Judge denies Lindsay Clancy's motion to dismiss case

A judge on Monday denied Lindsay Clancy's motion to dismiss her triple-murder case, clearing the way for a potential retrial. "Because the Court concludes that there was a manifest necessity for a mistrial based on the jury's deadlock, a retrial on the murder indictments does not violate Clancy's right not to be placed in double jeopardy," Judge William Sullivan wrote. Sullivan also denied a motion to investigate the holdout juror in her previous trial, as well as a prosecution request for a gag order. Popular ReadsThis is a developing story.
