World2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported1h ago
The jury in the trial of Lindsay Clancy has entered its seventh day of deliberations following two reports to Judge William Sullivan that they are unable to reach a unanimous verdict. The ongoing deadlock has stalled the high-profile proceedings as the court navigates the impasse.
Legal tensions escalated on Thursday when the defence team formally accused a single holdout juror of obstructing the verdict process. The court is currently working to resolve the dispute regarding the juror's conduct while the jury continues its efforts to reach a decision.
