A 56-year-old woman was allegedly caught photographing jurors in the Lindsay Clancy triple-murder trial Tuesday afternoon, according to reports.

Dawn Light of Sutton, Massachusetts, was placed in handcuffs outside the Plymouth Superior Court around 3:40 p.m., according to the Massachusetts State Police.

Although state police did not confirm whether the arrest was specifically related to the sensational trial, sources told CBS Boston reporter Kristin Rex that “Someone (who is not a media member) was arrested outside” the courthouse and is “accused of filming jurors in Lindsay Clancy’s trial,” she wrote on X.

“Jurors allegedly saw the filming happening,” she added. 

Light is slated to be arraigned Wednesday on one charge of intimidation of a witness, jurors, or person furnishing information in connection with criminal proceedings, state police said, but added no further information was available. 

Her arrest came after the jury — composed of nine women and three men — requested to be dismissed by 3:30 p.m. Tuesday — once the clock ticked over to hour 23 of deliberations, according to Court TV.

At the 18-hour mark of deliberations Tuesday morning, the jury advised the judge that they were deadlocked — but the 12-person panel was instructed to continue working toward a verdict in a case that has gripped the nation.

While the jury is slated to return at 9 a.m. Wednesday for day five of deliberations, experts believe a mistrial is likely if the panel is unable to reach a unanimous verdict.

The consensus among experts is “There was always going to be a very high probability that there would be a deadlock jury in this case,” veteran Boston criminal defense attorney Peter Elikann told The Post. 

Meanwhile, Clancy’s defense attorney, Kevin Reddington, told reporters Tuesday he would “absolutely” stick with the killer’s mom’s case if it ended with a hung jury and was retried.

Reddington said he would “try it again,” adding that Plymouth District Attorney Timothy Cruz “would never drop it. That’s for sure.”

Throughout the almost 24 hours of jury deliberations, Clancy has been “sad,” according to Reddington, who added that he doesn’t believe Clancy would be able to emotionally handle another trial.

The trial, which kicked off on July 20, has garnered international acclaim — and many Clancy supporters have been camped out in front of the Massachusetts courthouse in solidarity.

A supporter told The Post that Clancy’s triple-murder trial is “bigger” than OJ Simpson’s shocking 1995 double-murder case.

“It’s gone more international,” said Mary Stacey, 68, a retired accountant from Worcester, as she waited for the verdict outside the courtroom.

“It’s the subject matter — postpartum psychosis and it’s more about mental illness,” she said. 

Clancy is on trial for strangling her three children — Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and 8-month-old Callan — with exercise bands inside their Duxbury home on Jan. 24, 2023.

The 36-year-old former nurse wants the jury to find her not guilty by reason of insanity on the grounds she was experiencing severe postpartum psychosis when she murdered her kids and tried to kill herself — intensified by a slew of powerful psychiatric medications doctors had prescribed her.
