Lindsay Clancy’s defense attorney described her as a ‘damn good mother’ who did ‘nothing wrong’ before she strangled her children to death during emotional closing arguments. 

Kevin Reddington spoke to the jury for about 50 minutes on Thursday morning before the prosecution did the same. The 12 jurors will then be sent out to deliberate. 

Clancy, 36, has admitted to killing her children but pleaded not guilty to murder by reason of insanity, citing postpartum psychosis, and is seeking to be committed to a state mental health facility rather than face a prison sentence.

Reddington vehemently defended his client throughout the trial, but further emphasized his belief during his closing statement. 

‘You know from looking at the objective evidence in this case, this young lady did nothing wrong in her life,’ Reddington said. 

‘She was a nurse, a daughter, a wife, and a damn good mother.’ 

Reddington also made a point of mentioning Cora, Dawson, and Callan multiple times. 

‘When you consider what is at stake here, Cora, Dawson and Callan,’ Reddington said as he picked up a poster displaying a family picture.

‘They are the victims in this case,’ Reddington added. ‘This prosecution has ripped the soul of this defendant.’

He said that what ruined the family was medication and the ‘lousy medical care that she got.’

Her attorney went on to blame Clancy’s mental health decline on when she started to see her psychiatrist, Dr Jennifer Tufts. 

Tufts testified as a witness during the trial. She prescribed Clancy a cocktail of psychiatric medications and admitted to never meeting her in person, only on telemedicine calls.
