Lawyer Shares Pic of Holdout Juror in Lindsay Clancy Mistrial Holding Baby Daughter: ‘American Hero’
The juror’s attorney says threats and harassment followed the mistrial, and a fundraiser has raised more than $370,000 for security and legal costs.
- Following the September 4 mistrial, holdout juror Michael Desronvil has identified himself publicly, maintaining he stood alone against 11 other jurors who found Lindsay Clancy not criminally responsible for killing her three children.
- Clancy, a former nurse, admitted strangling her three children in January 2023, though her defense argued she suffered from postpartum psychosis. Judge William Sullivan declared a mistrial after seven days of deliberations produced no unanimous verdict.
- Court records reveal Desronvil faced a 2021 assault charge, later dismissed, and was subject to an active restraining order taken out by his teenage nephew last year, raising concerns among legal analysts about juror vetting.
- Attorney Edward Paltzik claims Desronvil has faced death threats and harassment since the mistrial; a crowdfunding campaign titled 'Stand with the Juror' has raised over $374,000 for security, legal fees, and lost income.
- Plymouth County District Attorney Timothy Cruz has not announced whether he will retry Clancy, with a status hearing set for September 29 that may clarify the case's legal path forward.
