What This Clancy Juror Admitted to Is the Worst Revelation Yet – PJ Media– pjmedia.com

When Lindsay Clancy’s trial for killing her three young children ended in a hung jury, the reason for the split became a bigger story than the verdict itself. The lone juror who refused to find Clancy not criminally responsible for her actions was the only black member of the panel, and the pile-on that followed has revealed something far uglier than one holdout‘s stubbornness.

No one ever disputed that Clancy killed her three children. The only question before Plymouth County Superior Court was whether she was criminally responsible or legally insane when she did it.

Since the judge declared a mistrial, several jurors have gone public, and one of them, Paula Devlin, has done more damage to her own credibility than to the holdout’s.

Devlin, who favored the not-criminally-responsible verdict, didn’t even hold back when she attacked the holdout juror. “He was very arrogant, he really did not take anything that anybody said,” Devlin said. “The nurses [on the jury], he tried to ask a question about the medications, and we went back to the report from South Shore Hospital. We had the toxicology report, we could see exactly the amounts. The nurses in the room spoke to that and talked to that. […] They spoke to that specific thing. That was a question that he had, and he just completely disregarded the information that they gave him.”
