Jurors could not reach a unanimous verdict in Lindsay Clancy’s murder trial after spending parts of more than seven days deliberating. The presiding judge formally declared a mistrial. He relayed the details of a note from the jury which stated, “With a heavy heart, we report we are unable to come to a unanimous decision. We will not be able to.” Soon after, at the request of Clancy’s defense attorney, Kevin Reddington, Sullivan gave the defense an hour to pursued an emergency stay from the Supreme Judicial Court. The emergency request was denied.
Ahosis at the time.

After six days of deliberating, the Lindsay Clancy jury remains deadlocked. After lunch on Thursday, the jury submitted a question, but the judge did not read it aloud. He did reiterate the legal definition of reasonable doubt, sending jurors back to deliberate.
Defense attorney Kevin Reddington told the court one juror “refuses to listen to the law” and moved to remove that juror. Judge William Sullivan declined.
