Lindsay Clancy’s Lawyer Asks Judge to Investigate Holdout Juror
Defense seeks to preserve jury records and question a holdout juror after a deadlocked panel prompted a mistrial in the murder case.
- On Friday, Lindsay Clancy's attorney, Kevin Reddington, filed a motion requesting a 'limited inquiry' into the holdout juror whose vote caused a mistrial in her murder case.
- Following a 11-1 deadlock, a mistrial was declared on Sept. 4 after eleven jurors favored acquitting Clancy on grounds of mental illness, while one juror sided with prosecutors.
- Michael Desronvil, the holdout juror, stated through his attorney Edward Paltzik last week that he 'didn't have any doubts' that Clancy knew what she was doing.
- Reddington's motion seeks juror questionnaires and phone records from deliberation days to investigate potential cell phone use, with a hearing scheduled for Sept. 29.
- Separately, Clancy's legal team filed a motion Monday requesting dismissal of the murder charges, arguing the judge should have replaced the holdout juror rather than declaring mistrial.
