Judge William Sullivan said he plans to excuse the jury until Monday morning.

The jury has been deliberating for more than 10 hours.

Deliberations are continuing in the murder trial of Lindsay Clancy. The jury has had the case for around five hours.

After a brief sidebar, Judge William Sullivan sent the attorneys away. He did not disclose the reason for the sidebar.

Kevin Reddington, Clancy’s attorney, told reporters while leaving the courthouse that the jury has asked to see two bags of pill bottles and the knife she used to cut herself during her suicide attempt.

The jury in the triple murder trial of Lindsay Clancy resumed its deliberations Friday morning about whether the Massachusetts mother should be held criminally responsible for the strangulation deaths of her three children.

The 12 jurors – nine women and three men – are considering whether Clancy should not be held criminally responsible because she was allegedly in the throes of postpartum psychosis when she killed her children, or if she acted intentionally to murder them.

In addition to weighing Clancy’s state of mind against the elements of first and second-degree murder, jurors also have the option to consider whether her actions constitute manslaughter.

The jury in the murder trial of Lindsay Clancy has been sent home for the day.

They have been deliberating for more than three hours. Deliberations resume Friday at 9 a.m.
