Eighty witnesses. Five weeks. Three hundred exhibits. And Lindsay Clancy's jury still can't agree on the one question that decides everything — was she psychotic when her three children died, or wasn't she.
Judge Sullivan gave them the Tuey-Rodriguez instruction, the blunt version of there is no better jury coming after you, go finish the job. They went back into the room. They're still deadlocked. And while they were stuck, a 56-year-old woman was arrested outside Plymouth Superior Court for allegedly filming jurors as they left the building. She told police she'd come to see Lindsay. Investigators found deleted video of the jury on her phone anyway.
Sullivan had to question every single juror, one at a time, before deliberations could resume — all while the panel was already telling the court they might not reach a verdict at all.
The defense conceded the physical facts a long time ago. Kevin Reddington told the court outright that his client killed her children; the exercise bands and the DNA aren't in dispute. What's in dispute is criminal responsibility, and in Massachusetts, once the defense raises insanity, the burden shifts to the prosecution to prove she was sane. That's the needle twelve strangers have been trying to thread for days.
If they can't get there, nothing is resolved. Lindsay Clancy stays charged with three counts of first-degree murder, still held at Tewksbury State Hospital, still paralyzed from the waist down, while Plymouth County DA Timothy Cruz decides whether to try this case all over again.
Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins Tony to unpack the deadlock, the parking-lot arrest that nearly derailed it further, and what either outcome means for a case this fractured.
