Lindsay Clancy strangled her three children to death. Her lawyer Kevin Reddington told the jury on Thursday that she was in a deep psychotic state.

He argued that she was a loving mother before her mental health got worse.

In his closing argument, Reddington said, "Because of those damn drugs and the poor medical care she received."

He mentioned the mental health providers she saw and the medications she was prescribed months before the killings.

The prosecution claims that Clancy acted on purpose.

Prosecutor Jennifer Sprague said she sent her husband on an errand. Then she killed the children and tried to kill herself.

Sprague told the jurors that this case is not about America's mental health care system.

She added that the defense's argument is a distraction.

The prosecution stressed that the focus should be on whether Clancy could tell right from wrong. This was at that time.

Clancy's mental state is the core of this trial.

There is a deep split among the public about whether she should face criminal responsibility.

During more than four weeks of testimony, jurors heard opposing views.

Medical experts disagreed about her mental state after the birth of her third child.

Clancy's mother and sister testified that she became anxious, paranoid, and felt suicidal.

Clancy, now 36, checked herself into a mental hospital a few months before the killings.

Less than three weeks after leaving, she killed her children.

Reddington pushed back against the prosecution's claims.

He said the prosecution tried to describe Clancy's suicide attempt as a "fake suicide."

He added that after she started seeing a psychiatrist, life was no longer good.
