Accused child killer Lindsay Clancy back in US court

Lindsay Clancy's defense attorney, Kevin Reddington, expressed his hopes for a retrial in March, as Judge William Sullivan indicated a preference for that date. Prosecutors have not yet decided on the specific charges Clancy would face in the retrial, which could range from first-degree murder to second-degree murder or no charges at all.

Reddington questioned the delay in setting a trial date and the lack of clarity on the charges, emphasizing the need for a definite plan. The judge, however, indicated that he leans towards a March retrial in Plymouth Superior Court.
