When the Jury Can’t Agree

The Lindsay Clancy trial reaches a critical impasse as jurors tell the judge they cannot reach a unanimous verdict and are sent back to continue deliberating. Sean examines what the deadlock could mean for the remaining charges, why the location and makeup of a jury can matter, and whether the defense used in this case could become a blueprint for future murder trials. He also turns to allegations from inside New York Attorney General Letitia James’ office that prosecutors were directed to pursue Trump allies, raising new questions about political lawfare and equal justice.
