A lone holdout juror in the trial of Lindsay Clancy, a Massachusetts woman accused of murdering her three children, was the only Black person on the jury, according to a report.
Clancy's attorney, Kevin Reddington, revealed that his client feels strongly about her ex-husband, Patrick, and that theories about their relationship are being explored. Reddington also stated that he will not be seeking a new trial, despite the 11-1 mistrial split.
Reddington laid out his endgame, which involves appealing the mistrial and seeking a new trial. He cited the explosive nature of the mistrial, which was marked by a dramatic 11-1 split in favor of a mistrial.
The Clancy case has raised questions about the mother's mental state, with some speculating about a possible motive involving alleged poisoning and a fixation on the case. Clancy's lawyer has maintained that his client is innocent and that the prosecution's case was flawed.
Meanwhile, another Massachusetts mother, accused of killing her children, is facing a judge in a separate case. The case has drawn comparisons to the Clancy case, which ended in a mistrial last week.
