马萨诸塞州母亲凯文·雷丁顿，这名被控杀害其子女的母亲的律师，周一告诉法官，他希望明年春天进行新的审理。
Kevin Reddington, an attorney for the Massachusetts mother accused of killing her children, told a judge that he wants a new trial next spring.
马萨诸塞州母亲林赛·克兰西案周一的听证会结束，检方未就其是否打算重新审理她给出明确承诺。克兰西于2023年勒死其三名子女。
A hearing Monday in the case of Lindsay Clancy, the Massachusetts mother who killed her three children by strangulation in 2023, ended without a firm commitment from prosecutors on whether they intend to retry her.
马萨诸塞州高等法院法官威廉·沙利文询问普利茅斯县助理地方检察官珍妮弗·斯普拉格，州政府在9月4日宣布审理无效后，是否已决定如何进行。
Massachusetts Superior Court Judge William Sullivan asked Plymouth County Assistant District Attorney Jennifer Sprague whether the state had made a decision about how it would proceed after a mistrial was declared on Sept. 4.
斯普拉格表示，“这将是一次重审”，但检方无法明确宣布，因为沙利文尚未就与审理无效相关的几项动议作出裁决。克兰西的律师凯文·雷丁顿批评检方迟迟未做决定。
Sprague said that “it would be a retrial” but that prosecutors could not declare that definitively because Sullivan has yet to rule on several motions related to the mistrial. Kevin Reddington, an attorney for Clancy, criticized the prosecution’s lack of a decision.
“球在克鲁斯先生手里，”雷丁顿对法官说，指的是普利茅斯县地方检察官蒂莫西·克鲁斯。“我不会让这名女子再被监禁一年、两年或三年。我要审理，我要由你来审理，我要在今年春天审理。”沙利文预计将在11月16日的听证会上就未决动议作出裁决，并可能确定审理日期。周一，他提出安排一场理论上的3月审理的想法。
“The ball is in Mr. Cruz’s court,” Reddington told the judge, referring to Plymouth County District Attorney Timothy Cruz. “I am not going to have this woman incarcerated for the next year, or two, or three. I want a trial and I want it with you and I want it this spring.”Sullivan is scheduled to rule on outstanding motions — and potentially set a trial date — at a Nov. 16 hearing. On Monday, he floated the idea of scheduling a theoretical trial for March.
“我在想3月份的某个时间，如果我们能做到的话——或者如果可能，更早一些——但我认为3月份可能比较现实，”沙利文说。
“I’m thinking sometime in March, if we could do that — or earlier, if possible — but I think March is probably realistic,” Sullivan said.
克兰西的案件引发了关于产后心理健康的广泛辩论。克兰西承认杀害了5岁的科拉、3岁的道森和8个月大的卡兰，但她称曾听到声音命令她杀死他们和她自己。她的律师将她的行为归因于产后精神病，并要求陪审团以精神错乱为由判她无罪。审理无效是因为一名陪审员拒绝判她无罪。
Clancy’s case sparked widespread debate about postpartum mental health. Clancy admitted to killing Cora, 5; Dawson, 3; and Callan, 8 months, but she has said she had heard voices telling her to kill them and herself. Her lawyers attributed her actions to postpartum-induced psychosis and asked jurors to find her not guilty by reason of insanity. The mistrial was declared after one juror declined to find her not guilty.
