Patrick Clancy, Wife Rachel Danis Confirm They're Starting a Family...

On Jan. 24, 2023, Lindsay "was having one of her best days," Patrick testified, per CNN, recalling that his then-wife built a snowman in the yard. "She was playing with the kids," he said, "and she seemed in a good mood." That morning she had taken Cora to a doctor's appointment and he had texted her a picture of Dawson after he "dressed himself completely for the first time." Patrick told the court he had felt "hopeful" since his wife's release from the hospital. “Her mood seemed better,” he said. "She was more active, and she was able...to partake in more things.” Before he left to pick up dinner and medication for Cora, he said he kissed one of the kids on the head and told them he'd "be right back." Prosecutors allege Lindsay sent Patrick on errands to get him out of the house on purpose. Then, Plymouth County Assistant District Attorney Shanan Buckingham said in her opening statement, she strangled the children with exercise bands "deliberately and meticulously." Patrick testified July 29 that no one told him he shouldn't leave Linday alone with their kids, telling the court, "I didn't know what psychosis was until after this happened."
