Maybe it's Maybelline. Well, Sonny Hostin of the View is back at it again. This time she's bragging about being the holdout juror in a grisly murder case where a man killed a woman, dismembered her, and then fed her to homeless people. Weird flex, but okay. But the story takes a twist as we find out that Sonny Hoston is apparently lying about being the holdout juror that got this guy acquitted. Let's talk about it.
Yay, vera.
Guys, before we get into today's video, please consider liking and subscribing. Today we're reacting to Sonny Hostin and this whole holdout juror lie that she apparently got herself into. Now, this sparked out of a conversation about Lindsay Clancy, her trial, which was declared a mistrial, and largely due to one singular holdout juror saying that he in fact believed that she was guilty, while all the other jurors wanted to push forward a not guilty plea by reason of insanity. Now, Sonny Hosting is speaking about this and wants to brag about having been a holdout juror in a similar case. Let's watch.
The insanity defense has been around in Massachusetts for a hundred and eighty two years. So I think it's well established. And I thought Absolutely, that she was not criminally responsible uh by reason of of insanity. And the reason I felt that I I f I feel so strongly about this holdout juror is because I was a holdout juror in a case in the Daniel Rakowitz case. I don't know if people remember it, the Butcher of Tompkins Square Park. It was in nineteen.
What claim does Sunny Hostin make about being a holdout juror in a notorious murder case?
You were on that jury. You're gonna need to explain more.
Yes, I
was and
What is it? So like very strange the the demeanor. Yes. Yes I was. Yes I was. Like this sort of proudness about it. And I guess it's maybe because the case was uh a viral for its time, I guess, or very talked about, uh very published as this trial was going through its paces and you know, ends up the way it ends up. But a very weird thing to be sort of bragging about. I digress.
I mean we never heard a story before. It was before I went to law school. And I when I brought it up at the hot when I brought it up at the hot topics meeting, I don't think everyone believed me. And then my producer looked it up and I'm in the New York Times. And apparently several jurors questioned afterwards said one holdout juror was principally responsible for preventing them from returning a guilty verdict. That was me. And it was because I saw clearly that he was psychotic. Of course. He was in a psycho psychosis. He did not mean to kill her. And once he killed her, he panicked. He he chopped up her body parts. Yes, boiled her body parts, tried to commit the perfect crime, and then failed. And you got
And no, no, no, and but but he fed he f that's how much I believe in the insanity defense. And Excuse me, can I
Do you guys see like the layers of this? Like, first of all, we all know she's lying, right? Okay, and we're gonna get to that in just a moment. So it's a weird thing to just like ten toes down, double down on, and just add on to your ally a whole bunch. But then she states a bunch of things about this particular murder case that sort of point to the idea that he was aware of what he was doing, that a lot of this was premeditated and required planning, required following through and following through and following through. Through on more and more heinous actions and heinous elements of this crime. So a very, very weird thing to be saying, especially if you weren't actually the holdout juror.
How does the podcast connect Hostin’s claim to the Lindsay Clancy trial and the insanity defense?
And I think this is an attempt to not only try to defend the holdout juror in the Lindsay Clancy case, who is dealing with his own issues right now of being investigated and people poking and prodding into his life, which is absolutely horrible.
