Judge William Sullivan declared a mistrial after the 12-member jury could not reach a unanimous verdict in the murder trial of Lindsay Clancy.
The defense counsel of Ms Clancy violated every form of judicial ethics in his effort to expose and pressure the one male juror who refused to accept a not guilty verdict and stood his ground. We should not know the identity of the jurors; however, the female foreperson worked with defense lawyer Kevin Reddington to assemble pressure against the juror who would not acquit Clancy.
What took place in this Massachusetts courtroom and jury deliberation undermines the foundation of the system of trial by jury. During actual deliberations defense counsel was openly pressuring Judge Sullivan to remove the juror who would not change his position. A mistrial had to be declared, and Attorney Reddington then went outside and publicly called for retaliation against the male juror who would not accept the position of the female jurors. This is quite remarkable.
Massachusetts – After seven days of deliberation, the judge in Lindsay Clancy’s murder trial declared a mistrial because the jury was unable to reach a unanimous verdict, with one juror refusing to join the eleven others.
Defense attorney Kevin Reddington asked Judge William Sullivan to remove the holdout juror, but Sullivan refused. However, Sullivan granted Reddington an hour to request an emergency stay from a higher court on the mistrial declaration. This would delay the start of a new trial.
Clancy’s case will likely be re-tried with a new jury; until then, she will remain in a psychiatric facility in northeastern Massachusetts. (more)
By the time you have read this, toxic female leftists will likely have publicly identified the name of the lone juror, and soon thereafter the rage of the American pussy hat crowd will organize to destroy the male juror. Jury secrecy and sanctity violations this extreme are horrific and destabilizing to the entire judicial system.
I have avoided jury duty after being disqualified for having the belief that the death penalty was appropriate in some circumstances. Maybe that’s par for the course, but I knew then that the entire system could be rigged.
I personally have a hard time accepting that our “Society” is so screwed up that this woman, who murdered her children in a calculated, methodical, way could become a “cause” for other women to bond over. That’s a scary, sick, trend.
“I personally have a hard time accepting that our ‘Society’ is so screwed up…”
Accept it. You will be safer than if you refuse to accept it.

Why this weakling judge didn’t hold this grisly shyster in contempt is beyond me.
>> Why this weakling judge didn’t hold this grisly shyster in contempt is beyond me
Vicious mob rule in Massachusetts may have something to do with it. In Massachusetts such mob rule injustice goes all the way back to 1692-3 with the Salem witch trials.
They missed one.
Surely some demonic pure evil going on ..
THAT is an EXTREME understatement!
Served on juries in different states. Never witnessed a prosecutor, or defense attorney, behave in such an unprofessional, threatening manner toward a juror.
🫣😡
“We know who you are! How dare you stick to your convictions and vote accordingly!”
🗳️
Now let’s celebrate all the recent rash of copycat mothers murdering their children.
👶👶👶
I don’t give a rat’s rear end how this woman is ultimately charged.
⚖️
Bottom line — she snuffed the life out of three innocent victims.
😇😇😇
Why wasn’t the jury sequestered?
The judge is a buffoon.
The attorney alleges the juror lied under oath by not applying the reasonable doubt standard in the way the attorney preferred. That is rich, considering the attorney appears to have violated his oath of admission to practice law and may well face charges and disbarment. You can bet the juror will be identified, and then harassed, get death threats, and experience all manner of severe problems from the raging leftist mob. That attorney may have just gifted that lone juror with a really good lawsuit. Of course, being Massachusetts, it might take an actual holy miracle to win the lawsuit, and also to see any accountability delivered to that attorney.
I guess I don’t understand how the judge didn’t reprimand the defense lawyer for doing that? It’s disgusting how these judges are helping people literally get away with murder with little to no accountability for their part! The corruption in the judicial system is off the charts. This case is just another example of how we are fighting against such evil! Satan is clearly having a good day watching this debacle. May God bless that lone-sane juror for trying to get justice for those 3 innocent souls.
Let the news replace “her 3 children” with ”her 3 Golden Retreivers”. Bet there would’ve been a different outcome then. These people are sick!
Did anyone watch the trial and hear all the details?
I love Jesus, Im conservative. I’m not a crazy pink hatted nasty woman and I watched every day of this trial.
By all testimony from friends and co workers, family members, her own husband and mother in law and nanny this woman was the best…best friend, worker, mother, wife…
You can see the kids look genuinely happy and well taken care of in all the pictures.
This mother got progressively worse with post partum after each pregnancy. She was begging for help and didn’t get it.
She went to Dr’s and emergency rooms each prescribing a different drug. She couldn’t sleep she couldn’t eat and had high levels of anxiety.
She was turned away by 2 suicide hotlines because she didn’t have a “plan” set up to kill herself but she wanted to kill herself.
She was turned away from a post partum program because she had to many drugs in her system.
She tells her husband she’s hearing voices and wants to harm the kids and he leaves her alone with them.
Yeah she went crazy. A perfectly happy loving mother went absolutely psychotic and killed her beautiful kids and slashed her wrists and neck and jumped out a second floor window.
And through all the trial with all the details, 11 jurors saw, I guess what I saw and felt.
And the one hold out…according to the note that was sent to the judge said he thought there WAS reasonable doubt that the state did not prove she was in her right mind but he still wouldn’t vote with the other 11.
I think the pink shirts are out there because of mental health not that its ok that she killed her kids.
And why is it ok to point out all these shooters on drugs and what the drugs do to them but its not ok to say wow she was on heavy drugs AND she had post partum psychosis.
I didn’t know we had a multidisciplinary expert on here! You would think she’d have snapped out of her “episode” as she committed the third murder as she strangled the life out of her last remaining child. The last thing those kids saw as they expired was their mother standing over them.
I’ll bite… so why didn’t she just kill her damn self instead of murdering her children?
Well. You changed my mind right there.
So it’s ok – since her husband shoulda – and her doctor shouda – and they shoun’t a –
Ok. Now I understand.
Wish I didn’t.
But I do.
Reddington let his ego get in the way of his professional responsibility. The Pink Harpies applauded him every time he came to court. The publicity went to his head.
He took the verdict to be a personal insult to his advocacy abilities, when it was just twelve human beings trying to wade through a complex and emotionally charged case. Sometimes the best lawyer in the world can’t win a case if the evidence isn’t there.
When I started out as a young lawyer in a firm that represented policyholders for some insurance companies, I got the small claims cases filed by people who wanted their deductible back, and claimed out policyholder caused the accident. I lost a lost of them in the beginning, and used to coming dragging back to the office. The older lawyers would laugh at me, and say, “Got to toughen up, kiddo, and roll with the punches.” And I eventually did.
A juror justifying Clancy killing her children could very possibly killed their own child via an abortion. Justifying Clancy’s guilt justifies their own guilt.
As Riddington calls for retaliation against the one juror, he should contemplate that he is walking on a two-way street.
The prosecutor could (and should) file a complaint with with the trial judge or the MA Board of Bar Overseers.
The defense attorney reminds me a bit of Tim Waltz.
This insane event will scare normal, rational people from volunteering to be on a Jury.
How perverted.
And the 11 were wrong.
They know it.
We know it.
Even the mentally unbalanced Clancy Lady knows it.
