Day 7 Starts With Another MajornFight Over the Holdout Juror

Day 7 did not start quietly. Kevin Reddington renewed his objection over the jury note and argued that the issue goes beyond one juror simply disagreeing with the other 11. His position is that the note raises a much more serious question: whether that juror is refusing to follow the law and the reasonable-doubt instructions given by Judge Sullivan. The defense and prosecution both argued their positions, and the judge went back to reassess the note and the issue surrounding that juror. Reddington also raised Article 12 of the Massachusetts Declaration of Rights as part of his argument — tying this directly to Lindsay Clancy’s constitutional right to a lawful and impartial jury process. This is not just a fight over a holdout anymore. It is now a fight over whether the jury is actually deliberating under the law they were instructed to follow. And Reddington is clearly not letting that issue go. 👀⚖️ The judge ultimately declined to remove the juror yesterday, but the defense has continued pressing the issue as deliberations move into Day 7. #LindsayClancy #ClancyTrial #KevinReddington #VerdictWatch #CourtTok
