From Plymouth, Mass.: A trial has taken a dramatic turn after jurors were unable to reach a unanimous decision. The case involves a woman accused of killing her three young children. Her defense team argues that the judge's handling of the jury has undermined the trial.

A lone juror had been refusing to follow instructions, causing a holdup in deliberations. The judge initially considered declaring a mistrial but instead allowed an emergency appeal from the defense. Further details about the case and the appeal are available.

The woman, a former nurse, is accused of a tragic crime that occurred in 2023.
