Patrick Clancy spoke openly in an interview about the trauma he faced after his children were killed by their mother, Lindsay Clancy.
In January 2023, Clancy said he returned home from an errand to find Lindsay lying in the back yard with her throat and wrists cut — and she had been paralyzed after jumping from a window upstairs. He discovered his two children, 5-year-old Cora and 3-year-old Dawson, strangled in the basement while his 8-month-old son Callan was airlifted to Boston Children’s Hospital.
“I really thought there was a chance that Callan would live,” Clancy said. “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.
