  "account": "Lindsay Clancy's holdout juror, Michael Desronvil, has broken his silence regarding the murder trial. Desronvil, a juror in the Massachusetts case, believes the prosecution presented enough evidence to prove that Clancy, the mother of three young children, had the intent and knowledge to commit their murders. Clancy's defense argued that she suffered from postpartum psychosis, which would excuse her from criminal responsibility. The jury deliberated for seven days but was unable to reach a unanimous verdict, leading to a mistrial. Desronvil explained in a statement to CBS that he was confident in the evidence and did not feel any doubts during the deliberations. Other jurors have since claimed that Desronvil had reasonable doubt but did not join them in acquitting Clancy of the insanity defense. Newsweek has reached out to Desronvil's representative for further information, and this story is developing.",
  "summary": "Michael Desronvil said he \"didn't have any doubts\" over whether Clancy knew what she was doing when she killed her three children.",
