在负责林赛·克兰西谋杀案的法官因陪审团未能达成一致裁决而于周五宣布重审无效后不久，特朗普总统在首次就这起引发全国关注的案件发表公开评论时，称其为“一场可怕的状况”和“一场可怕的悲剧”。
当被记者问及是否在关注这起马萨诸塞州的审判时，总统表示：“电视上到处都在播这件事，想不关注都难。”
克兰西承认自己于2023年初在达克斯伯里郊区小镇的家中杀害了自己的三个孩子，她的律师称她随后曾试图自杀。
检察官指控克兰西在2023年初于达克斯伯里郊区小镇的家中杀害三名子女的行为属于一级谋杀。克兰西承认杀子，但辩称自己无罪，理由是她当时服药过量，且正遭受产后精神病的折磨，不应承担刑事责任。审判期间，多名心理学家和精神病专家就克兰西的精神状态出庭作证。
特朗普并未就这起引发激烈争议的案件的最终判决结果明确表态。
“听着，她做了一件极其可怕的事。糟糕透顶，”他说，“但你们会看到她要付出什么代价。她会付出代价的，要么进精神病院，要么进监狱，或者别的什么。”
他指出该案有可能再次审理，并称之为“太糟糕了”。

陪审团商议了36小时。如果她因精神失常被判无罪，检察官可以请求法官将其送往州立医院或精神卫生机构。
陪审员曾多次告知法官，他们无法达成一致裁决。周五陪审团仍陷入僵局后，法官正式宣布重审无效。当地检察官尚未透露是否会对克兰西重新提起诉讼。
这起案件在最后时刻出现了不同寻常的争议。克兰西的律师请求法官解雇一名陪审员，称该陪审员无视法庭指令，并出示了陪审团团长写给法官的字条作为证据。
法官驳回了这一请求，但周五并未立即宣布重审无效，以便克兰西的律师团队可以向马萨诸塞州最高司法法院提起上诉。当州最高法院拒绝介入后，法官宣布重审无效，陪审员被解散。
Trump says he’s followed the Lindsay Clancy case in first comments on trial: “She did a horrible, horrible thing”

Shortly after the judge overseeing Lindsay Clancy’s murder case declared a mistrial Friday due to a hung jury, President Trump called it a “terrible situation” and a “horrible tragedy” in his first public comments on a case that has drawn nationwide attention.
Asked by reporters if he is following the Massachusetts trial, the president said: “It’s on television so much, it’s hard not to follow it.”
Clancy has admitted to killing her three children at home in the suburban town of Duxbury in early 2023, and her lawyers say she then tried to take her own life.
Prosecutors accused Clancy of first-degree murder in the deaths of her three children in their home in the suburban town of Duxbury in early 2023. Clancy has admitted to killing them, but pleaded not guilty, arguing she should not be held criminally responsible because she was overmedicated and suffering from postpartum psychosis. The trial included testimony from a litany of psychologists and psychiatrists who weighed in on Clancy’s state of mind.
Mr. Trump did not offer a strong view on what the outcome of the polarizing case should be.
“Look, she did a horrible, horrible thing. Can’t be worse,” he said. “But you’ll find out what the price to pay is. There’ll be a price. It’s going to be mental institution or jail or something.”
He noted that another trial is possible, which he called “too bad.”

The jury deliberated for 36 hours. If she had been found not guilty by reason of insanity, prosecutors could have asked a judge to commit her to a state hospital or mental health facility.
Jurors informed the judge several times that they were unable to reach a unanimous verdict. After they remained deadlocked on Friday, the judge formally declared a mistrial. Local prosecutors have not said whether they will retry her.
The case was marked by an unusual bout of last-minute controversy. Clancy’s attorney asked the judge to dismiss a lone juror who he alleged was ignoring the court’s instructions, pointing to a note to the judge from the jury foreperson.
The judge rejected that request, but he held off on declaring a mistrial Friday so Clancy’s legal team could appeal the matter to the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court. When the state’s highest court declined to intervene, a mistrial was declared and jurors were dismissed.
