Michael Desronvil, a juror in the Lindsay Clancy trial, was the sole holdout who refused to acquit the defendant, resulting in a mistrial in a high-profile case involving the deaths of three young children. Clancy had pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity, claiming she was suffering from postpartum psychosis when she killed her children, but Desronvil's refusal to agree with the other 11 jurors who favoured acquittal prevented a unanimous verdict. The mistrial has generated significant public attention, with Desronvil reportedly facing death threats and doxxing for his role.

A crowdfunding campaign for Desronvil has raised over $360,900 to cover security, legal fees and lost work, with the juror sharing a photograph with his newborn daughter via his attorney. Fellow jurors have publicly criticised Desronvil's approach during deliberations, with juror Paula Devlin stating he failed to provide coherent explanations for his guilty verdict and instead focused on enforcing conversational rules rather than engaging meaningfully with their arguments. Clancy, a former labour and delivery nurse, did not deny killing her three children—Cora, aged five; Dawson, aged three; and Callan, eight months—at their home in Duxbury, Massachusetts on 24 January 2023, but argued her mental state at the time warranted an insanity acquittal.
