The lone holdout juror in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial said it was obvious from the first day of deliberations that there were “activists” on the jury who immediately wanted to exonerate the woman who admitted to killing her three children.
The holdout, 48-year-old Michael P. Desronvil, told Fugitive TV’s Ray Marcel that he concluded Clancy was guilty based on the evidence presented in court. He told Marcel he believed she was not insane at the time and knew what she was doing.
Marcel said Desronvil described the jury’s opening positions this way: from day one, eight jurors were going for not guilty, two were for guilty, and two had not made up their minds.
“He said that from day one, he said eight of them were going for Lindsay Clancy not guilty. That was on day one. Eight were going not guilty. Two were for guilty. And two didn’t know. They didn’t make up their mind,” Marcel said. “He said to him those eight felt like they were activists. … Every day they would vote. … The eight that felt that Lindsay was not guilty were trying to convince the other four, ‘Hey, Lindsay is not guilty.’ ”
Desronvil said the other juror who voted guilty “caved in at the last moment.”
LifeNews.com noted: “Desronvil, whom Marcel described as well-spoken, kind and Catholic, said he believes he is being targeted because he is a black Republican with conservative values” and served on a jury with many Democrat voters.
Unlike several of the jurors, Desronvil has not appeared on camera.
“His name spread online after the mistrial. He has been doxxed; he said his life has been threatened and people have stalked his house,” LifeNews noted.
He also addressed questions about his background.
“I did not lie on the questionnaire,” he told Fugitive TV, saying he disclosed a past arrest when selected.
A 2021 charge that he assaulted his then-wife was later dismissed. He said he has not been convicted in connection with those 2021 events and that some claims circulating about him were incomplete, partly true or false.
Clancy remains charged but prosecutors have not announced whether they will try the case again.
A hearing is scheduled for Sept. 29.
