Patrick Clancy gives first TV interview after Lindsay Clancy mistrial
–
Neutral summary
On Sunday, Sept. 20, CBS aired Patrick Clancy's first televised interview since his ex-wife Lindsay Clancy's murder trial ended in a mistrial earlier this month after the jury deadlocked. Lindsay Clancy was accused of strangling their three children — 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson, and 8-month-old Callan — in January 2023 at their home in Massachusetts. In the interview with CBS News correspondent Ross Douthat, Clancy recounted that Callan died in his arms after four agonizing days and that he apologized to his son in their final moments. He also said he forgave his ex-wife because otherwise he would be “eaten up inside forever,” and that she told him she remembered the killings “like a dream.” The interview was conducted alongside his new wife, Dr. Rachel Danis, and the couple announced they are starting a family. Variety praised the interview as “surprisingly thoughtful,” while Rolling Stone reported that Clancy addressed how the tragedy was “twisted” on social media. According to the New York Post, Clancy also said he prayed for one of his children to live.
