Over the first two days of jury selection, seven women and five men were chosen to serve on the jury.
One juror who was chosen on Monday was dismissed on Tuesday. No official reason was provided for the juror’s departure.
Clancy, a former Massachusetts labor and delivery nurse, is charged with three counts of murder in connection with the January 2023 deaths of her three young children at the family’s Duxbury home.
Prosecutors allege Clancy strangled her children before attempting to take her own life. She survived but was left paralyzed.
Her defense team is expected to argue that Clancy was suffering from severe mental illness and was overmedicated while being treated for postpartum depression and other mental health conditions at the time of the killings. They plan to pursue an insanity defense.
