Show Notes
Lindsay Clancy's defense is asking the court to dismiss the murder case and arguing that another trial would violate double-jeopardy protections following the mistrial. The defense is also seeking an investigation into the lone holdout juror and his conduct during deliberations. No ruling has been issued, and prosecutors have not yet publicly announced whether they will seek a retrial. Also today on Crime Talk: the latest from the Caleb Flynn murder trial, Tomasz Kosowski challenges an important part of the prosecution's theory involving Steven Cozzi, and a Florida woman claiming self-defense faces questions over forensic evidence involving a pillow. Court TV reports that prosecutors say testing was consistent with the pillow having been folded over the firearm when it was discharged. Plus Legal History, our Legal Quote of the Day, and a new Dumb Criminal involving an alleged campaign-sign theft case in Tennessee.

Nick Reiner is accused of murdering his parents, Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner. Now he is asking the court for access to trust money he says was already supposed to be distributed to him years ago. The legal fight is a fascinating one. Can someone accused of killing the people who created the trust still demand that money for his defense? Reiner's attorneys say the money was already his and that he is still presumed innocent. Trustees and opposing parties point to the law designed to prevent killers from profiting from their victims. Today, we break down the trust dispute, the defense argument, the prosecution angle, and why this financial fight could shape the entire murder case going forward. #CrimeTalk #NickReiner #TrueCrime #RobReiner

A father is on trial over the death of 7-year-old Ethan Hauschultz.
