Judge cancels mother’s trial over child deaths
Lindsay Clancy's trial, charged with killing her three children, ended without a verdict after the jury reached a deadlock. Deliberations lasted for 38 hours over seven days, with a split opinion of 11 to 1, which requires unanimity to reach a verdict. The judge declared the trial a mistrial, with the possibility of reconsidering the case before a new jury. The prosecutor stated that a decision regarding whether to re-try the case would be announced soon, while defense attorneys expressed doubt about the availability of jurors who had not previously been exposed to details of the case if a retrial were to take place.
