The arrest warrant for a Massachusetts nurse, who's accused of strangling her three young children before attempting suicide, includes two counts of murder, three counts of strangulation or suffocation, and three counts of assault and battery with a deadly weapon.
Lindsay Clancy, 32, remains in the hospital and will be arraigned "as soon as possible," Plymouth District Attorney Tim Cruz said during a press conference Wednesday.
Two of the three children - Cora Clancy, 5, and Dawson Clancy, 3 - died. The attack's sole survivor, a seven-month-old infant boy, remains in critical condition in a Boston hospital.

The children were found "unconscious with obvious signs of trauma" in the Clancys' Duxbury home after her husband's 911 call for medical help.
There was speculation based off recent Facebook posts that Clancy suffered from postpartum depression, but Cruz declined to say if this was a contributing factor.
The Plymouth District Attorney's office and the Duxbury police haven't responded to requests for updates on the health of Clancy or her youngest son.
