  Speaker 1: Judge William Sullivan declared a mistrial in the Lindsay Clancy case,
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: three jurors are coming forward to reveal the frustration inside
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: the deliberation room. On Friday, September 4th, Judge Sullivan declared
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: a mistrial after jurors deciding Clancy's criminal responsibility in the
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: strangulation deaths of her three young children failed to reach
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: a unanimous verdict after over six days of deliberation. The jury,
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: made up of nine women and three men, began deliberating
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: on Thursday, August 27. Three times they informed Judge Sullivan
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: they were hopelessly deadlocked at 11-1. Now, three female jurors,
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: a retired chef, A retired fifth-grade special needs teacher and
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: a woman who worked for government contractors are speaking directly
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: to NBC10 Boston about the single holdout juror who allegedly
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: admitted he had reasonable doubt. The foreperson described to NBC10
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: Boston the exact moment she thought a final verdict had
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: been reached.
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: He admitted he had reasonable doubt, and I started filling
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: out the forms.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: I was so excited.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: I actually, there were three forms I had to fill out,
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: and I started filling them out. I wrote my signature
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: on each one.
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: And then he said, but I'm.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: Still not going to say that she's not guilty by
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: reason of insanity.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: A second juror disclosed to NBC10 Boston that the male
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: holdout juror refused to interact with the rest of the
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: group throughout the entire deliberative process.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: We read to him on numerous occasions the definition of
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: reasonable doubt from Judge Sullivan's instruction. He actually said one
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: day in the end... Well, why don't we have the
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: judge come in and read it again? And we were like, no,
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: we have it in front of us. But he had
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: the hardest time getting off the fact that Lindsay viciously
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: killed her children.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: A third juror described the holdout to NBC 10 Boston
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: as very arrogant and completely closed off to the evidence.

  Speaker 2: He really did not take anything that anybody said. The nurses,

  Speaker 2: he tried to ask a question about the medications, and

  Speaker 2: we went back to the report from South Shore Hospital.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: We had the toxicology report.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: We could see exactly the amounts. The nurses in the
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: room spoke to that.
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: There were nurses on the jury. Yes.
• 2:31
