Lindsay Clancy's ex-husband says he forgave her for killing children in first televised interview

Patrick Clancy said he forgave Lindsay Clancy and described suicidal thoughts, a panic attack, and four days with his youngest son before he died.

  • On Sunday, Patrick Clancy appeared on 60 Minutes for his first television interview since the mistrial, discussing his decision to forgive ex-wife Lindsay Clancy for killing their three children and confirming plans to start a family with wife Dr. Rachel Danis.
  • Lindsay faced murder charges for strangling Cora, Dawson, and Callan in their Duxbury, Massachusetts, home in January 2023. Her defense argued postpartum psychosis, leading to a mistrial on September 4, 2026, after jurors deadlocked 11-1.
  • During trial testimony, Clancy experienced a "massive, traumatic panic attack" and required ambulance transport. He later denounced online conspiracy theories as "deeply harmful" to his children's legacy, calling them "a huge distraction from what really matters here, which is perinatal mental health."
  • Both Patrick and Lindsay filed malpractice lawsuits alleging a "catastrophic failure" in medical diagnosis. Prosecutors have not announced a retrial decision, with a status hearing scheduled for September 29, 2026.
  • Experts emphasize perinatal mental health as a public issue, with Dr. Dan Singley stating "this is not just a women's issue." Danis said she aims to honor the children while allowing Patrick to grieve, underscoring the family's focus on legacy and awareness.
