Patrick Clancy spoke openly about enduring trauma following the deaths of his children at the hands of their mother, Lindsay Clancy. The incident occurred in January 2023 when Callan, an 8-month-old, Cora, age 5, and Dawson, age 3, were strangled by Lindsay.
Patrick described returning home from an errand to find Lindsay deceased with her throat and wrists cut. She had jumped from an upstairs window, resulting in paralysis. The children were discovered strangled in the basement, with Callan being airlifted to Boston Children’s Hospital.
“I really thought there was a chance that Callan would live,” Patrick said in his interview. “I remember just thinking, ‘Just give me one. Just give me one kid, and I would raise him as best I could, and I would give him the best life I possibly could. I’d tell him about his brother and sister.’ And I was holding out hope for that.”
Callan’s heart continued to beat for four days before he received critical medical attention.
