Harrowing photos shown to a jury Monday showed Lindsay Clancy attached to a breathing tube and suffering from numerous injuries from her botched suicide attempt after killing her three children.
Clancy’s neck appeared bloody and in a brace in photos taken in the hospital after the mom sliced her wrists and threw herself out of a second-story window, paralyzing herself, after fatally strangling the kids on Jan. 24, 2023.
Another image showed her bloodied wrists.
Kevin Reddington, Clancy’s defense attorney, also presented grisly photos of the crime scene.
In one of those photos, a bloodied kitchen knife sat next to a cup emblazoned with the message, “Because kids.”
“You see the white residue inside the cup — that’s where the pills were crushed up,” Clancy’s attorney, Kevin Reddington, told the jury, referring to the medication that Clancy allegedly ingested before throwing herself out the window.
A sleep medication bottle and sleep-aid spray were also seen in that photo of a nightstand. Clancy “couldn’t sleep for months,” the lawyer said.
Another showed pools of blood covering a bedroom floor.
