Florida Governor Offers Asylum to Holdout Juror in Lindsay Clancy Mistrial

Florida Governor Offers Asylum to Holdout Juror in Lindsay Clancy Mistrial

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said the state would grant asylum to the unidentified juror whose dissent forced a mistrial in the Lindsay Clancy murder case, after media reports linked the juror to a prior domestic-violence charge. The mistrial followed a protracted series of deadlocked deliberations in which the jury repeatedly split 11-1, with a single holdout juror refusing to apply the reasonable-doubt standard despite repeated judicial instructions.

Judge William Sullivan declined to dismiss the juror, re-read the instructions, and ultimately announced a mistrial on September 2, 2026. Earlier, the jury had been sent back multiple times over five to seven days of deliberations, and the judge issued special instructions warning of a possible mistrial before the holdout’s refusal solidified the deadlock.
