Child abuse

While Clancy admitted to killing her children, the defense has argued that due to postpartum psychosis and overmedication, she should not be held criminally responsible.

The woman, 33, and the man, 43, both from central Israel, are accused of numerous sexual offenses against the four children. The woman’s daughters were between 8 and 12-years-old at the time.

"I have never abused our daughter," Miller said, framing the allegations as made as part of a battle for custody over their daughter.

The childcare workers allegedly assaulted the children under the care, who were between six months and one-and-a-half years old, treating them as if they were objects.

The child had been admitted to the hospital under suspicion of having drunk cleaning fluid, after which hospital staff noticed a deterioration in his condition, the police stated.

The police investigation, conducted alongside the Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency), uncovered photographic evidence proving that the suspects possessed and carried illegal firearms.

Hope is a rigorous, strategic framework built on early intervention, structured support, and a collective refusal to let trauma dictate a child's future.

Our children's futures depend entirely on our willingness to build bridges of trust, unique to every neighborhood, across Israel.

Police reported cases of child sexual abuse, endangerment in a motor vehicle, and domestic abuse within a span of two weeks in late June and early July 2026.

Police raided the daycare center in late April and said they found dozens of children aged between two and six years old with their hands and feet tied. Some children were tied to doors.
