Lindsay Clancy Trial: State Trooper’s Bedroom Video Reveals Blood on the Floor, Not the Walls
Massachusetts State Police case officer Joshua McKelligan took the stand today in the murder trial of Lindsay Clancy, the Duxbury, Massachusetts mother accused of strangling her three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 7-month-old Callan — with exercise bands inside the family’s Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. Clancy faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation. She has pleaded not guilty and is mounting an insanity defense, with attorney Kevin Reddington arguing she was in the grip of severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication at the time of the killings.
McKelligan testified that he entered the Clancy home in the early morning hours of January 25 to record video of the master bedroom, footage that was shown to jurors today. The video focused on blood spatters and smears, a knife, and the second-story window Clancy allegedly jumped from after the killings. McKelligan noted a detail that’s going to sit with jurors: the blood was on the floors, not the walls. He also testified to a bloody handprint found outside that window — and to being handed pill bottles directly by Patrick Clancy.
Prosecutors are expected to argue Clancy understood the nature of her actions despite the defense’s mental-health claims. After the killings, Clancy allegedly attempted to take her own life by jumping from that second-story window, leaving her paralyzed from the waist down. Her husband, Patrick Clancy, was out of the home running errands at the time and has since relocated to Manhattan. The trial, underway in Plymouth Superior Court, is expected to last several weeks.
