Holdout juror in Clancy case: no doubts during deliberations

Michael Desronvil, the lone holdout in the Lindsay Clancy triple‑murder trial, says he had no doubts during the days‑long deliberations that produced a mistrial, believing the evidence showed Clancy knew what she was doing. His attorney and client will not speak further, despite an off‑camera interview that surfaced online. With the jury deadlocked, prosecutors must decide whether to retry Clancy; a Sept. 29 hearing is scheduled. The defense had argued postpartum psychosis, and other jurors have criticized Desronvil’s engagement during deliberations.

Holdout juror scrolled through his phone, couldn’t justify stance in Clancy deliberations

Juror Nick Dargie says a holdout in Lindsay Clancy’s trial scrolled his phone, couldn’t back up his stance with evidence, and even appeared to mimic Clancy strangling her children. Dargie voted not guilty by reason of insanity, noting the holdout’s lack of engagement helped produce a mistrial. He also referenced the Massachusetts burden of proof for criminal responsibility and suggested retrial could yield a different outcome, though the DA has not announced next steps.

Lone holdout juror triggers mistrial in Lindsay Clancy case, new details reveal

A juror in Lindsay Clancy’s 2023 murder trial described the lone holdout who prevented a verdict after more than 38 hours of deliberations, noting he refused to engage and even mimicked the killings by tying an exercise band around an empty water bottle; the foreman sent a note to the judge and a mistrial was declared. Some jurors later said the group likely would have found Clancy not guilty by lack of criminal responsibility, while the defense argued psychosis and the prosecution argued against it. Prosecutors must decide whether to retry, with a hearing scheduled for Sept. 29.

Clancy murder trial heads into another deliberation day as jurors stay deadlocked

Jurors in Lindsay Clancy’s Massachusetts murder trial resume deliberations amid a continued deadlock after weeks of testimony.

A defense motion to move all proceedings to open court and a bid to remove a juror were discussed, but the judge has not ruled on the first and denied the juror-removal request. If no unanimous verdict is reached, a mistrial could be declared.
