Lindsay Clancy Holdout Juror Lawyers Up With Same Attorney Representing Nolan Wells’ Friends

The lone holdout juror whose vote resulted in a mistrial in the Lindsay Clancy case has hired an attorney with ties to another high-profile case.

Attorney Edward Andrew Paltzik is now representing the juror following intense public scrutiny over the Clancy trial.

“I can now confirm that I am representing the courageous and heroic lone holdout juror from the Lindsay Clancy Trial,” Paltzik wrote on X on Thursday, September 17. “He is an American Hero and Champion of Justice. Please pray for him and help us protect him.”

Paltzik said the juror was “presently safe and sound at an undisclosed secure location in a rural area of Northern New England.” The attorney also vowed to take action against people he accused of attacking his client.

As Globe previously reported, Paltzik also represents Warren Hudson, Jax Pitalo and Morgan Seymour, the three friends who were with Nolan Wells on a July 4 trip to Mississippi’s Horn Island. Wells, 18, was found dead two days later.

Paltzik and attorney J. Tyler Cox previously said in a statement to TMZ, they were “proud to stand with and fight for three completely innocent young men,” adding that Hudson, Pitalo and Seymour had “nothing whatsoever to do with the tragic death of Nolan Wells.”

Paltzik’s announcement via X that he was representing the juror drew mixed reactions in the comments section.

“Let’s hear some details. I believe this lone juror was either completely incompetent or a liar. Prove me wrong,” one person wrote.

Another offered support, writing, “God bless this man. Amen,” while someone else commented, “Thank you – this is very important. In fact, our very jury system is on the line here. I hope that every single person that broke the law is brought to justice.”

Clancy’s trial ended in a mistrial after the jury failed to reach a unanimous verdict. Eleven jurors supported finding her not criminally responsible for the deaths of her three children, while the lone holdout did not join them. Other members of the jury later publicly criticized the holdout’s conduct during deliberations.
