Lindsay Clancy juror admits she and other women had ulterior motive while deliberating

A juror from the Lindsay Clancy trial is continuing to speak out, giving what was at least her third interview over the weekend to mainstream media outlets, a discussion with CBS News.
Paula Devlin, who in a previous interview with CBS News revealed the holdout juror was a black man, spoke with CBS Mornings over the weekend and discussed the dynamics inside the jury room in greater detail, and also made a stunning admission about the motive of the women on the jury, who outnumbered the men on the jury, 9-3.
“We knew that this was a turning point, and this would be something that could change something to make it better for other women in the future, for other families," Devlin said, admitting that the jurors were considering more than just the facts of the case. "You know, justice for those children is this never happening again."
This was hardly Devlin's first unusual remark about the case. In the first interview she gave after a mistrial was declared, Devlin described Clancy's defense lawyer, Kevin Reddington, as having been "entertaining" in court.
Meanwhile, the lone holdout juror has yet to give an interview, but local media are revealing some identifying details about the man, who is in his mid-30s. At the same time, supporters of the juror, who argue the media are trying to destroy him because he refused to go along with the other 11 jurors on the case, have started an online fundraising campaign to support him. As of Monday, the campaign had raised nearly $120,000 in just two days.
