Lindsay Clancy attorney will ask for jury to be sequestered in new trial

Lindsay Clancy's trial ended in a mistrial after the jury split 11-1, with one holdout juror preventing a verdict. Her lawyer, Kevin Reddington, publicly asked President Trump to consider a pardon for Clancy, though it was noted that a president can only pardon federal crimes. Jurors who spoke afterward described the deliberations and their disagreement with the lone holdout, and Reddington said he plans to request that the jury be sequestered in any new trial.
