Judge in Lindsay Clancy trial refuses to declare her not guilty after mistrial

Her attorney tried to persuade Judge William Sullivan that prosecutors had not offered any proof that Lindsay Clancy killed her three children

Fox News

What the coverage shows

Both outlets center on the judge’s refusal to declare Lindsay Clancy not guilty, and both frame the ruling through the defense’s failed bid after a mistrial. The Guardian US is the only one to explicitly mention that the request was to acquit Clancy and that the first trial ended with a deadlocked jury, while The Independent alone says the defense argued prosecutors had offered no proof that she killed her three children.
