Watch Live: Closing arguments begin in Lindsay Clancy's murder trial

As of 8:10 a.m, there were more than 90 people in line waiting to get into the courthouse in Plymouth, Massachusetts.

This is a mix of media members and the general public. I would say the split is about 60% media, 40% general public.

Some people have brought their children here and have lawn chairs to wait in line.

A few members of the public are wearing pink as a tribute to Lindsay Clancy. I see something familiar faces in the public who were in court Wednesday as well.

When court ended for the day on Tuesday, Lindsay Clancy's defense attorney Kevin Reddington was asked by WBZ-TV's Aaron Parseghian what to expect from his closing argument.

"Fireworks," Reddington said. "I don't know what I'm going to say until I say it. I don't write them out, I don't type them out. I don't run them by anybody. I just say what comes to my mind."

If convicted of first-degree murder, Lindsay Clancy faces life in prison without the possibility of parole.

Clancy could also be found guilty of lesser charges, including second-degree murder or manslaughter.

If the jury decides she was not criminally responsible for the deaths of her children, she will be sent to a state psychiatric hospital in Massachusetts.

The jury could also reach a straight not guilty verdict. That is highly unlikely though because her attorney said Clancy admits killing her children and he has not presented any evidence that she didn't do it.

Judge William Sullivan is overseeing the trial in Plymouth Superior Court in Plymouth, Massachusetts.

During the final days of the trial, Sullivan was asked to declare a mistrial after a prosecution witness began discussing Lindsay Clancy's religious beliefs. The judge denied the defense's request for a mistrial, but he reprimanded the prosecution and later told jurors they should not consider the testimony.
