Patrick Clancy to Give First TV Interview on Sept. 20 as Ex-Wife's Trial Ends in Mistrial

Summary
Sept. 20 will mark Patrick Clancy's first television interview, when he appears on CBS' "60 Minutes" at 7 p.m. ET weeks after a mistrial in his ex-wife Lindsay Clancy's triple-murder case.
Ross Douthat is set to interview him about his grief, memories of children Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months, and the baseless conspiracy theories that spread online during and after the trial.
Sept. 4 brought the mistrial after 7 days of jury deliberations failed to produce a unanimous verdict in the Massachusetts case over the January 2023 killings at the family's Duxbury home.
Lindsay Clancy's case turned on sharply different accounts: prosecutors said she deliberately killed the children, while the defense argued she was not criminally responsible because of postpartum psychosis.
Sept. 8, Patrick Clancy's attorney said law enforcement had been notified about an alleged defamation campaign, warning that legal action could follow against influencers and conspiracy theorists accusing him without evidence.
