Watch: Lindsay Clancy appears in court for the first time since mistrial
The BBC's Ione Wells describes what happened in court, as the US mother's defence for the first time argued there was not enough evidence to prove Clancy killed her children.
Lindsay Clancy has appeared in court for the first time since her murder trial fell apart, with lawyers on both sides arguing how to proceed with the case.
Her defence argued that the judge should use his power to declare her not guilty. Her lawyer, Kevin Reddington, also brought a new defence forward arguing there was not enough evidence to prove Clancy killed her children.
Posecutors say the state "met its burden" in proving Clancy's guilt. During court, both sides also resisted the judge's request to decide a potential retrial date, arguing that important legal questions still need to be decided first.
The BBC's Ione Wells breaks down how Lindsay Clancy's first court appearance went after her 4 September mistrial.
