Patrick Clancy to Give First TV Interview After Lindsay Clancy Mistrial

Patrick Clancy, the ex-husband of Lindsay Clancy, will give his first televised interview to "60 Minutes" on CBS News on Sunday, following a mistrial in her case for killing their three young children.

In the interview, Patrick Clancy is expected to discuss the grief of losing his children and to address social media conspiracy theories that have circulated around the case, including unfounded claims that he was connected to their deaths. His new wife, Dr. Rachel Danis, will appear alongside him.

Ahead of the broadcast, clips shared on social media show Patrick Clancy being asked whether he is angry with himself or feels he failed in some way.

"I think I did the best I could with what I had at the time," he says. "And I live with the outcome. I live with it every day."

In a separate clip, Danis describes him as the "most selfless and supportive partner."

"I don't understand how the story has been so twisted," she says. "I was just a girl that met a guy running in Central Park on a really cold Saturday. And I don't think there's anything wrong with that."

Earlier this month, 11 of 12 jurors were prepared to clear Lindsay Clancy of criminal responsibility, with the majority finding that the Massachusetts mother was in the grip of a rare condition called postpartum psychosis when she strangled her children in 2023. A lone juror sided with prosecutors, who argued that she knew what she was doing. The deadlock led a judge to declare a mistrial on Sept. 4.

During the trial, neither side disputed that Lindsay Clancy strangled her children, Cora, Dawson and Callan, in the family's home before attempting to end her own life. Her attorney said she was a loving mother experiencing deep delusions and other mental health problems, for which she had been receiving treatment.

The Plymouth County district attorney has not yet said whether he will seek to put Lindsay Clancy on trial again.
