Clancy faces charges that could result in life imprisonment if convicted; though, if found not guilty on insanity grounds, she would be committed to a mental health facility. Clancy&#8217;s defense argues she was experiencing a postpartum psychotic state at the time of the murders,while the prosecution claims she knowingly chose to kill her children despite her mental health struggles.The <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >case involves complex issues surrounding postpartum depression<\/a> and mental health management, with Clancy also claiming she attempted suicide following the killings.
