Lindsay Clancy defense seeks acquittal after mistrial; holdout juror under scrutiny

–

Neutral summary

Lindsay Clancy's attorney, Kevin Reddington, filed a motion to dismiss the case and acquit her after the jury failed to reach a unanimous verdict, resulting in a mistrial. The jury was deadlocked 11-1, with the majority favoring a finding of not guilty by reason of lack of criminal responsibility, while the lone holdout reportedly had a history of domestic violence allegations and an active restraining order. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis offered the holdout juror "asylum" in Florida, accusing the media of a smear campaign against him.
