Patrick Clancy is joined by new wife as he tells ‘60 Minutes’ he talks ‘all the time’ to 3 kids his ex-Lindsay killed

Patrick Clancy has broken his silence following the collapse of the murder trial of his ex-wife, Lindsay Clancy, and revealed he speaks to his dead children "all the time,” in an emotional interview with 60 Minutes this coming Sunday where he will be joined by new wife.

Lindsay Clancy killed the couple’s three children — Cora, 5; Dawson, 3; Callan, eight months — at their home in Duxbury, Massachusetts, in January 2023, before a suicide attempt which left her partially paralyzed.

Her defense team said she was suffering from postpartum psychosis at the time of the murders and could not be held criminally responsible. The prosecution argued that Clancy was lucid and in her right mind when she made the decision to kill her children. The case ended in a mistrial September 4 after the jury could not reach a verdict.

In the new interview, airing in full Sunday, Clancy said he still speaks to his children “all the time.” Asked what he says to them, Clancy replied: “Help me.” He also discusses his grief and the unsubstantiated conspiracy theories that have swirled around the case, which garnered nationwide attention.

Clancy will be joined for a portion of the interview by his new wife, Dr. Rachel Danis, according to a clip posted Thursday by 60 Minutes.

Clancy, a sales executive, returned home from running errands on Jan. 24, 2023, to find his three children dead in the basement and his wife seriously injured outside after she jumped from a second-story window.

In a 911 call that day, Clancy yelled to the dispatcher: “She killed the kids!”

Later in January, Clancy released a statement urging people to forgive his wife, who was then in police custody.

“I want to ask all of you that you find it deep within yourselves to forgive Lindsay, as I have,” he wrote on a GoFundMe page. “The real Lindsay was generously loving and caring towards everyone - me, our kids, family, friends, and her patients. The very fibers of her soul are loving. All I wish for her now is that she can somehow find peace.”

Clancy, who later divorced his wife, took the stand during her closely followed July trial.

He painted her as a victim of her condition rather than as a cold-blooded killer, stating that her mental health had worsened after the birth of their third child.

“She described thoughts of hurting the kids or them having some sort of ailment,” he said from the stand, adding that he was not concerned for the children’s safety because she showed no “any intention” of harming them.

A week after the children were fatally strangled, Clancy testified, his wife called him and “said she heard a man’s voice telling her that if she didn’t do it now, she would lose her chance – or something like that.”

The trial ended in a mistrial on September 4 after jurors said they could not reach a unanimous verdict following one week of deliberations.

The prosecutor in the case has been weighing whether to seek a retrial. Lindsay Clancy’s defense attorney has called on President Donald Trump to pardon his client and has insisted that a retrial would violate her Fifth Amendment rights not to be tried twice for the same crime.

Clancy began rebuilding his life soon after the death of his children.

He moved to New York City in 2023, divorced his wife and later married Rachel Danis, a physician, according to Newsweek. He established the Heard Foundation, which is focused on bettering care for parents facing perinatal mental health issues.

As his ex-wife’s case has captivated the nation, Clancy has also become the subject of unsubstantiated conspiracy theories circulating on social media.

Earlier this month, his attorney warned of “consequences” for those spreading them.

“Enough is enough — this spread of blatant and baseless falsehoods must stop,” Clancy’s lawyer, Howard Cooper, said in a Sept. 8 statement.
