Mass. Judge Declares Mistrial in Lindsay Clancy Trial, Grants Hour for Appeal

After nearly six weeks of trial and a third consecutive deadlock, a Massachusetts judge signaled a mistrial in Lindsay Clancy’s triple-murder case and gave the defense an hour to file an emergency appeal; the defense sought to remove a holdout juror and asked the state Supreme Judicial Court for relief, but the stay was denied, potentially ending the current deliberations while Clancy’s mental-health defense—centered on postpartum psychosis—faces scrutiny alongside prosecutors’ claim that she deliberately planned the killings.
