(The Federalist) Kellie Farina’s frustration was palpable, her disdain still fresh as she described her unyielding fellow juror. Farina said the man just didn’t get it. Despite all of the evidence (the toxicology report, the “expert” testimony, the “entertaining” defense attorney), he refused to join the 11 jury members who had long before agreed that Lindsay Clancy was not guilty of murdering her three young children.
The 11 angry men and women on the jury agreed that Clancy was legally insane when she used exercise bands to strangle to death Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months — one by one in the Clancy basement. She then attempted to take her own life. But after 40 hours of deliberations, the holdout wouldn’t budge.
