Dr Phil says Lindsay Clancy mistrial a 'teachable moment' on postpartum psychosis: 'There was a failure here'

Dr. Phil McGraw stated that the Lindsay Clancy case represented a "psychiatric emergency that wasn't treated as such" during a recent discussion. McGraw identified gaps in the handling of Clancy's mental health prior to the incident. Clancy was convicted in 2024 of killing her three children in Massachusetts and received a life sentence without parole; a mistrial was declared in a subsequent legal proceeding related to the case.
