Courtroom Confidential

Jurors from the Lindsay Clancy trial are speaking publicly about the deliberations that ended in a mistrial. Criminal defense attorney and former prosecutor Joshua Ritter joins former federal prosecutor Neama Rahmani to examine what their accounts reveal, what remains disputed, and what the Commonwealth may do next.

The discussion also explores a larger legal question through the cases involving Nicole Linton, Royce Moser and Corie Walshe: when does severe mental illness change criminal responsibility, and can evidence of planning coexist with psychosis?

After Lindsay Clancy’s 11-1 mistrial, the questions are shifting from what happened during the first trial to what the Commonwealth and defense must do differently in a retrial. Criminal defense attorney and former prosecutor Joshua Ritter explains whether double jeopardy applies, why prosecutors changed their portrayal of Clancy, whether planning rules out legal insanity and how another impartial jury could be selected.

Josh also answers viewer questions about Barry Morphew’s reported bond trouble, D4vd’s request for a public defender, victim-rights counsel in the Tyler Robinson case, Caleb Flynn’s 911 call, the Laura Owens plea deal, missing witnesses, jury deadlocks and more.

The Lindsay Clancy murder trial has ended in a mistrial after seven days of deliberations and more than 36 hours without a unanimous verdict.

Clancy’s defense says 11 jurors were prepared to acquit her, while one holdout juror prevented the panel from reaching a verdict. After the judge declined to remove that juror and the jury reported that it remained deadlocked, a mistrial was declared.

What caused the impasse? Did the holdout juror properly apply the law, and will the Commonwealth put Lindsay Clancy through a second trial?

Criminal defense attorney and former prosecutor Joshua Ritter breaks down the dramatic conclusion, the fight over the lone holdout and what could happen next.

The Lindsay Clancy jury remains in deliberations after reporting that it could not reach a unanimous verdict. Then a woman was arrested outside Plymouth Superior Court after allegedly filming jurors, leading to a warning from the judge and individual questioning of every juror.

Reporting from outside the courthouse, criminal defense attorney and former prosecutor Joshua Ritter explains why the jury’s silence may suggest movement, what happens if jurors again say they cannot agree, and when Massachusetts’ Tuey-Rodriguez instruction could lead to a verdict or mistrial.

Later, Josh breaks down the decision ordering Tyler Robinson to stand trial for the killing of Charlie Kirk and why the death penalty remains on the table.
