The trial of Lindsay Clancy, a former nurse accused of murdering her three children, has seen the defence rest on Friday morning. The proceedings are concluding their fifth week.

Ms Clancy, 36, does not deny strangling her children. However, she has entered a plea of not guilty due to a lack of criminal responsibility, employing an insanity defence. She argues that she was experiencing postpartum psychosis, a condition described as rare and devastating, which can go unrecognised and untreated.

Public attention to the case has been significant, particularly on social media.
