Story summary

The holdout juror in Lindsay Clancy's murder trial faced a domestic violence charge in September 2021, according to police records obtained by CBS News. The unnamed juror allegedly grabbed his wife by the throat and threw her into a dresser; his 13-year-old nephew called 911. He was initially charged with one count of domestic violence assault and battery but pleaded not guilty, with the charge later dismissed. Clancy's trial ended in a mistrial on September 4, 2023, after the jury deadlocked three times. The juror's actions have raised questions about impartiality in high-profile cases.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.
