What happened, for context

The jury in the trial of Lindsay Clancy, charged with murdering her three children in Massachusetts in 2023, reported deadlock for a second time on Wednesday after approximately five days of deliberations. Judge William Sullivan instructed jurors to continue deliberating and delivered a Tuey-Rodriguez charge (also called a 'dynamite charge'), a Massachusetts-specific instruction designed to encourage deadlocked juries to reconsider their positions without coercing a verdict.
