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 who caused a mistrial in her murder case.
- Judge William Sullivan declared a mistrial on September 4, 2026, after jurors deadlocked 11-1, with eleven members favoring a verdict of not criminally responsible due to mental illness.
- Michael Desronvil, the lone holdout, stated through his attorney Edward Paltzik last week that he 'didn't have any doubts' that Clancy was guilty, countering defense claims of juror misconduct.
- Reddington's motion seeks juror questionnaires and phone records from deliberation days to investigate potential cell phone use, with a hearing scheduled for September 29.
- Separately, Clancy's legal team filed a motion on Monday requesting the court dismiss the murder charges entirely, arguing the judge should have replaced the holdout juror instead of declaring a mistrial.
