Lindsay Clancy’s mistrial: Letters – Latest News
The Issue: The homicide trial of Lindsay Clancy ending in a mistrial attributable to one juror’s holdout.
What is mistaken with this nation? Have Americans misplaced all morality, righteousness, compassion and sanity (“Held up by holdout,” Sept. 4)?
How might the jury not come to a unanimous resolution that Lindsay Clancy is guilty? She confessed. Case closed.
I commend the one holdout for standing his ground. Hopefully, all of the woke people come to their senses subsequent time round. I wager they consider OJ Simpson was harmless.

Cora, Dawson and Callan Clancy deserve higher. Lindsay’s psychosis conveniently confirmed up the day of the murders. At no different time in her many interactions with medical professionals did it happen.
Not solely does proof level to her committing the crime, she admitted she did it. Crazy or not, the youngsters are lifeless at her hand. Try her again and put her away so she can not hurt some other kids.

Clancy admitted to murdering her three kids. A higher atrocity is tough to even think about.
Her destiny ought to be commensurate together with her crime. The relaxation of her life ought to be in jail or a mental health facility.
For those that assume Clancy ought to get off simpler: When will you be having her over your home to babysit your kids?

She murdered her three harmless kids. I don’t care how loopy she is or is pretending to be, she killed her children.
She ought to rot in a jail cell for the remaining of her life. To the jury made principally of morons who clearly left college after fifth grade: What if these have been your grandchildren?

It’s horrible that The Post’s entrance web page locations blame on one juror for throwing Clancy’s trial into chaos. He has heard all of the proof and sees Lindsay as guilty. He is doing his obligation as a juror by giving a verdict befitting the crime.
Apparently justice now means caving in to an indignant mob of sympathizers and no justice for the harmless kids killed by their own mom?
Are you setting the precedent for future jurors in future trials to call their verdict based mostly out of concern of going towards others? That’s not jury obligation, it’s intimidation.

After he was unable to get his accused killer shopper off the hook as a result of of one courageous juror, Kevin Reddington stooped to calling that juror a liar.
Then, outdoors the courthouse, this large shot slandered Plymouth District Attorney Timothy Cruz for supposedly not realizing the names of Clancy’s murdered kids.
Reddington, who informed the world he sees Clancy as a daughter, put a goal on the backs of that juror and DA. He ought to be hit with ethics expenses, if not two civil defamation lawsuits.

If I used to be a little child and my mother thought it was OK for a mother to kill her children, I believe I’d be a little bit frightened. “Will mommy kill me tonight?”

If the jury had the option of a second-degree homicide verdict, it will’ve seemingly ended the Clancy trial as soon as and for all.
Looking back, these concerned in Clancy’s help system clearly noticed no motive to monitor her on the day she killed her kids. If anybody felt the youngsters have been at risk, they might have eliminated them from her care.
Clancy claims her illness motivated the killing, however that’s one thing we’ll by no means actually know. What we do know is that she dedicated maternal filicide and has been combating for her life with attorneys, medical professionals and sympathizers ever since. Sadly, she by no means gave her infants a likelihood to dwell their lives.
Justice will likely be served ultimately, however in actuality, no one will ever come out the winner of this case.

I don’t care what the law says about affordable doubt or the protection’s declare that Clancy was mentally unstable when she killed her kids. She is guilty of homicide. Period.
