Speaker 1: Hey there, folks. It is Monday, August 31st, day three of Verdict Watch. And as of this recording, we have not heard a peep from the jury in the Lindsay Clancy triple murder trial as they continue their deliberations. However, some in the courtroom have put out some clues they think point to what this jury might be thinking. And with that, welcome to this episode. Of Amy and TJ. Robes, at this point, looks like they're going to be going to lunch, so that would be a total, what, be up to 14 hours? 14, 15 that they've deliberated.
00:00:36
Speaker 2: Yeah, that would be right at that mark, which is fairly significant and on the lengthy side.
00:00:41
Speaker 1: Robes, the number's getting up there, is it not? And as of this moment, we just wanted to hop on because the jury has not sent out a question today. We have not heard from them. However, Robes, there is a conversation exploding online right now because someone... tweeted that two jurors were wearing pink today. So you haven't seen that before you sat down. Before we get into it, if that were true, what does that mean?
00:01:11
Speaker 3: Look, there's no rule against wearing pink.
00:01:14
Speaker 2: True.
00:01:14
Speaker 3: People wear pink because they like the color.
00:01:16
Speaker 1: True.
00:01:16
Speaker 3: They think it looks good on their skin.
00:01:18
Speaker 2: True.
00:01:19
Speaker 3: Could be breast cancer survivors.
00:01:20
Speaker 2: True. But we do know, obviously, that there was a massive show of support for Lindsay Clancy in the last few weeks, specifically the last two weeks of the trial, where hundreds of women did show up dressed in pink to show their solidarity for Lindsay Clancy and specifically for women's mental health issues.
00:01:44
Speaker 1: So that was outdoor. That was outside.
00:01:46
Speaker 2: The jury was aware of that. But I don't look just I think that women like to wear pink. Pink is a popular color. I like to wear pink. It doesn't mean that I'm making a statement by the color that I choose to put on in the morning.
00:02:03
Speaker 1: OK, so this is what's happening, Robes, is that one tweet by someone who suggests they saw people wearing pink, two people wearing pink. has now blown up into an all-out new war online to where people are calling for an immediate mistrial.
00:02:20
Speaker 3: That seems to me, frankly, a huge stretch.
00:02:24
Speaker 1: But it's just, bro, this is where we are. We're getting so little that here we go. We just found some random person who decides to put out that they're wearing pink. Robes, I was going through and reading, and I mean, people are putting this out. In their own individual tweets, they're wearing pink. Automatic mistrial. They're wearing pink. I can't believe they walk in there like this. They are wearing pink. Last week, there was only one person. Now it's up to two. This is clearly a show of solidarity and a statement. Robes, then you talk to another reporter from a local TV station, and they say, I didn't see anybody wearing pink in the jury box.
00:02:57
Speaker 3: Are you serious?
00:02:57
Speaker 1: I am not kidding. So, Robes, this goes to, once again, folks, be careful with what you're seeing and what the conversations are right now. Because robes, this is the thing that's erupting right now. A call automatically for a mistrial because two people might be wearing pink. Is this where we are? Is this how wildly out of control this thing is going?
00:03:19
Speaker 2: And look, we have seen plenty of stories where the internet and online communities have actually helped in certain cases. Online sleuthing, but I do think you get to a point where people take their role as an internet sleuth or an outside observer way too seriously and get to a place where they actually believe they know more than the people who are actually in the trial, working the trial, and then somehow it reaches a fever pitch and you've now shifted the conversation away from what is actually happening to a perceived reality you're promoting. And that can be very dangerous when it comes to Something as serious as this, where this issue.
00:04:07
Speaker 3: Of postpartum depression, postpartum.
00:04:10
Speaker 2: Psychosis, and the role it may or may not play in criminal responsibility is obviously a massive, massive issue that we don't want to get confused with folks taking something small and making it something into what it wasn't.
00:04:27
Speaker 1: What I'm saying, Rob, is right now a narrative is being built to discredit whatever they come back with. Right now, a narrative is being built that just because two people who might be wearing salmon, for all we know, we have no idea. But Robes is pushed out there, as this is automatic, this is clear evidence of jury misconduct. And so now people have seen that, and they're just retweeting it, or they're putting out their own statement without actually verifying. We don't know if that's true or not, Robes. We actually don't. And to see the conversation happening online now, completely have discredited whatever they come back with. It's been discredited. Because two people are wearing pink.
00:05:10
Speaker 3: That's a shame.
00:05:11
Speaker 2: That's a shame that then people won't accept the verdict. It reminds me of what we've seen happening politically with our ability to have free and fair elections.
00:05:21
Speaker 3: It's the same concept.
00:05:22
Speaker 2: Let me show you a reason why this is a process that can't be trusted. And once you start sowing these seeds of distrust among American people, whether it's how we vote, how we elect officials, or how we actually seek justice in this country. If you start to feel like all of our systems are broken, all of the branches of government can't be trusted, that is when we have much bigger issues in this country.
00:05:53
Speaker 3: And I'm starting to feel like it's happening everywhere.
00:05:57
Speaker 2: And this is just another example of, conspiracy theorists or the vocal minority or folks who want to create chaos planting.
00:06:06
Speaker 3: These seeds online. And unfortunately, they sprout and they become infectious.
00:06:12
Speaker 1: So to be clear, folks, we have not heard a peep from this jury today. They have not sent out a note that we know of. They came in this morning, nine o'clock. They sat down in the jury and box for only a few moments. The judge asks those same standard questions. Have any of you have been seeing any coverage of this or anything that could impact your ability to be impartial? They all say no. He sent them back. Court is in recess, and that is it. And that is all the action we have gotten today. But then, Robes, of course, this has turned into a thing. Okay, what if they're wearing pink? Is that inappropriate?
00:06:47
Speaker 2: No. No.
00:06:48
Speaker 1: Okay, but would two of them show up and be so crazy as to think they're going to walk in there as a show of support before deliberations? It doesn't seem like I'd be crazy enough.
00:06:57
Speaker 2: That seems highly unlikely to me that these, remember, these 16 people actually, but 12 who are going to be deciding, they have given up five weeks of their personal and professional lives. And by all accounts, everyone who's been in that courtroom, from the journalists to the attorneys, they've all spoken about this jury as being very curious and intently listening. You know, we've heard stories in cases of jurors falling asleep or not paying attention. This jury has been consistently described as attentive and actually emotionally invested. I can't imagine that two jurors would be willing to upend the process or even create any sort of idea that they wouldn't or that they were doing something to make a statement or to control the outcome.
00:07:51
Speaker 3: They know better. And I just, I want to give those folks the benefit of the doubt.
00:07:57
Speaker 2: They should be given, would not risk all this work that's been put into this trial from everyone involved in that courtroom to even, yes, their role right now as jurors. It's, it's hard for me to believe that they're trying to make some statement or Or put some pressure even on other jurors by the color that they chose in the morning.
00:08:18
Speaker 3: What if they had worn white?
00:08:20
Speaker 2: Are there jurors in there who are wearing all white? Because that is what the other side was wearing in justice of the kids or for the kids. And presumably they want Lindsay Clancy to go to prison for killing those kids.
00:08:34
Speaker 3: They have shown up. outside that courthouse for the last couple of weeks in all white.
00:08:38
Speaker 2: So if a juror is wearing an all white outfit or a white shirt, should we assume they're doing that?
00:08:44
Speaker 3: No, of course not.
00:08:47
Speaker 1: Jurors wore pink in court today. Cora, Dawson, and Callen, justice probably not going to be served for you. I'd remove them from deliberations. This jury will get us a mistrial. speculation. They are now signaling support for Clancy. Here's another, not looking good because of the pink. And people have jumped to those conclusions. But stay here, folks. It's not just what they were wearing. We'll explain the other theory that people have pointed to and how the jury showed up today that they say is a clear signal. They are on Lindsay Clancy's side. All right, continuing here on Amy and TJ, as we are continuing on Verdict Watch, about four hours today. So this takes it up to nearly 15 hours, 14 and a half, 15 hours that this jury has deliberated. Robes, one guy came in with a haircut, and some of them seem to be a little more dressed up. Again, according to people online, they've taken that and run with it. We have seen this in the past. People notice when the jury is a little more dressed up. They think, oh, this is the day. So people are jumping on that. We've seen that before.
00:10:03
Speaker 2: Maybe someone was long overdue for a haircut and had a scheduled appointment this weekend. And yeah, I do think this is, unfortunately, we see this happen in so many stories when there is not if there isn't content coming directly from the source, from the court, then people make it up to keep the story going, to keep interest at a higher level, to draw attention to themselves. And yes, I am, I jumped on X just to kind of see just how much and how many people are jumping in on this two jurors wearing pink.
00:10:45
Speaker 3: Conspiracy theory. It's actually jaw-dropping.
00:10:48
Speaker 2: I am blown away at how many people are using this already to discredit whatever verdict comes out or to feel like, ha-ha, I knew it, if a mistrial is suddenly announced or if the jury is hung because we're seeing the sides now.
00:11:04
Speaker 3: Show their true colors, a.k.a. two jurors are dressed in pink.
00:11:09
Speaker 1: Robes, one of the main people who put this out is literally sitting in his living room as he's reporting. Right. So it's and that's fine. But it's not even people who have eyes on the jurors. And again, they come in and they go out. Even the folks in the courtroom don't have the clearest view of everything that everybody's wearing. This is just a mess. And the haircut thing. A lot of people get haircut on a weekend.
00:11:32
Speaker 3: Yeah, because they don't have time to during the week.
00:11:36
Speaker 2: And especially if you're a juror in the Lindsay Clancy trial. You might have missed a hair appointment for five straight weeks now.
00:11:43
Speaker 1: So what is this supposed to mean? Yes, is it possible they're preparing or thought this would be the last day? Sure, of course. And I bet they're hoping it'll be the last day. But this is where we are, Robes, in that there's so little coming out. Everybody is a guessing game for everybody. What's the jury going to do? Ooh, they've been in this long, so this must mean blank. Ooh, they asked this question, so this must mean blank. Fact is, nobody knows.
00:12:05
Speaker 2: Right. And the only people who would actually be able to report on whether or not a juror or two was wearing pink or this fresh haircut another juror seems to have. would be from a reporter in the courtroom, correct? Because we obviously are not allowed to see any sort of video of the juror. Their images, their identities are supposed to be protected for obvious reasons.
00:12:29
Speaker 3: I worry about these folks.
00:12:31
Speaker 2: I know this is always a concern coming out of any court case, but just how divided folks seem to be on this particular subject to think These jurors, are they aware of just how much scrutiny they may be under after they make their decision, once.
00:12:49
Speaker 3: The verdict is read? Are they prepared?
00:12:52
Speaker 2: Is anyone preparing them for what may come afterwards? Because their public interest is at a fever pitch.
00:12:59
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't think anybody can really be prepared. They have some history based on what they've seen other juries go through in very high-profile cases, but there is a lot. They're not supposed to know what's happening. I bet they do. or if this is just too intense of a debate, they are going to be, unfortunately, people are going to try to target members of this jury when this is over, one way or another, no matter how this outcome, how this turns out. But folks, it looks like at least they'll make it to lunch at this moment, because as of this recording, it is lunchtime, and no word from the jury this morning. We just wanted to hop on, let you know it's still verdict watch, and to be careful with what you're seeing out there online. And what people are talking about, because to be honest, Robes, at this point, nobody really knows what's going on in that room.
00:13:46
Speaker 3: Nobody knows except the jury themselves. And that is how it's supposed to be.
00:13:51
Speaker 2: That is why these proceedings, these deliberations are held in secret so that they can come to the best decision possible. And we'll continue to watch the courtroom for any real word, any real news or information available. that comes out from court today, but we always appreciate you listening to us, everyone.
00:14:09
Speaker 3: I'm Amy Robach alongside TJ Holmes. We will talk very soon.
Speaker 1: Hey there, folks. It is Monday, August 31st, day three of Verdict Watch. And as of this recording, we have not heard a peep from the jury in the Lindsay Clancy triple murder trial as they continue their deliberations. However, some in the courtroom have put out some clues they think point to what this jury might be thinking. And with that, welcome to this episode. Of Amy and TJ.

00:13:51
Speaker 2: That is why these proceedings, these deliberations are held in secret so that they can come to the best decision possible. And we'll continue to watch the courtroom for any real word, any real news or information available. that comes out from court today, but we always appreciate you listening to us, everyone.
