Woman charged with juror intimidation in Lindsay Clancy trial
Dawn Light is accused of taking photos of jurors outside the Plymouth courthouse, a practice prohibited by the court.
A 56-year-old woman named Dawn Light has been charged with aggravated intimidation of a juror in the Lindsay Clancy trial. Light, a registered nurse with no prior criminal record, allegedly photographed jurors exiting the Plymouth courthouse on Tuesday. Her lawyer claims the incident was a misunderstanding. Clancy, 36, is charged with the murders of her three children, a case that has garnered national and international media attention.
Jurors have been deliberating since Thursday. Light was ordered to stay away from the courthouse and from those involved in the trial, and prosecutors requested a $50,000 bail, which was denied by the judge.
