodone, Ativan, Klonopin, Prozac, and Seroquel. He also noted his concerns about her addiction to Benzodiazepines and the negative side effects.
Authorities have found two of Lindsay's notebooks, in which she listed the medications she was taking and recorded her thoughts, including suicidal sentiments.
Authorities have also obtained a warranty to seize Lindsay's blood and urine samples to determine what medications she was consuming at the time of the killings. One of the prescribed medicines, Trazodone, is known to increase suicidal thoughts.
Lindsay's defense revolves around her suffering from postpartum depression and being overmedicated with psychiatric drugs at the time of the killings.
