Lindsay Clancy mistrial holdout juror taps lawyer who represented Trump

The lone juror whose holdout forced a mistrial in the Lindsay Clancy case has retained a lawyer who once represented President Donald Trump, the attorney said. One legal scholar following the case said the move signals the juror is ready to "stand up for himself." Clancy, 36, faced three counts of first-degree murder in the slayings of her children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson and 8-month-old Callan — who were discovered strangled at the family's home in January 2023. Judge William Sullivan declared a mistrial Sept. 4 after jurors could not agree on a unanimous verdict, with the panel split 11-1. Attorney Edward Paltzik told Fox News Digital Friday that he is representing the holdout juror, Michael P. Desronvil.
