@washingtonpost: The high-profile trial of Lindsay Clancy ended in a mistrial Friday after a Massachusetts jury could not reach a unanimous decision in the triple-murder case. Judge William Sullivan dismissed the jury shortly after 2 p.m., thanking them for their service after deliberations hit nearly 40 hours in a trial that stretched more than six weeks. Clancy’s case captured the public’s attention for the nature of the crimes and became a cultural touchpoint, putting postpartum mental health issues in the spotlight. She has admitted to killing her three children — Cora, 5; Dawson, 3; and Callan, 8 months — and the jury was tasked with deciding whether to accept her insanity plea. Prosecutors must now decide whether they want to try the case again.

thr trial isn't to prove she did it, she did without question. the trial is for if she can be legally held accountable because of mental issues etc.

"this juror isn't acting right. remove them and put in one that agrees with me." is a precedent I'm not sure you guys *actually* want if you think about it. this is why the judge is rejecting the idea.

all killers are mentally unstable, if mental illness is a valid excuse then serial killers would walk free 🤷🏻

Do people think if she’s found innocent by reason of insanity she’ll be just like… out on the street?? This woman is probably going to spend the rest of her life in a 24/7 mental institution… which for those of you that havent been in a mental hospital.. it’s literal HELL!!!!!!

There is a difference between doubt and reasonable doubt. Judge followed the law.

We don’t even know if those 11 were for guilty or not guilty. Thats just defense’s speculation.

The amount of men in the comments section who clearly dont understand that this was STILL a murder trial and the prosecution had to prove beyond reasonable doubt she did it. They botched this trial trying to play on the jury's emotions. The investigators failed by not doing a proper investigation. Everyone was failed in this case and the public thinks they understand law when all the understand is their own biases.

What’s funny is several men had the same case as she did and their jurors found them guilty within hours
