Patrick Clancy’s marriage to Danis became a subject of fascination on social media as Lindsay Clancy stood trial for the 2023 killings of her children, 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson and 8-month-old Callan.
Ross Douthat sat down with Patrick Clancy and Danis just weeks after Lindsay Clancy’s case ended in a mistrial. Prosecutors in the case have yet to announce if they will seek a retrial.
Patrick Clancy talked about grief, mental health, and conspiracy theories that flooded social media since the trial.
And he reflected on his memories of his children, telling Douthat he still talks to his kids “all the time.”
“What do you say?” Douthat asked.
“Help me. All the time,” Clancy said.
“Do they help you?” Douthat asked.
“I like to believe they do. It’s a way I stay connected to them,” Clancy replied.
