I think you're better off basing this decision on everything else that happened... did the ball get AWAY - how far away. OTOH, if this ball was OBVIOUSLY not caught, then I think the batter-runner (and coaches) bear some responsibility in knowing she's not out. You couldn't possibly be saying the ball was caught. Just like when a BR runs on a dropped 3rd when she can't advance, the defense bears responsibility for knowing BR is already out.
I don't call much U-Trip. Is PU REQUIRED in U-Trip to call an out in this sitch (if she's out, that is)? I generally just say strike three, regardless of where runners are or how many outs.
