Jury returns to tell judge for a third time it cannot reach a verdict in case of Massachusetts woman who killed her children
Judge set to declare mistrial in Lindsay Clancy case after jury deadlocked third time
In asking the judge to hold off on formally declaring a mistrial, Lindsay Clancy’s defense attorney Kevin Reddington said he wanted to file an appeal directly to the Massachusetts supreme judicial court regarding the apparent holdout juror.
“I believe that this is a situation where there is a clear and present danger that this individual, for some reason … is taking a position that’s intractable regardless of proof beyond a reasonable doubt,” Reddington said.
It is with a heavy heart that we report we are unable to come to a unanimous decision and will not be able to.
