PLYMOUTH, Mᴀss. — Lindsay Clancy is “nervous” and “scared” her defense attorney, Kevin Reddington, told reporters on his way out of court Thursday.

“She’s doing alright. She’s nervous, she’s scared,” the lawyer said as he left.

Reddington, however, appeared upbeat and confident ahead of the jury’s much-anticipated verdict.

“I think that they have to weigh all of this evidence, and I believe that the government ultimately has not proven their case,” he said.

Judge William Sullivan dismissed the jury for the day around 4 p.m. and told them to come back at 9 a.m. Friday to continue deliberations.

“It’s been a long day for everyone,” Sullivan said.

The 12-person jury, composed of nine women and three men, deliberated for just under four hours Thursday, but was unable to reach a verdict.

The jurors remained largely ᴅᴇᴀᴅpanned during Reddington’s closing remarks but appeared more engaged when prosecutor Jennifer Sprague addressed them.

A female juror was even brought to tears during Sprague’s closing arguments.

The woman — who sat in the first jury seat and wore glᴀsses — wiped her nose and her eyes several times as the prosecutor accused Clancy, 36, of coldly and cruelly strangling her three children to death at their Mᴀssachusetts home in 2023.

Prosecutors said she planned the killings and ensured her husband, Patrick Clancy, was out of the house when she strangled Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and 8-month-old Callan with exercise bands.

Several jurors leaned forward in their seats as Sprague walked them through the harrowing details of the killings, including her description of Clancy’s son Dawson’s face, which was riddled with popped blood vessels after he was strangled.

Others in the jury box sat motionless as Sprague methodically recounted the kids’ final moments — and argued that Clancy knew exactly what she was doing.

Clancy has pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity — and claimed she was suffering from severe postpartum psychosis and hallucinated a man’s voice telling her to carry out the horrific killings.

After strangling her kids, she slit her wrists and neck, and threw herself out of a second-story window of her Duxbury home — leaving her permanently paralyzed from the waist down and wheelchair-bound.

Her legal team has argued she experienced a psycH๏τic break as a result of being overmedicated — she had six medications in her blood after the killings, according to testimony — and was a “darn good mother” before she murdered her children.

She faces four possible outcomes while the jury deliberates.

The jury could ultimately find Clancy guilty of first-degree murder of her three young children, where each charge carries a mandatory sentence of life in prison without the possibility for parole.

In the second outcome, the jury could convict Clancy of the lesser charge of manslaughter and could end up behind bars for a maximum of 20 years for each charge.

Manslaughter in the Bay State can be either voluntary or involuntary.

However, some outside observers don’t believe a manslaughter conviction is likely, with former prosecutor Neama Rahmani predicting Clancy’s insanity defense will prevail.

“I predict a defense verdict of not criminally responsible,” Rahmani previously told The Post.

“I was surprised [the judge] agreed to give manslaughter instruction. It doesn’t seem to fit the facts of this case.”

If the jury finds Clancy not guilty by reason of insanity, she would be committed to a mental hospital until she’s deemed no longer a danger to herself or others.

The fourth option, if the jury is unable reach a verdict, could result in a mistrial — and the entire court process would commence again.
