Lindsay Clancy’s lawyers ask judge to investigate lone holdout juror

Lawyers for Lindsay Clancy have asked a judge to investigate the conduct of the lone juror who favored convicting her of murder in the deaths of her three young children, according to the Guardian.

The defense motion asks the court to question juror Michael Desronvil about alleged cellphone use during deliberations and about the accuracy of answers he gave on a pretrial questionnaire and during questioning by the judge before the trial ended.

The supplied report says Desronvil sided with prosecutors and argued that Clancy understood what she was doing. The request concerns the juror’s conduct; it does not by itself establish that any misconduct occurred.
