The reporting

A neutral summary of the key facts most outlets agree on, drawn from reporting across the political spectrum.

Judge William Sullivan declined Thursday to remove a juror in Lindsay Clancy’s murder trial after the jury foreperson reported that one panelist was refusing to follow instructions on reasonable doubt. The jury, split 11-1 according to courtroom statements, was sent home without a verdict after more than 35 hours of deliberations and is due back Friday. Sullivan re-instructed jurors on reasonable doubt after previously giving a Tuey-Rodriguez, or “dynamite,” charge. Clancy, 36, admits strangling her three children but argues she is not guilty by lack of criminal responsibility.
