“"Jours are still deliberating in the murder trial of Lindsay Clancy.”
It's the sixth day without a verdict."
The panel has twice told the judge, Ed's deadlocked over whether Clancy was criminally responsible for killing her three children in 2023.

Prosecutors say Clancy rationally planned to kill her children. They reminded the jury of many of the horrific details of the children's violent deaths and they worked to convince them that she was sane."
