Deadlocked jury in Lindsay Clancy trial resumes deliberations after dispute

Jury starts seven day of deliberations after foreperson told judge juror won’t follow instruction about reasonable doubt

The deadlocked jury in the Lindsay Clancy trial started a seventh day of deliberations on Friday, a day after the jury’s foreperson told the judge a single juror would not follow the court’s instructions about reasonable doubt.

The extraordinary disclosure made in the form of a note delivered to the judge offered the clearest glimpse yet of what may be keeping jurors from reaching a verdict on whether the Massachusetts mother is criminally responsible for killing her three children.
