The Insane Lies of Chandler Halderson 

Good! He’s a coward and will live out his pathetic life as such.

Watched that today actually. Talk about an easy job for the prosecutor, barely knew his defense attorney was there. I was very impressed with the judge.

Ooof that last part stings. One point to the judge.

Thanks for the info. The quote just really drives home the highest betrayal anyone could endure. On top of the horridness , the short-sighted motive, and futile outcome for chandler and devastation for the rest involved by making this crime reality - worst of it beyond dying by the hands of your son for a reason that the crime would not solve - they lay scattered upon trash and land for eternity - never to lay whole or together again. It truly is just exhaustingly shortsighted, selfish, and cruel. Their own child. I guess it's Just frustrating to know this ever happened to anyone ever.

Awesome quote by the judge lol

This got me too😂

Typical police

I just typed this comment out too I gotta go delete it now I finally found this xD

That's the American Midwest, perfectly encapsulated.

came here for this comment 🤣

Caught that too! LOL

Rekt

😅

This is what happens when your small talk is on autopilot 😅

Even I felt worse about myself after his response.

that is true.. it's to bad

No he couldn't control his lies he knew he didn't have the smarts to make a good living his brother was more the super smart one . He could never measure up to his parents expectations and resented it his parents weren't the type to say ok if he told them he wants to take a year off his dad would have flipped his lid but he never planned for the time when the gig was up and anger build up from knowing he couldn't measure up and was just given the first gun he ever had access to .

If he was a better student than he is a liar. And a human for that matter. But I do guestion if there was a sibling rivalry emotions that may have helped contribute to this young mans mental stability?. When the dad said " the man on the phone sounded a lot like Chandler" how well did he know his own son.?

@@therealz360z7just because he wasnt gonna be as successful as his dad or brother doesn’t mean they didn’t love him and he couldn’t do something productive. His mom worked at a car dealership it’s not like she was a rocket surgeon.

this is the point that always sticks with me. this video didn't really go much into the actual effort he put into his lies... if you watch other videos on this case, you'll find out he put a TITANIC amount of work into pretending to be in college and employed... so much so that it's a wonder he didn't do as Kimmycagle4096 suggested and just... get a real job

That almost sounds like a Churchill quote. 😂👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

At least wallpaper paste is good for something.

Good onya brother as the late great lemmy killmister growled "STAY CLEAN "🤗

Thank you for sharing

As an addict I couldn't even fathom killing anyone in my family.

I am also a recovering drug addict, been clean for over 7 years now, but this case hit especially close to home because I was in a situation very similar to Chandler’s. I had loving parents who worked incredibly hard for myself and my two brothers, however I started hanging out with the wrong crowd and made a lot of bad decisions. Because of that, I had to drop out of college after a year and a half due to finances and grades not being up to par, but lied to my parents and made them believe I was still enrolled. I’ll never forget those hours sitting alone in my car, having no idea what I was gonna do, and weeks went by where I just racked my brain trying to figure out what I was going to do. The thought of killing my parents never once crossed my mind, unfortunately I did think about doing that to myself, that’s how distraught I was. Eventually, with the help of my aunt and uncle, I came clean to my parents and told them everything that had been going on. It was such a relief that I no longer had to live that lie. They honestly were only angry with me because I had lied to them, if I told the truth, they would’ve helped me find a solution much sooner. I voluntarily went to a rehab facility for 28 days and was able to get things back on track, and now our relationship is better than ever. I learned it’s always better to stand on the ground and tell the truth, rather than climb a tree to tell a lie. So I don’t know what Chandler thought was gonna happen if he had just told his parents the truth. I’d imagine they would’ve done anything they could to help him, from what I’ve heard, they seemed like loving parents. That’s why this case was so gut wrenching. It was completely senseless, Chandler’s situation could’ve been fixed through some hard work and patience, but he chose a much more evil and cowardly solution, one which cannot be fixed. He deserves to spend the rest of his life in prison.

@@johnselwitz5362 💙

Would it help if Mike and Mitch did a sarcastic "life insurance dance"?

I feel for him too ..but how did he know so much detail about the life insurance? If he was the executor of estate I get it, but that part disturbed me.

@@stubbs-letterpress I'm sure his parents told both kids about their last will/testament/insurance/etc. My mom let me know where to find documents, what goes to my sister & myself, life insurance, blah blah blah. It's pretty common.

And his remaining family member is the one who took his parents lives. Just cant imagine how he feels

Absolutely

His life is messed up forever, how do you trust when it’s your own family who killed your parents?!

@@shepherdboy9692 money isn't everything

@@nycgirltee facts

@@shepherdboy9692 That is a disturbing thought. Money won't heal the lifelong wounds, just take away 5% of the resulting worries. At best.

But that's just evidence of no evidence. It says as much as it doesn't say, acording to the defense attorney who seems to be giving him grounds for an appeal based on complete and total incompetence. Or maybe the defense was having a stroke as she stood for her turn. She is watching this and thinking "what the hell was I saying, oh well he is a pos so no worries".

Since his Dad knew he had been lied to for years after talking to Omar Jobe and his reaction to that was to calmly text Chas saying so, should have shown him that it wasn't the end of the world and that he wasn't the type of person or Dad that blew his top off but rather the opposite, one who would have listened and helped his son. Chas after killing his Dad text his mom asking her to pick him up a soda on her way home, knowing that he was going to kill her after her going out of her way and doing one last chore for him, that is chilling.

Make sure you tell your family you love them and not to chop you up if they get mad

That’s what my son said. “All that subterfuge and a double murder instead of telling his folks he wanted a gap year!?”

Lol you probably haven't met many narcissists/psychopaths

Yeah narcissists, sociopaths and the bunch live in a delusion they will protect at all costs. They will also do w.e necessary to avoid taking responsibility. Scary bunch with absolutely zero empathy or compassion. He most likely even felt like the victim of his own actions as bizarre as that sounds to you or I.

I think he was waiting for an excuse, so he could cash in on the life insurance.

Exactly. That’s what I don’t get about all these people we are seeing, mainly guys but some girls have done this, who kill their parents rather than say, “I flunked out of school and haven’t had tv guts to tell you. I need help.” Even if they’ve been getting the money and had been living off that like Chandler clearly did for a while, as did that girl in Ohio who beat her mom with a cast iron skillet and stabbed her 31 times in the neck 💔. Just admit it. They love you. They won’t be doing anything drastic. It’s insane these murderous reactions!!

​@@olderwiser64NOT *all* parents would be that understanding. Just saying.

and Chandler in court as he listens to it. omg.

Right? Broke my heart. You could hear the disappointment and embarrassment in his voice.

Broke my heart....

"Im ready when you are" man that really sucks.

How did he record the phone call??

I was thinking, all that insurance cash is going to be ashes in that poor guy's mouth. Just pure sh*t.

And his girlfriend poor kid, she supported the scumbag and thought they were going to have a nice life in Florida. Her loving mum and partner now have to live on their farm where he disposed of his parents’ remains. The dude is sick as.

@@staybent9380 the fact she said that nothing seemed weird or off about him in the days where he was dismembering his family is so cold and scary.

@@HumanHamCube she probably wanted that trust fund too

@@HumanHamCube I think he was probably always kind of distant and detached in their relationship so his behavior probably didn't seem too unusual to her.. he seems a little off to begin with imo

Technically he didn’t ask. He commanded “get pop”

It was fear not lazyness.

Reminds me exactly of my 40 year old ex. He was technically homeless when we broke up last year, living out of his van, because of incompetence and laziness Had no debilitating mental illness or drug addiction.

@@didndido3638Fear of getting a freaking job and getting off his lazy azz?? Gtfoh with excuses for this grown man, please 😒

@@didndido3638It absolutely was laziness and shame maybe, but not fear. Unless he’s scared of job applications lol. His parents were so up his ass he could’ve worked at a casey’s for the rest of his life and they’d be happy. But he was a lazy narcissist. He wanted all of the praise without any of the work.

Pathetically impressive in a strange way. (My deepest fear is Microsoft spreadsheets)

Yeah or even just to have gotten a job somewhere. Anywhere. They certainly didn’t seem like the type of parents that would judge him. My God he was still living with them at 26 years old and they hadn’t kicked him out yet so I think they could handle him taking a customer service job or some entry-level work

@@amazingsupergirl7125 he was actually 23

@@hsindera irrelevant. The lazy entitled POS attempted to take the easy way out and cash in...however what he DIDNT count on was that his overall stupidity and lack of basic common sense that immediately came back to screw him over lmao. He deserves a firing squad. However I rarely say this but ya know what...I think his ignorance of realizing how good he had it living at home, not working, mooching off the fam...is going to be just the absolute PERFECT internal torture when he's in prison with no money now, nothing to do, knows no one, if he wasn't motivated before good God he has nothing to be motivated for now 😂

Big jump from lying to murder and dismemberment.. psychopath plain and simple. Sadly they didn't have an inkling what he was capable of.

I guess his brother gets the house and everything now! Including the $1million life insurance, or does he have to share that with his brother?

So often in these stories you just think why? but I suppose to a certain type of person it's a logical solution to their issue- whereas it wouldn't even occur to the majority of people- and in every case its the stupidest and worse course of action you could possibly take. He could have easily cleaned up his act, got qualifications, got a good job and moved on with his life. As it is his life is over. And his brother doesn't have a family any more. Heartbreaking.

He thought he’d have it easy living off of the insurance money. Btw I love that Mike teased us with the insurance music rather than the full-on insurance dance 🕺 - hysterical!!

I will forgive alot.

Word. We’re all capable of f’d up actions in life. Even immensely. But these tragedies spring from individuals who have no conscience and are high on levels of psychopathy and narcissism. That’s what separates…

I just realised that it most likely would’ve ended differently if the dad/family had just called him into the kitchen and told him they knew, wanted some kind of resolution…rather than set up that meeting backing him into a corner. But I understand wanting the satisfaction of seeing the POS squirm. Hindsight is always 20/20.

I can't wait to hear it😂

Touche is an acknowledgment of a good point at one's expense. I don't believe you can say "little touches like that" and be correct. Just fyi.

@@dillonhillierThx for pointing that out; its fixed.

I caught that, too! 😅😅 Humor is such an important coping mechanism, shining light up against the darkness. Mike is very, very good at this.

​@AnthonyQuinnJr You edited your comment because of a douche? Lol I understood what you meant and it was fine.

Ugh I know....😳💔

@@JD-qx7ty yes that as well

And to shoot your own father in the back....

A Chandlerton

Yeah, it's always the same story... And then they top it off with a plead of "not guilty"... Classic.

He should’ve stayed in school to learn that that wouldn’t have been the best choice! 🙄

Irony takes 0 time off

Maybe he should have gotten a job and moved out of the house.

@@sunshinesweetlove..8066 Indeed. Obviously for this psychopath slob, that was a bridge too far. If he'd put one tenth of the effort he'd summoned up to slaughter his family into study or work...

good comparison. i thought the same thing

Keep going, it'll definitely pay off. Rely on your support system when you need to.

Honestly this situation is super common. I also failed at college the first time and I was scared to tell my parents. I ended up moving away, clear across the country. After a few years, when I was more mature, I went back to college and finished my degree. If every young adult in this situation murdered their parents, there would be a national killing spree. Like Mike said, he could have done literally ANYTHING else.

6 months later, I hope you're ding well in school.

I hope things are going well for you. Whether or not you're still in school: it's not for everyone, and that's ok. It doesn't have to be. Great things can come from a degree, and great things can come from choosing a trade, or passion. Success can come from so many different avenues. It just takes decision and moving forward; one day at a time. Best of luck! And thank you for not murdering your parents. 😉

Unleash the beast, Marvin. The voices are calling you Marvin, you know you want the blood.

That’s what we like to call being a good, decent human being. Lol.

That's exactly what I had pointed out in my comments, too. Living in a life-wide set of lies and deception just makes me feel like I would absolutely crumble and collapse and have my life be nothing but a constant panic attack. I have had problems with PAs for much of my life because of my poor health, so adding lies and deception to that would just do me in.

@@n00dles79 it's got nothing to do with decency, people don't always lie for bad reasons but maybe because they got themselves into something that overwhelmed them and it went so deep they found no other way. I found myself in a similiar situation not long ago but it was cause I was in early stages of my depression which I didn't know then and a few days of not being able to get up and being absent turned into over a year. I felt too ashamed to show up in university and I felt so guilty and ashamed I couldn't bring myself to disappoint my dad admitting I lied to him so much. Everyday I went out in the morning and came back in the evening, sitting my ass flat in the library or just driving around until I deemed it late enough to go back home. You're anxious and on edge every day, you don't sleep anymore. It's like backing yourself into a corner and you hate that you're lying but you don't wanna disappoint the people you love so you keep on lying and it's a toxic cycle and I felt absolutely helpless. Original commenter is right, it is highly anxiety inducing, I started to have suicidal thoughts at one point to finally make the torture I was subjecting myself to stop and to spare myself disappointing my parents with the truth. I think this is less about lying but rather what you do with your lies. I was found out but didn't murder my parents and that's where I guess where one can speak about having decency cause no decent person murders their parents for lying to them. Usually people would want to flee by hurting themselves, yet chandler chose to kill his parents and it makes me think he was just a massive asshole.

Right? Honestly I would be freaking the hell out. I haven't always done the right thing in my life, but I've never been a big liar. My mom would straight up ask me if I was high when I was a teenager and I would just go "yep. It helps me deal with school and anxiety" and she just went "oh, well don't get arrested" lmao

Seriously. I think every adult has experienced lying about certain things they're ashamed of. I've run into old friends when I was between jobs, and when they'd ask where I was working, I would just tell them my last place of employment. It can be embarrassing to tell someone you're currently unemployed, especially if you're just catching up. But I wouldn't lie to my SO, family, or close friends about that... Because holy shit is that a lot of effort. What's the point?

I don't think any father ever has thoughts like that and even never should have. That's horrible. This is way beyond a serial killer killing random people. Killing your own father is hatrid, that built up through out the years, that just turned into pure evil with absolutely no emotion whatsoever.

Very sad for the parents 🥺

@@robertasliutas2903 Pretty fucked up to minimize people getting killed randomly. I personally think it's much worse than getting killed by someone you know. People choose to have children; they don't choose to be abducted/raped/tortured/murdered.

@@amityislandchum The comments he made didnt minimize anything. He simply compared it to random killings. When you choose to kill blood relatives or close friends it is much more of an emotional involvement than random killings. That is simply the point this person was making.

His father telling him "I'm ready whenever you are" broke my heart.

Mike is right, the defense was not existent. not even a failed attempted at insanity

I dont blame video games for violence but chez definitely fried his brain with it..

I am always so freaked out when people cut up their victims. It is especially sickening to imagine having that kind of physical contact with one's parents. 🤮

Especially the ones who were alone when he came by, and they let him into their homes.

Just think about his gf too...

They smelled it

In most cases these cowards don't even show them ...they are dead before they know what's happening. Grant Amato, same thing. Most none of these people know. Horrible, yet probably better to not know. This case I see many similarities to Grant Amato. Their whole story of their life, their futures ...built on lies. Grant was living his life the same way and it would not last forever..

@b1_1nnies ahhhh wait. If someone shoots you in the back of the head like Amato's mother; I'm gonna have to beg to differ. Gurgle Gurgle. *Gasp* and dead. Depends on what kinda firepower you're shooting with. If it's . 22 you might even live. But they were shooting with large caliber. Some ppl really do cut your head off so fast you see yourself if decapitated. As someone that almost died myself; I can attest to the body just so badly wanting to hang on it's nearly pathetic. And extremely painful. Some ppl just go out quicker

No offense, but I would prefer living without parents than with those who may have too high toxic expectations. We don't know what their family life was like.

@@Jabarri74 We can't have a society without a defense of criminals. They have to do the best job defending they can, or the killer can easily walk. Or someone innocent can go to jail. There was just nothing for this defense to do in this case. But they always have to do the best with what they have, to ensure a fair trial that murderers can't wriggle out of, and good defense attorneys know that, that's how they do their job. We should be thankful to even have them.

@@maschaorsomething That's not offensive, it's a little sociopathic, though. You might want to seek some therapy or evaluation because it's not a normal thought pattern.

Weeeellllllllllll, they knew that he was guilty as h_ll, but couldn't say that as his lawyer. They did the best they could with a client they knew was guilty as sin. What else are they going to say?

They really phoned it in, for sure

I think they honestly didn't want to defend him. The cops didn't even wanna interrogate him.

I've always wondered what is a defense lawyer supposed to do if every piece of evidence proves the client is guilty?

@@jokuihmehyyppa Yes since we are born with rights, we still have to have a defence attorney. Now, does that attorney have to actually do a good job for you? Absolutely not

He was probably like "Why is this kid who has jobs that he wakes up early for still asking us for food and money all the time and depending on us." I can say one thing, trying to maintain a lie of not having a job is hard as heck enough to maintain, been there, done that, adding curricular acheivements onto that as well.. Heck no. I regret ever being such a depressed turd that I'd ever lie to my family about that. Thankfully, getting better mentally, relationship has started building trust up again. Would never jeopardize that again.

@@vtwinbreed well atleast you know that now. Go in HYPER WINNER MODE.

You could be looser but not a killer man.

To kill his parents he must be a psychopath. The parents likely knew something was very wrong with him, but wanted him to grow up. The lack of emotion is a telltale of psychopathy. The video game generation of psychopaths have even less social interaction, so are even less able to hide their nature.

@@redelfshotthefood8213 Yes and they dont watch CSI ......what a bunch of losers , . I left my parents home when i was 16 ., and made it all the way to the top .

You need to read up on sociopaths ans psychopaths, they don't have all of the emotions that make us human... fascinating and scary.

yes, this is extremely heart breaking 😔

And the woman that literally just stopped & got him soda on her way home :/ Her text response "k i can" always hits me hard.

Hey I get it in some cases of horrible abusive parents but his parents were nothing but loving and supportive, that I don't get ?

@@andysalter7192 Maybe, but you never know how kids are treated behind closed doors.

Another interesting thing of note was during his police interrogation he kept referring to the family home as "my house". 👀

Why wouldn’t he inquire who the people were that his parents were traveling with? Of course we know there was no trip at all, but it just makes his dumb alibi that much more illogical.

he had been lying to his girlfriends mother that his parents were awful to him to the point that she disliked them even though she had never met them. He was trying to prime her to allow him to move in so he could continue not paying rent.

You shouldn’t judge people bc they talk different than you esp if it’s small things like that ..

​@stancexpunks hmm I think the OP had some valid and good points. Showed disconnection and self centeredness. Those are signs in these kind of situations, if you need to look at the smallest abnormalities to explain what happened in a bizarre investigation.

I remember catching that when they played it at trial 😂😂 The detective was on a mission

I think what pained him most was his lies being so publicly exposed. He cares about no one but himself.

I know..I am a mother and when that came out I felt that in my 💥💔 heart. What a cold blooded psychopath.

That is argumentative, disputative, irrelevant , aggravating and irrelevant for my client

You never accidentally dismember yourself and your torso lands in a woods somewhere far away from your home?

To be fair the death itself could have been an accident( obviously not for two people though as in this case) but once you cover it up it automatically should be considered murder at that point, imo.

Robert Durst shot his neighbor and dismembered the body. Dumped the body in the ocean where pieces floated and were later found on the beach. He was arrested. Bailed out and fled. Was on the run for months. Eventually was found and went to trial. He claimed self defense. Jury found him not guilty. Also he was likely a serial killer. Probably killed 6 to 12 people in his lifetime.

Ikr she was just talking to hear herself speak.🙄

jeez louise, so gruesome and cruel and cold hearted...i cannot undersrand how anyone could do this to anyone let alone their parents💔

Same, especially when he was moving around checking the cameras angle. I suspect she also got bad vibes from the guy.

Thought the same thing. I was like “why is she opening the door?!??! He’s a monster!!!”

Well he could have tripped and fell and the gun went off and killed both his parents, and then he may have tripped a few more times and accidentally severed their limbs. When he dumped their body parts he could have been sleep walking. Just kidding. 🙄🤣

I think she got strange vibes from him and was afraid he'd push her inside an force his way in or something along those lines. She was smart to start speaking louder and walk to the driveway. Her camera caught so much, and you know she looked at it before the police took it.

I was like “Did the Chris Watts thing just come out on Netflix?” Also odd that this is the second case I’ve seen of someone killing the parents they were lying to about being successful. So weird.

Good one!

it's true, but i'm also amazed at Halderson's gall letting this go to trial. The state had a slam-dunk case (because Halderson is an idiot, who uses their indoor fireplace in Wisconsin in July?) Halderson tried to be absent at his own sentencing after he was found guilty though. He's not really connected to reality.

Absolutely yes that was messed up 🤦‍♂️

​@@therealz360z7obviously not what they're saying here. It's creepy that he felt comfortable enough after doing what he did to casually act like nothing was off.

❤❤❤

Reporter: understandable, have a great day

So strange, right? What a bastard.

Damn!

He misunderstood the question. The reporter obviously meant emotionally. He only thinks about him and the only reason he'd be missing them is to get shit and food for him and that's how he answered.

@@erinc9391 lt was the perfect answer from him.

the worst thing being that his family still will have stuck up with him even after the deception of his lies...

Killed those who loved him the most, that is extremly disturbing

Its crazy instead of facing his shame and keeping everyone living!!! He thought it was better idea to kill to keep his shame a secret…smdh he’s a real loser! No job but some how got a gf and a car…parents gave him more than he deserved!

I'm going to guess he thought he would get away with it. He believed he could lie well enough. I think that is fairly common among people who commit premeditated murder. In his mind he would be able to burn his parents remains in the fireplace and they would disappear. Truth is you can forge steel at the temps the crematorium operates at. I also think his motivation was the life insurance. If his brother would have been around he would have killed him too. more money. Not so much the shame, though I am sure that was a factor.

when children murder their parents i feel like there is some major underlying issues within the family itself so its hard to completely blame them for being a product of their enviroment

My mum is type 1, it really is an underrepresented condition.

@@Livikyu It's seriousness really is. People have the attitude of "Just do your shots and you'll be fine." As you know, if only it were that easy. Between type 1 and type 2, type 1 only accounts for 1% of diabetics. It really is like a different disease. So many complications arise from it. For instance, I have to get eye injections every six weeks to keep my eyesight. And I've always taken it very seriously.

@@Pantheragem yeah my mum had to get monthly injections in her eyeball to save her sight. Thankfully the treatment worked but its looking like she's going to need it again. She is 60 so it's all catching up. It's so different to type 2 it baffles me how they're still so associated with each other

Also has to forever deal with people’s suspicions that he must have had some knowledge/culpability. After all the brothers were close and he had just as much to gain. Being the only survivor in a tragedy like this is rough.

Will be 27 years for me in April, and I feel especially bad for the brother as well. I couldn't imagine having to deal with losing my family in the worst way possible on top of being newly diagnosed at his age. Not to mention the hospital bills and co-pays for meds and testing supplies that probably haven't even fully hit yet. Even if T1D doesn't ruin your life, the increased cost of surviving will.

😂😂😂👍

@JoLo Which channel did you watch it on? I'd like to watch it, too, but don't want to choose the wrong channel and end up with some weird-ass commentary or something throughout.

Law&Crime, as seen in the corner of the trial video

I ain't gonna lie to you, she had no choice.🤣 idk why they didn't make him take a plea.

Imagine simping for a killer just to get laid.

@@BalboaBaggins lol that's not what's happening. the public defender psychology is that by trying their best, guilty people can justifiably be put away and innocent ones can be saved. without her trying to help him getting away with murder, he can't justifiably be convicted of murder. it has nothing to do with simping or getting laid.

@@BalboaBaggins also, you know public defenders almost uniformly earn under a 100 grand a year right? nobody is doing that work for models and bottles.

When he talked to the police he screwed his own defense. Also I watched some of this trial live and I suspect his girlfriend had a hand in this.

"I feel like my old self again. Totally inadequate, completely insecure, paranoid, neurotic. It's a pleasure."

I think even George would consider that too great a transgression.

Was that wrong?

Wasn't there an episode where George pretended to have a twitch in his arm or leg and developed an actual one?

@@CB-lt2vb Yup, he hits his elbow after leaving the doctor.

Time stamp?

I know, poor girl! She turned every lock when she went inside.

i liked how he was looking where the cameras were

@@skarletrose1 10:20

No one cares

Thank you for the information

About you,

Damn that’s weird.

They mentioned he shot his father in the back so I think what you are saying makes sense, he was not able to face his father we know from the fatal wounds, he shot the man that raised him from behind. We will likely never know what if anything was said to his parents before this horrific Crime but my heart just hurts for both of them and the son that remains. This young man is so mentally sick to even lie like he was he clearly had major issues I think but I’m sure his family never imagined he would do something so sickening! It’s unreal how people seem to choose killing as an option like they are seriously going to get away with that ??? It blows my mind.

His father was shot in the back so unless he tried to run away after seeing his son with a gun, Chandler most likely was a coward and shot him behind the back

Not only that, she seemed to be extremely loving and sweet! It's not as if he can pretend to have been cursed with the mother from Hell (which _still_ wouldn't justify what he did).

You are a sociopath or worse

lolol

He almost got away with it too if it wasn’t for his girlfriend. Thank god RIP

It's not over until the FAT LADY sings !

@@joshb.4404 those remains would have been found sooner or later, theres no way he would have gotten away with it.

@@Nightknight1992 idk the weather over time can destroy evidence but what was found in the barrel yeah that's not going anywhere I don't understand why he revisited where he dumped the body and evidence that was foolish

At least that guy was man enough to face the consequences, this Chandler guy was coward af

At the end of the day he can say he wasn’t a killer and try to rebuild his life. It won’t be easy but sure beats prison

If he want's a PhD, he can get help and still get one. If he no longer wants a PhD, so many people have led incredibly fulfilling lives and had very rewarding careers without one. I hope he has someone in his life that can help him to come to terms with whatever he decided. We are the wardens of the mental prisons we lock ourselves in. I went through a situation where I tied my identity to my success in grad school and went thru a period of depression when my success wasn't commensurate with the amount of work I was putting in. Fortunately, I had some mentors and was able to work out why I felt the way I did.

The prosecution said it best about Chandler: Instead of fessing up to it...like a "coward", he just shot his dad in the back, and then killed his mother. Wow.

yeah like 99% of all americans who have no phd.

Had to get money for COD skins somehow

I feel for his brother who lost an entire family in one day.

I disagree with you. I actually understand the guy. He shouldn't have killed them. Just fled far away and started new life instead. In any sketchy situation just flee - best solution ever.

A true psychopath, no conscience at all. Nice to get his girlfriend's parents involved, even if only peripherally by dumping his father's torso in their property. Thank goodness his girlfriend's mother is as observant as she is and promptly contacted the authorities.

I'm guessing he knew that eventually they would have thrown him out, and he realized that there would be NO MORE freeloading off of Mom and Dad, NO MORE hiding in his room playing video games all day and night, and in general, NO MORE Loser life on easy street.

Ciotka Beata, had he had a to do list.

He was like most killers, he thought it would be easier to kill his parents then tell the truth or get a regular job

they wouldn't know about it, that is left to us.

I have two small children and watching them grow is such a gift. I cannot fathom them becoming adults that could do such a thing.

It happens, Look at the columbine kids parents. They don't feel like they did anything wrong. Except neglect their kids and raise them to be social outcasts.

@@angelaadams1858 I can and I stay away from them.

@@bikecontroller3268 pretty sure they would be aware of who murdered them

especially liars like him that have all the opportunities in the world that others dream of having
