Lindsay Clancy’s Holdout Answered WHAT Before Trial?!

The Lindsay Clancy case is now focused on two kinds of information people say they could not see in time. Patrick Clancy told 60 Minutes that mental illness can be ‘tragically deceptive.’ Days later, Lindsay’s lawyers asked the court to investigate what the lone holdout juror disclosed before he was selected and what he was doing during deliberations. 

Michael Desronvil was the only juror who favored criminal responsibility when the panel deadlocked 11-1 and Judge William Sullivan declared a mistrial on September 4. Records reported after the trial show Desronvil had previously faced a domestic assault charge that was dismissed, had an active restraining order involving his teenage nephew when he was seated, and was involved in eviction proceedings. The defense is not treating those facts as automatic proof of misconduct. It is asking whether his confidential questionnaire and voir dire answers accurately disclosed the background the court normally asks prospective jurors to reveal. 

Reddington’s filing also asks for a limited inquiry into alleged cellphone use during deliberations. Other jurors have accused the holdout of spending time on his phone, while Desronvil has publicly defended his verdict position and said he had no doubts about Clancy’s criminal responsibility. Judge Sullivan has not publicly granted the requested inquiry as of September 23. The issue is set to return to court September 29 alongside the defense effort to stop a retrial. 

Patrick’s interview adds the human side of the same case. He said Lindsay’s decline included sleeplessness, depression, intrusive thoughts, repeated medical care, and a stay at McLean Psychiatric Hospital. He told 60 Minutes he believes there were warning signs he simply did not understand at the time. Robin Dreeke and Tony Brueski connect Patrick’s account with the new courtroom fight: what was knowable, what was disclosed, and what the legal system does when critical information surfaces only after a mistrial.
