A juror in the trial of Lindsay Clancy is sharing new details about what he said happened inside the jury room that led to a mistrial in the case of the Massachusetts woman facing first-degree murder charges for the 2023 deaths of her three young children.

Nick Dargie, one of the three men on the 12-person jury, told ABC News’ Aaron Katersky that the lone holdout juror who prevented a unanimous verdict did not show any evidence explaining his vote.

“There was several times I would ask him to show us evidence or, you know, describe a witness testimony that helped to prove what he was saying, and … he couldn’t,” Dargie, 25, said in an interview Wednesday.

      It was never about acquittal, it was about spending her life in prison, or a prison for the criminally insane. Your MAGA holdout blew it entirely, and got her released. Good job.

      Once again, virtuosic incompetence at work.

        The holdout was voting guilty. How is the 1 person voting guilty a “MAGA”. Honestly explain that. She killed those kids. Also, should MAGA be added to Godwin’s Law, because FFS.

          Because MAGAs are sociopathic and stupid, and can’t understand that mental illness might explain the behavior.

          Godwin’s Law has been proven to be outdated, by GODWIN himself. MAGA is a corrupt, treasonous, racist, misogynist, pedophilia cult of Domestic Terrorists, and is a genuine ACTIVE National Security Threat. It’s not some dumb conspiracy theory, and if you are trying to promote that concept, you’re a MAGA, too.

          Lose the guilty/not guilty angle, she’s going to jail either way. He was insisting that she wasn’t legally insane when it happened. Despite a mountain of evidence.
