The lone holdout juror at Lindsay Clancy’s triple murder trial said there were “tense” moments during deliberations — but he insisted he had no reasonable doubt of her guilt.

Michael Desronvil denied other jurors’ claims that he had reasonable doubt but still refused to find the 36-year-old mom not criminally responsible for strangling her three kids.

Desronvil answered, “No” when he was asked by Fox News’ Kayleigh McEnany if he had reasonable doubt.

“…I had a lot of evidence to back up my claim but because out of respect of the other jurors and the court system I will put that to sleep for now until you know they go through the process of the court system,” he said.

A new trial date has yet to be set and prosecutors still haven’t said whether they intend to bring the same charges of first-degree murder against Clancy for a second time.

Clancy’s lawyer, Kevin Reddington, asked the jury to find her not guilty by reason of insanity on the grounds she was suffering from severe postpartum psychosis and hallucinated a man’s voice telling her to kill the kids and herself.

Prosecutors, on the other hand, claimed Clancy carefully plotted and carried out the slayings of Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months, on Jan. 24, 2023.

The panel of nine women and three men deliberated for seven days before a judge finally declared a mistrial after the jury sent out three notes that they were hopelessly deadlocked.

“There were moments that were tense as we were deliberating,” Desronvil said.
