Judge William Sullivan declared a mistrial Friday in Lindsay Clancy's murder trial after jurors deadlocked. Their final note: "It is with a heavy heart that we report we are unable to come to a unanimous decision and will not be able to." The panel of nine women and three men deliberated about 38 hours over seven days; jury notes indicated an 11-1 split, with defense attorney Kevin Reddington telling the court the eleven favored acquittal. Reddington twice asked Sullivan to remove the holdout juror, arguing the juror had acknowledged doubt but refused to apply it; Sullivan declined, finding the notes did not show a refusal to follow the law, and Assistant District Attorney Jennifer Sprague said there was no indication the juror was trying to mislead the court. Sullivan then paused his own ruling and gave the defense an hour to seek emergency relief from the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court, which declined. Clancy, 36, does not dispute killing Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months, in January 2023, and argued she was not criminally responsible. A mistrial is not a verdict; Plymouth County District Attorney Timothy Cruz has not said whether he will retry the case.Join our new FB groups page here.

For the second time in two days, jurors in Lindsay Clancy's murder trial told Judge William Sullivan they could not agree: "After much deliberation, we are still unable to come to a unanimous decision." Sullivan responded Wednesday afternoon by reading the Tuey-Rodriguez charge — Massachusetts' version of the Allen or "dynamite" instruction, used as a last resort with a stuck jury. He told them there is no reason to suppose the case will ever go to twelve people more intelligent, impartial or competent, while reminding them the burden rests with the Commonwealth. Under state law he cannot give it again without the jury's consent. They deliberated into the evening and go into a sixth day, roughly 28 hours in. Clancy has pleaded not guilty to three counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months. Separately, Dawn Light, 56, of Sutton, pleaded not guilty to aggravated intimidation after allegedly filming jurors leaving the courthouse; Sullivan then questioned all eighteen jurors individually and found each remained fair and impartial. Also: Tiger Woods resolved a March DUI as reckless driving, a second offense. And in Georgia, a jury convicted Katelyn Goble of murdering Morgan Bauer in about thirty minutes.Join our new FB groups page here.

A Las Vegas jury convicted Duane "Keffe D" Davis of first-degree murder Monday in the 1996 killing of Tupac Shakur, deliberating about three hours after nine days of testimony. Davis, 63, is the only person ever charged and the only surviving occupant of the Cadillac from which the shots were fired. Prosecutors never alleged he pulled the trigger, arguing he obtained the gun and orchestrated the shooting as retaliation for a casino-lobby beating of his nephew hours earlier — and built the case largely on Davis's own police interviews, docuseries appearances and 2019 memoir. He did not testify. Shakur's sister wept in the gallery; family members embraced prosecutors. Davis told Judge Carli Kierny he intends to appeal. He faces up to life in prison. Also: jurors in Lindsay Clancy's murder trial enter a fourth day after roughly seventeen hours without a verdict, weighing five options after asking Friday to review her prescription bottles and the knife from her suicide attempt. And in Georgia, prosecutors rested against Katelyn Goble in the 2016 killing of 19-year-old Morgan Bauer.Join our new FB groups page here.

A Duval County jury convicted Mario Fernandez Saldana of first-degree murder and solicitation to commit a capital felony Wednesday, after just under four hours of deliberation, in the February 2022 ambush killing of Jared Bridegan. Bridegan, 33, a Microsoft senior design manager and father of four, was shot after stopping to move a tire from a dark Jacksonville Beach road with his two-year-old daughter in the back seat. Prosecutors said Fernandez Saldana solicited Henry Tenon — his former tenant, recently evicted and with no money in his accounts — to kill Bridegan to resolve a custody fight and to allow his wife, Shanna Gardner, to become trustee of her family trust. The state had no murder weapon, no DNA and no eyewitness. Fernandez Saldana, 38, faces an automatic life sentence, with a sentencing date to be set October 5. Gardner has pleaded not guilty; her jury selection begins Monday. Also: after five weeks and 84 witnesses, the Lindsay Clancy trial went to the jury Thursday — and Judge William Sullivan granted the defense a manslaughter instruction over the Commonwealth's objection, giving jurors an option between first-degree murder and a finding of not criminally responsible. And in Las Vegas, prosecutors rested against Duane Davis after 25 witnesses.Join our new FB groups page here. Take the poll!Join the Daily Crime & Justice community on social media!

Closing arguments are expected today in Lindsay Clancy's murder trial, after Judge William Sullivan denied a defense motion for a mistrial. Prosecution expert Dr. Kirk Heilbrun, testifying that Clancy told each child "go to God" as she killed them, described her Catholic upbringing and began asking whether suicide is a mortal sin before defense attorney Kevin Reddington objected — the second time the phrase has surfaced in the trial. Reddington called it "intentional misconduct." Sullivan refused the mistrial but told jurors the defendant's religion was "absolutely an inappropriate area of testimony… It is to be stricken." Heilbrun testified Clancy retained awareness that killing was illegal, and that she reported the voice only during the killings — never before or after. Clancy has pleaded not guilty to three counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months. Eighteen jurors will be narrowed to twelve for deliberations. Also: both sides have rested in Jacksonville in the Mario Fernandez Saldana murder-for-hire trial over the killing of Jared Bridegan; the defense called two witnesses and Fernandez Saldana did not testify. And in Las Vegas, jurors in the Duane Davis trial heard a recording made through a live studio microphone.Join our new FB groups page here.

A Texas judge denied Karmelo Anthony's motion for a new trial Saturday, leaving intact his murder conviction and 35-year sentence for the April 2025 stabbing of 17-year-old Austin Metcalf at a Frisco track meet. Retired Kaufman County Judge Michael Chitty ruled in a one-page order without explanation, two days after a hearing at which Anthony's former trial attorneys testified that a dispute over an unwritten "gentleman's agreement" with prosecutors kept him off the witness stand. Chitty was assigned to the case after visiting Judge Sid Harle recused trial judge John Roach Jr. over a post-verdict television interview. Collin County DA Greg Willis said his office expected the ruling; defense attorney Russell Wilson said the case will continue on direct appeal to the Fifth Court of Appeals. Also: the defense rested Friday in Lindsay Clancy's murder trial after forensic psychiatrist Dr. Phillip Resnick testified she was "frankly psychotic" and described her as "a puppet and someone else was pulling the strings." Prosecutors called rebuttal witness Dr. Avram Mack, who found a major depressive episode and no psychosis. Closing arguments are expected this week. And in Las Vegas, jurors in the Duane Davis trial heard from the man who took the last known photograph of Tupac Shakur alive.Join our new FB groups page here.

Defense expert Dr. Donald Condie, a clinical and forensic psychiatrist who reviewed Lindsay Clancy's medical records, testified that her providers' notes show postpartum depression progressing to postpartum psychosis — and acknowledged she never reported hearing voices to any treating provider before the killings. On cross, he testified she may not have reported everything out of concern about losing access to her children or risking her nursing license. Defense psychologist Dr. Paul Zeizel, who has seen Clancy 45 times since the killings, then testified that she told her then-husband by phone from the hospital that she heard a male voice telling her she had no choice but to kill her children and herself, and that there was no evidence she was faking. Zeizel testified he did not coach her; his account corroborates testimony Patrick Clancy gave earlier as a prosecution witness. Clancy has pleaded not guilty to three counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months, and contests criminal responsibility. Also: in Ohio, Ashley Flynn — a 37-year-old substitute teacher and middle school volleyball coach in Tipp City — was shot in her home in February. Her husband, Caleb Flynn, a season 12 American Idol contestant, has pleaded not guilty to eleven counts including aggravated murder. Both sides have now filed competing motions over pretrial publicity ahead of a September 17 trial. And in Las Vegas, a Clark County medical examiner testified about Tupac Shakur's injuries and a reluctant witness testified under court order in the murder trial of Duane Davis, who has pleaded not guilty.Join our new FB groups page here.

A Los Angeles County grand jury has indicted Nick Reiner on two counts of first-degree murder in the December 2025 stabbing deaths of his parents, filmmaker Rob Reiner, 78, and photographer Michele Singer Reiner, 70, adding special circumstance allegations of multiple murder and murder by lying in wait — allegations that make the case death-penalty eligible. Reiner, 32, has pleaded not guilty and is presumed innocent; District Attorney Nathan Hochman's office has not said whether it will seek death. Separately, the fiduciary overseeing a $1.5 million trust his parents opened for him has invoked California's slayer statute to block his access, which he sought in order to rehire private counsel. Also: in Plymouth, Massachusetts, Judge William Sullivan told jurors the Commonwealth would rest its case against Lindsay Clancy after roughly three weeks and some seventy witnesses; the defense case, built on postpartum psychosis, is next. In Las Vegas, opening statements began in the murder trial of Duane Davis in the 1996 killing of Tupac Shakur. And in South Carolina, Judge Debra McCaslin ruled Alex Murdaugh's April 2027 retrial cannot be held anywhere in the 14th Judicial Circuit, with a new venue to be set later.Join our new FB groups page here.

Luigi Mangione pleaded guilty Friday morning in Manhattan federal court to two counts of stalking resulting in death in the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. There was no plea agreement and no agreed sentencing range. Reading a statement to U.S. District Judge Margaret Garnett, Mangione said he shot Thompson and that he knew what he was doing was illegal; his attorney Karen Friedman Agnifilo said he has accepted full responsibility for Thompson's death. Members of Thompson's family, including his mother, sat in the front row alongside UnitedHealthcare executives. Garnett found Mangione fully competent to plead and told him he faces a maximum of life in prison, that he would serve at least 85 percent of any term, and that a state sentence could be added to it. U.S. Attorney Jamie McDonald said prosecutors intend to seek the maximum. Within the hour, Mangione's lawyers moved to dismiss the New York murder case on double jeopardy grounds, arguing dual prosecutions arising from the same event violate his rights. That state trial is set for September 8. Sentencing is December 18.Join our new FB groups page here. Take the poll!Join the Daily Crime & Justice community on social media!

A psychiatric nurse practitioner testified that she raised the possibility of an underlying bipolar disorder with Lindsay Clancy and her then-husband on December 6, 2022 — about seven weeks before Clancy killed the couple's three children. Rebecca Jollotta, of South Shore Hospital's perinatal behavioral health program, cited Clancy's insomnia without tiredness and her adverse reactions to antidepressants, but testified Clancy's symptoms did not fully meet the diagnostic criteria at the time. Clancy has since been diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Jollotta also testified Clancy scored 23 on the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale in November 2022, and that Clancy never indicated a plan to harm herself or her children. Clancy has pleaded not guilty to three counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months, and contests criminal responsibility. Judge William Sullivan also declined for now to let a former McLean Hospital social worker testify about conditions at the facility, telling the courtroom the trial "is not Tripadvisor." Also: jury selection continues in Las Vegas in the Tupac Shakur murder trial, with opening statements expected Monday.

Kevin Reddington cross-examined Dr. Jennifer Tufts on Monday, day ten of Lindsay Clancy's murder trial in Plymouth Superior Court. Tufts, the psychiatrist who treated Clancy from September 2022 through the day before the killings, testified that all fourteen of their appointments were by telemedicine and that she had never met Clancy in person until the trial. Reddington questioned her experience level, her online biography, her medication decisions, and what she knew of Clancy's care elsewhere. Tufts also confirmed she is a defendant in the medical malpractice suits Lindsay and Patrick Clancy have filed. Clancy has pleaded not guilty to three counts of first-degree murder in the January 2023 deaths of Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan; she does not dispute causing their deaths and argues she was not criminally responsible due to postpartum psychosis. Also: in Florida, Sarah Boone is serving life without parole for the second-degree murder of Jorge Torres Jr., who died inside a zipped suitcase in 2020.

Prosecutors in Lindsay Clancy's murder trial called the family's former nanny, who told jurors Clancy was a devoted mother and described Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months — testimony the Commonwealth is using to argue Clancy was organized, oriented and in command of her household. Clancy has pleaded not guilty to three counts of first-degree murder in the January 2023 deaths at their Duxbury, Massachusetts home and argues she was not criminally responsible due to postpartum psychosis. Jurors also heard DNA and toxicology evidence, and the state was expected to call the medical examiner's office. Also: in Pensacola, Florida, Timothy Kramer, 53, is on trial for first-degree premeditated murder and aggravated animal cruelty in the July 2024 shooting death of his estranged wife, Rosa Maria Kramer, 47, who had left him two weeks earlier and returned to collect her belongings. He has pleaded not guilty; his defense concedes he fired the shots and argues self-defense. And in Honolulu, Gerhardt Konig — convicted in April of attempted manslaughter in the cliffside attack on his wife, Arielle Konig — is seeking a new trial, arguing the jury misunderstood its instructions.

Jurors in Lindsay Clancy's murder trial heard her private journals read aloud Monday, with State Police and the Commonwealth using them to argue she was oriented and self-monitoring, and defense attorney Kevin Reddington reading from the same pages to argue she was a woman asking for help. Clancy, a former labor and delivery nurse, has pleaded not guilty to three counts of first-degree murder in the January 2023 deaths of Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months, at their Duxbury, Massachusetts home; she does not dispute causing their deaths and contests criminal responsibility. Jurors also heard from a Brigham and Women's forensic psychiatrist who evaluated Clancy two days after the killings. Also: actor and director Timothy Busfield goes before a New Mexico judge August 25 on a motion to quash the Bernalillo County indictment charging him with four counts of criminal sexual contact of a child under 13. Busfield has pleaded not guilty, denies the allegations, and is presumed innocent; his lawyers argue the grand jury proceeding was improperly conducted.
