Lindsay Clancy's lawyer spoke on Thursday.
He said she was very sick in her mind.
She strangled her three children in their home in Massachusetts.
The lawyer's name is Kevin Reddington.
He blamed the medicines and the care she got.
He said she was a loving mother before her mind got worse.
Prosecutors say Clancy did it on purpose.
They say she sent her husband out to do errands.
Then she killed her children.
Then she tried to kill herself.
Prosecutor Jennifer Sprague said this case is not about mental health care in the country.
She called that idea a distraction.
Clancy said she is not guilty.
She says she is not responsible for her actions.
She did not speak in court.
Jurors will talk about the case after the final words.
If she is guilty of murder, she will go to prison for life.
If she is not guilty, she may go to a state hospital for her mind.
Clancy is 36 years old now.
She got help from many doctors before the killings.
She even went to a hospital for her mind.
Less than three weeks after she left, she killed Cora, Dawson, and Callan Clancy.
They were 5, 3, and 8 months old.
Then she jumped from a second-floor window.
Now she cannot move her legs.
Her lawyer said she lived for her kids.
He showed jurors a "wish box" from her honeymoon.
