Several close friends of Lindsay Clancy, the Massachusetts nurse who has pleaded not guilty to killing her three young children, have spoken to The Post about their longtime friend. The friends, who have known Clancy for years, described her as a devoted mother and a caring person, expressing shock at the events.
Clancy, 32, is accused of killing her children—5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 8-month-old Callan—in their Duxbury home on January 24, 2023. She has been held without bail and pleaded not guilty to murder charges. Her case has drawn widespread attention, with discussions about postpartum mental health.
The friends, speaking on condition of anonymity, said they had no warning signs of the tragedy. They emphasized Clancy's struggles with postpartum depression and anxiety, which they believe may have contributed to the incident. They hope the case raises awareness about maternal mental health.
Legal proceedings continue, with Clancy's next court date pending. The case remains under judicial review, and no trial date has been set.
