Prosecutors say Clancy had never mentioned the word 'psychosis' until she met with a forensic psychologist hired by her defense team.
On the phone, her husband asked her what voices she heard, prosecutors said.
Dr. Paul Zeizel, the forensic psychologist evaluating Clancy, says she may have never told anyone she'd heard voices in the past."Telling you to do things that are malevolent and you believe those voices telling you that you need to follow what they say," said Zeizel."That's when things go downhill.""It's a very common psychotic symptom," said Dr. Kellie Wallace."Auditory hallucinations are one of the more frequent ones we see.
"And when those voices are commanding you to do things, it's incredibly frightening, and the only thing to get them to stop is to do the thing," said Wallace.
