The jury's options in Lindsay Clancy's murder trial

Lindsay Clancy's murder trial has gripped the American public for the last five weeks.

The 36-year-old former nurse killed her three small children in the basement of their family home in Massachusetts.

Charged with three counts of first-degree murder, she does not dispute killing her two sons and daughter in 2023.

But her lawyer argues she was suffering from postpartum psychosis at the time, and therefore could not distinguish right from wrong.

The prosecution, on the other hand, argues Clancy made a calculated, intentional decision to kill them and knew right from wrong in that moment.

On Monday morning, a jury of nine women and three men will continue to deliberate, with several options before them:

This hinges on the postpartum psychosis defence - her legal team argued that Clancy hallucinated a voice after giving birth to her youngest child that told her to kill the children.

Expert witnesses told the court how severe this illness can be, and family members testified about Clancy's state of mind.
