Patrick Clancy’s first major television interview since the mistrial has revealed new details about the conversations he had with Lindsay after the deaths of their three children — offering one of the clearest glimpses yet into how he has processed the tragedy privately.

Patrick said he once asked Lindsay whether she remembered what happened to Cora, Dawson and Callan. According to him, Lindsay described the memory as being “like a dream” — something she could recall only in the fragmented way a person remembers a dream after waking. Patrick has consistently said he believes severe mental illness, rather than malice, drove what happened inside their Duxbury home in January 2023.

His comments come just weeks after Lindsay’s five-week murder trial ended in a mistrial on September 4, 2026. Jurors could not reach a unanimous decision on whether she was criminally responsible, with reporting indicating an 11–1 split favoring a finding that she was not responsible because of her mental condition. Prosecutors have not yet announced whether they will retry her.

Patrick also described one of the most painful moments of the entire case: the final days of his youngest son, Callan. After doctors determined the infant had catastrophic brain damage, Patrick said he was able to hold him and lie beside him before Callan died in his arms. He recalled hoping desperately that at least one of his three children might survive.

During the interview, Patrick also disclosed that he suffered a severe panic attack while testifying at Lindsay’s trial, shortly before jurors heard his 911 call from the night of the killings. He nevertheless returned to the courtroom and completed his testimony.

Perhaps the most emotional revelation was that Patrick says he still talks to his children “all the time.” When asked what he tells them, he answered: “Help me.” He said speaking to them is one way he continues to feel connected to them.

Patrick has also pushed back forcefully against conspiracy theories accusing him of involvement in the children’s deaths, calling those claims harmful to their memory and a distraction from what he believes should be the central issue: perinatal mental health and the warning signs that can accompany severe postpartum illness.
