Patrick Clancy described how his son Callan died in his arms in the days after his ex-wife, Lindsay Clancy, strangled them to death in a heart-wrenching “60 Minutes” interview.

The grieving father recalled learning his 8-month-old son, Callan, had a heartbeat after he found his two other children, 5-year-old Cora and 3-year-old Dawson, strangled with exercise bands in their Duxbury, Massachusetts home in January 2023 during the highly anticipated sit-down with CBS correspondent Ross Douthat on Sunday night.

“I really thought there was a chance that Callan would live. And I … I remember just thinking, ‘Just gimme one. Just gimme 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,’” Clancy told Douthat.
