Lone holdout juror in Lindsay Clancy trial was only Black person on the jury, panelist reveals: report

The lone holdout juror in the Lindsay Clancy case was also the only Black person on the jury, one of the panelists revealed in a new interview.

Paula Devlin, one of the outspoken jurors who was part of the 11-person majority in favor of finding Clancy not criminally responsible for strangling her three young children, explained that the lone holdout was a Black man and the only person of color on the jury in an interview with "CBS Mornings" Friday.

"Everybody else was White," she said.

Devlin also said ages among the jurors ranged between 22 and "70-ish."

Judge William Sullivan declared a mistrial last week after jurors could not agree upon a verdict. They told the court they were split 11-1, with the lone male holdout being the only one voting to convict Clancy of first-degree murder for the deaths of her three children, 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson and 8-month-old Callan.
