Patrick Clancy's 60 Minutes interview aired last night.
But today another headline broke: Lindsay Clancy's defense attorney demands judge investigate black, Catholic, Republican holdout juror who refused to find her not guilty by reason of insanity (The Post Millennial)
Come again?
The Post Millennial reports:
"The filing demanded that the state hand over what juror information it obtained under its Motion for Access to Prospective Juror Information, what background checks it ran, and “whether the Plymouth County District Attorney’s Office has, or since January 1, 2021, has had, any matter in which Juror Doe is a defendant, complainant, or subject, including the 221 prosecution and the abuse-prevention order identified in the Impounded Supplement." Reddington demanded that after a review of the documents, “the Court examine Juror Doe on the record, with counsel present, on three subjects only: the truthfulness of the questionnaire and voir dire answers; the sworn assurance of September 3, 2026; and the use of a mobile telephone or receipt of outside information during deliberations. The inquiry will not touch on the substance of deliberations. The court may also hear from Juror No. 10, limited to what he observed of Juror Doe’s phone use.”"
The media is working overtime to make this juror the villain in this saga.
