The judge has declared a mistrial in Lindsay Clancy’s triple-murder trial after the jury deliberated for seven days without reaching a unanimous verdict. So, now what happens?
Judge William Sullivan told the parties Friday afternoon he’d like to retry the case later in the fall. In the meantime, the judge scheduled a status conference for the end of the month.
Clancy’s attorney Kevin Reddington initially said he wants to get the second trial underway as soon as possible, ideally the week after next.
Judge Sullivan told Reddington, “My thinking is to try it sooner rather than later, but I’m not sure that sooner.” The judge said he’d check the courthouse schedule and his own.
The lead prosecutor said she’d be out of the state for the next two weeks but didn’t offer an opinion on trial scheduling beyond that.
