Story summary

Kevin Reddington, the lawyer for Lindsay Clancy, requested a Massachusetts judge to investigate the conduct of the lone holdout juror, Michael Desronvil, who voted against acquitting Clancy in her trial which ended this month. Eleven jurors were prepared to clear Clancy of criminal responsibility due to postpartum psychosis when she murdered her three children: five-year-old Cora, three-year-old Dawson, and eight-month-old Callan. However, the holdout juror's vote led to a mistrial declared by Judge William Sullivan on September 4th. Reddington is asking for an inquiry into Desronvil’s mobile phone metadata during jury deliberations and has also requested records of his calls and texts between 8:00 AM and 4:30 PM each day the jury was deliberating, which are prohibited under Massachusetts law.
