4:19Now PlayingThe judge in the trial of Lindsay Clancy - the US mother accused of murdering her three children - has officially declared a mistrial, meaning the trial has collapsed without a verdict.
Court will reconvene at the end of the month to decide what happens next.
The decision follows a last-ditch appeal from the defence after the jury said earlier that "with a heavy heart" they were "unable to come to a unanimous decision".
Clancy, 36, is charged with three counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of her three children - Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and eight-month-old Callan - at their Massachusetts home in 2023.
She does not deny killing them, but her lawyer argues she was suffering from postpartum psychosis, and could not distinguish right from wrong.
