An infant boy who was allegedly strangled by his mother suffering from post-partum has died three days after his two siblings were pronounced dead.

Eight-month-old Callan Clancy, who was discovered unconscious in his home in Duxbury, Massachusetts, died at 11.18am on Friday, according to the Plymouth County District Attorney’s Office.

Callan was hospitalized on Tuesday after prosecutors found ‘evidence of harm’.

The district attorney’s office earlier this week said Callan’s mother Lindsay Clancy, 32, was suspected of strangling her two older children, Dawson, 3, and Cora, 5.

Dawson and Cora were pronounced dead once they arrived at a hospital.

Callan received CPR at the scene of the crime and was airlifted to a hospital in Boston for treatment.

Prosecutors did not immediately disclose how Callan died and whether Lindsay will face additional charges. The mother had already been charged with two counts of homicide, three counts of strangulation and three counts of assault and battery with a deadly weapon.

Police responded to the home at 47 Summer Street around 6.16pm on Tuesday after a man who was later identified as Lindsay’s husband called 911 and reported that she attempted to kill herself.

Lindsay had jumped off of a second-story window, according to District Attorney Tim Cruz.

Duxbury is a small affluent town that is about 35 miles south of Boston.
