Three jurors from the Lindsay Clancy murder trial, which ended in a mistrial last week, have come forward to discuss what happened with NBC10 Boston’s Sue O’Connell.
The jury’s foreperson, who wrote the note indicating concerns about a juror expressing reasonable doubt but not agreeing to a verdict, is among the jurors who spoke to NBC10 Boston on Tuesday.
In the exclusive interview, which lasted over an hour, they talked about the defense and the prosecution and the lengthy deliberations, as well as confirming what observers had inferred from the foreperson’s note, that there was a holdout juror, who left them frustrated — they said he wouldn’t listen to the rest of the panel.

“He admitted he had reasonable doubt and I started filling out the forms, I was so excited,” the foreperson said.
But she said that the holdout juror added, “But I’m still not going to say that she’s not guilty by reason of insanity.”
NBC10 Boston has attempted to reach out to the juror whom the others described as holding out.
They said they argued so much during deliberations that the six alternate jurors could hear them and thought they were fighting a lot, but they were determined to come to a verdict.
This is a breaking news story that will be updated with more from the interview, and we’ll share extended video as well.
