The case now turns0:21on a single question0:22>> [music]0:23>> because the act itself is not disputed.0:25The Massachusetts triple homicide on0:27Summer Street in Duxbury [music]0:28has moved to its final stage after0:30coverage across August 17th to 21st.0:33Lindsay Clancy, also rendered Lindsay in0:35transcripts, [music]0:36a former labor and delivery nurse at0:38Massachusetts General Hospital, age0:40about 35 [music] to 36 at trial, has0:43admitted strangling her three children0:44with exercise bands in the basement. The0:47victims appear in the record with0:48variant [music] spellings as Cora and0:49Cora, Callan and Ken. Research verifies0:52Cora and Callan with Cora and Ken as0:54transcription errors. Callan died days0:57later after being placed on life0:59support.
