Juror who blocked Lindsay Clancy verdict disputes fellow jurors' claims: report

Michael Desronvil said he never doubted prosecutors proved Lindsay Clancy knew what she was doing, as the state weighs a possible retrial.

  • On Wednesday, juror Michael Desronvil publicly defended his vote for conviction in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial, rejecting fellow jurors' claims that he wavered on reasonable doubt during deliberations.
  • Massachusetts Judge William Sullivan declared a mistrial on September 4 after the 12-person jury deadlocked 11-1 over whether Clancy was criminally responsible for killing her three children in January 2023.
  • Fellow jurors Roni Carlson and Paula Devlin alleged Desronvil "completely disregarded the information that they gave," while reports emerged he faced an alleged domestic violence charge in 2021.
  • Desronvil retained attorney Edward Andrew Paltzik, who stated "please pray for him and help us protect him," as Plymouth County prosecutors weigh whether to retry the case.
  • The next court hearing is scheduled for September 29, though Fox News contributor Jonathan Turley warned prosecutors face a difficult task persuading a future jury to unanimously reject an insanity defense.
