3 articles · Updated · WCVB Boston · Sep 3

Summary

  • Six days into deliberations, jurors in Lindsay Clancy's murder trial kept working Thursday after twice telling the court they were deadlocked this week.
  • Kevin Reddington said he was bringing Clancy letters of support from "all over the world" and was seen handing a basket of them to her family in court.
  • The 12-member jury must decide whether Clancy, 36, is guilty of killing her three children in 2023 or not criminally responsible because of postpartum psychosis.
  • Judge-imposed special instructions urged jurors to seek consensus after deadlock reports Tuesday and Wednesday, while Reddington said of a possible retrial, "Bring it."
