    Inside the Lindsay Clancy Jury Standoff: Why Legal Experts See Trouble Ahead

    - The Lindsay Clancy triple-murder trial enters a critical stage as jurors report they cannot reach a unanimous decision after days of deliberations. - Former prosecutor Tommy Pope, who led the Susan Smith murder prosecution, explains why lengthy deliberations do not automatically reveal which side has the advantage. - The panel weighs how media coverage, social media and an unsequestered jury could complicate one of the country’s most closely watched murder trials. - Defense attorney Mark Geragos estimates the chances of a hung jury are rising and suggests the split could be closer to 9-3 or 10-2 than an evenly divided jury. - Geragos defends Kevin Reddington’s strategy, arguing the defense builds its case around the claim that Clancy repeatedly sought help before the killings and that the mental-health system failed her.
