A fourth female juror went public with a claim that a male holdout faced pressure to vote for acquittal of Lindsay Clancy starting from the very first day of deliberations. She admitted shifting her own vote from guilty to not guilty under that majority pressure, even though she initially believed the defendant was guilty, criminally responsible, and mentally unwell. The juror described how the majority tried to sway the holdout from the beginning and noted the defendant felt she couldn't see any way out because she thought murder was the only option. Murder is never the only option, yet an acquittal happened with just one juror difference while tens of millions watched, which is shocking and terrifying. The person who refused to yield deserves recognition. Interview: CBS Boston
