Lindsay Clancy's defense attorney asks judge to investigate the lone holdout juror after mistrial
Lindsay Clancy's defense attorney Kevin Reddington filed a motion asking the judge to investigate holdout juror Michael Desronvil over alleged cellphone use during deliberations and truthfulness on a juror questionnaire. The motion followed a September 4 mistrial in which 11 jurors were ready to find Clancy not criminally responsible by reason of insanity, while Desronvil believed she was guilty. Desronvil's attorney Edward Paltzik announced plans to file a bar complaint against Reddington, calling his actions unconstitutional.
