Lindsay Clancy's case has captured worldwide attention. The labour and delivery nurse is on trial for the alleged murder of her three young children – Cora, Dawson and baby Callan.

She has entered a plea of not guilty by reason of insanity. The defence argues that postpartum psychosis, not criminal intent, was the driving factor.

It's the kind of case some can't bear to read about, while others can't look away.

On this episode of The Quicky, host Tamsin Rose speaks with a US reporter covering the Massachusetts trial to unpack what is unfolding before the jury and why the case has struck such a deep nerve.

It's a heavy story, and one that raises hard questions about how a woman who says she was asking for help ended up here.

Listen to the full breakdown now on The Quicky.
