Clancy is facing first-degree murder charges in the deaths of 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson and 8-month-old Callan. The defense says she was overmedicated and suffering from an extreme episode of postpartum psychosis when she strangled the children.

A full day of testimony is expected on Friday in Plymouth Superior Court.

You can watch the trial live in the embedded video, on CBS News Boston or on the CBS News Boston YouTube page while court is in session.

The first witness on the stand Friday morning was Kimberlee Hardy, the former director of the Kingsbury Club, a fitness center in Kingston. She testified briefly about Cora and Dawson spending time in the playroom there in 2022 and early 2023 and that Lindsay Clancy "seemed happy to be with them" and always picked them up on time.
