Now FOURTH Lindsay Clancy juror makes extraordinary admission after deliberations swayed her vote: ‘I thought she was guilty… maybe I still do’

Daily Mail · 2 hours ago

A fourth juror from Lindsay Clancy's murder trial has come forward to reveal that she initially believed Clancy was guilty but changed her vote to acquit after tense deliberations involving strong personalities. The anonymous juror told CBS Boston she went into the trial unfamiliar with the high-profile case, and although she ultimately voted not guilty, she admitted she "maybe still" believes Clancy was criminally responsible. Her account adds to growing scrutiny of the jury's internal dynamics after the trial ended in a mistrial.

Clancy, 36, was charged with murdering her three children, Cora, five, Dawson, three, and eight-month-old Callan, by strangling them with exercise bands at her Massachusetts home in 2023, and pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity. The 12-person jury deadlocked 11-1, with a single male holdout refusing to acquit despite reportedly having "reasonable doubt," prompting a mistrial and a forthcoming retrial. The latest juror said the holdout clashed with others almost immediately and that most of the room tried to pressure him into changing his position, while she also described being deeply affected by evidence including a 911 call made by Clancy's husband, Patrick, which has not been made public.
