The Lindsay Clancy jury has entered another day of deliberations, and 12 jurors must now reach a unanimous decision on three separate counts in the Lindsay Clancy trial — with five possible verdicts for each.
What are their actual options, and what happens if they can't agree?
Investigative Reporter Anne Emerson is back from vacation and speaks with Family and Criminal Defense Attorney Ally Crouthamel about what is happening behind the scenes as the jury weighs the extensive record, works through notes and testimony, and asks to re-examine physical evidence from that night. Ally breaks down the five verdicts jurors are weighing for each count — first-degree murder, second-degree murder, manslaughter, not guilty, and not guilty by reason of insanity or lack of criminal responsibility under Massachusetts law — explains why the jury could theoretically reach different verdicts for each child but why she believes that would be unlikely, why conflicting mental health testimony could be decisive for reasonable doubt, and what a deadlocked jury could mean, including the prospect of a retrial.
