Judge denies acquittal motion in Lindsay Clancy triple-murder retrial
Guardian WorldLO·US·1 day ago
Lindsay Clancy returned to court as her attorneys argued a retrial would violate double jeopardy, following a mistrial declared September 4 when one juror blocked a unanimous verdict. The judge must decide whether to enter a not-guilty verdict or order a retrial. This procedural ruling will determine the case's trajectory and could set precedent on double-jeopardy limits after hung juries.
