Dynamite Charge Aims to Break Deadlock in Clancy Trial
TL;DR Summary
With Lindsay Clancy’s murder trial deadlocked after two deliberations, the judge issued the Tuey-Rodriguez instruction (the 'dynamite charge'), urging jurors to continue deliberations and signaling that another jury would not necessarily reach a different verdict; if the deadlock persists, a mistrial could be declared and the DA may pursue a second trial.
