Judge William Sullivan declared a mistrial Friday in Lindsay Clancy's murder trial after jurors deadlocked. Their final note: "It is with a heavy heart that we report we are unable to come to a unanimous decision and will not be able to." The panel of nine women and three men deliberated about 38 hours over seven days; jury notes indicated an 11-1 split, with defense attorney Kevin Reddington telling the court the eleven favored acquittal. Reddington twice asked Sullivan to remove the holdout juror, arguing the juror had acknowledged doubt but refused to apply it; Sullivan declined, finding the notes did not show a refusal to follow the law, and Assistant District Attorney Jennifer Sprague said there was no indication the juror was trying to mislead the court. Sullivan then paused his own ruling and gave the defense an hour to seek emergency relief from the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court, which declined. Clancy, 36, does not dispute killing Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months, in January 2023, and argued she was not criminally responsible. A mistrial is not a verdict; Plymouth County District Attorney Timothy Cruz has not said whether he will retry the case. Join our new FB groups page here. Take the poll!
