Jury selection wrapped up Thursday – where a defense attorney also revealed the mom’s ex-husband, Patrick Clancy, is now remarried, according to multiple reports from the courtroom.

Patrick – who discovered the children dead in their Duxbury home in January 2023 – filed a motion this week seeking to prevent the public from hearing his 911 call recording, as well as seeing any photos of the three kids, during the highly anticipated trial.

“The potential harmful and everlasting emotional impact to Mr. Clancy and his family of any public dissemination of such graphic and sensational evidence and exhibits related to his three children is immeasurable,” the motion filed Monday states.

The defense team filed an additional last-minute motion this week in an attempt to prevent more than a dozen cops and firefighters who responded to the horrific murder scene from testifying in the trial, which is slated to last up to two months and feature testimonies of up to 200 witnesses, including Patrick.

After hearing the defense’s arguments and prosecution’s rebuttals on both motions this afternoon, Judge William Sullivan said he will rule on them tomorrow morning, according to East Idaho News.

The 17-person pool was locked in Thursday after more than 400 potential jurors were questioned and excused from the Plymouth County courtroom since Monday – including several who left in tears from having to contemplate the horrific killings.

An 18th potential juror, a woman, was not assigned a seat, but she could potentially be the last member selected, the outlet reported.

Here’s the latest on Lindsay Clancy’s trial for allegedly murdering her three children:

  • Lindsay Clancy’s husband, who divorced her and remarried, pleads with judge not to show graphic pics of murdered children
  • Potential Lindsay Clancy jurors keep fleeing because of how horrible the case is: ‘I just don’t know if I can handle it’
  • New photos reveal state of Mass. mom who strangled 3 kids — as experts detail what will ultimately decide case
  • Lindsay Clancy’s husband expected to testify on her behalf during mom’s trial for allegedly murdering their 3 young kids

The judge previously said he wanted 18 people to serve on the panel – 12 of whom would be selected when it’s time to render a verdict – but the jury selection process faced several setbacks when three jury members requested to be removed from the case earlier this week.

“I just don’t know if I can handle being on the jury,” one emotional young man, who had previously been selected to serve on the jury, told Judge Sullivan Wednesday.

Two more jurors were cut loose on Thursday.

Their reasons for seeking excusal weren’t publicly disclosed, but the Boston Globe reported that one man seemed concerned about the financial strain of missing work during the lengthy trial – which the judge has projected to last up to two months.

He could be heard saying, “50 bucks a day” – the daily compensation the state pays each juror starting on the fourth day they serve in court, the outlet reported.

The wheelchair-bound 35-year-old – who is expected to argue that she was in the throes of a postpartum psychotic state during the killings – appeared to frown and gaze intensely at potential jurors as the arduous process dragged on.

Opening statements from the defense and prosecution teams were slated to begin Monday.

The highly anticipated trial will hinge on whether jurors believe the mom – paralyzed from a suicide attempt – was suffering from postpartum psychosis worsened by a cocktail of antipsychotic medication when she allegedly committed the crime, experts previously told The Post.
