Jury Sequestration Pushed in Clancy Case | Salt Lake City News

Lindsay Clancy’s lawyer is demanding jury sequestration in a potential retrial — an extreme, rarely-used tactic to shield jurors from outside news — even though he admits it likely wouldn’t have changed the outcome. The original mistrial ended after seven days of deliberation, with 11 jurors siding with not guilty by reason of insanity, but one holding out for guilty. Clancy faced murder charges for killing her three children, with prosecutors arguing intent and defense claiming she suffered from postpartum psychosis. Meanwhile, prosecutors are still deciding whether to retry her, while another woman, Dawn Light, faces jury intimidation charges for allegedly photographing jurors — adding layers of legal drama and public scrutiny to an already high-stakes case.
