Story summary

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.), an outgoing lawmaker, called for Lindsay Clancy to be publicly executed in Plymouth, S.C., after Clancy allegedly killed her three young children. Mace stated that Clancy deserved the death penalty and should face a "public execution" as a warning to other women not to kill their kids. The incident occurred in Plymouth, with Clancy likely facing a new trial following a hung jury earlier this month. Eleven jurors agreed with the defense's argument for not guilty by reason of insanity, but one juror prevented a unanimous decision. President Trump described the situation involving the children's deaths as "very sad," emphasizing that there is no winner in such cases. Mace also criticized another person’s plea regarding Clancy’s case as an ugly publicity stunt.
