Michael Desronvil, whose refusal to acquit Lindsay Clancy triggered a mistrial in September, says her defence team has since filed a motion to investigate him — a move his lawyer called a "Looney Tunes motion".

Michael Desronvil, the lone juror who forced a mistrial in the Lindsay Clancy case last month, has given his first televised interview, saying he had "a lot of evidence" backing his refusal to find the former labour and delivery nurse not criminally responsible. He called her strangling of Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and eight-month-old Callan a deliberate "execution", saying the thought process behind the killings convinced him she knew exactly what she was doing. Eleven other jurors wanted to clear Clancy on grounds of postpartum psychosis, but Desronvil stood firm — and prosecutors have yet to decide whether to retry her.

Desronvil now calls the three strangled children 'the Three Angels', saying Cora reminded him of his own five-year-old daughter.

Patrick Clancy, the husband who discovered the children's bodies and heard his wife make the 911 call, has publicly said he forgives her.

Clancy's defence team has filed a motion to investigate Desronvil — a move his lawyer branded a 'Looney Tunes motion'.
