A psychiatrist with Delaware's Nemours Children's Health resigned following his testimony in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial, an official with the health system confirmed.
Avram Mack was a witness for the prosecution who evaluated Clancy ahead of the trial. He testified in the Plymouth, Massachusetts, courtroom on Aug. 21 and remotely via Zoom on Aug. 24.
"Avram Mack is no longer employed by Nemours Children's Health, he resigned on Monday, August 24th," Nemours spokesperson Shelley Meadowcroft said in an email.
The Patriot Ledger, which is covering the trial, reported Mack told jurors he believed Clancy understood what she was doing to her children was wrong.
Clancy is charged with three counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of her children: 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson and 8-month-old Callan.
Mack testified that he saw no evidence of psychosis in Clancy's medical records and he would not have diagnosed her as bipolar, reported the Patriot Ledger, part of the USA TODAY Network.
Clancy's defense attorney Kevin Reddington reportedly had a contentious cross-examination of Mack over the definition of "postpartum depression."
The jury began deliberations Aug. 27 but was dismissed for the weekend.
