Lindsay Clancy's Return to Court Tuesday Could Determine What Happens Next in the Case
Defense lawyers seek dismissal and a not-guilty finding, while also pressing for records and questioning a lone holdout juror after the 11-1 deadlock.
- On Tuesday, Lindsay Clancy returns to court in Plymouth for a hearing on several defense motions in her murder case following the September 4 mistrial.
- The proceedings follow a mistrial declared on September 4, after a jury remained deadlocked 11 to 1 on whether Clancy should be convicted of murder.
- Attorney Kevin Reddington is pushing for "a required finding of not guilty" while also seeking to investigate the holdout juror and arguing the case should be dismissed on Double Jeopardy grounds.
- Edward Paltzik, attorney for holdout juror Desronvil, criticized the defense efforts, stating his client "didn't have any doubts" and that Reddington is "attacking the right to trial by jury."
- Legal experts warn these motions face significant hurdles, while a University of New Hampshire Survey Center poll found 43% of Massachusetts residents believe prosecutors should retry Clancy.
