Son murders and dismembers parents after they discover he lied about college and job at SpaceX – Everything Law and Order Blog

In this episode of True Crime Daily The Podcast updates: The July 4 holiday should have been fun and festive for Wisconsin couple Bart and Krista Halderson. Instead, the couple was violently murdered and dismembered with their remains dumped in various locations.

Bart and Krista’s son, Chandler Halderson, reported them missing July 7, 2021, and said they went to their lake cabin but never returned. The next day, police found human remains in a rural area. The remains were identified as Bart’s. About three weeks later, investigators located Krista’s remains.

Chandler was initially arrested for providing false information, but prosecutors upgraded his charges to first-degree homicide, hiding a corpse, and mutilating a corpse.

He went to trial in January 2022. Dane County prosecutors told the jury that Chandler murdered his parents because they had discovered he had been lying to them about his attendance at college and his job prospects. After just two hours of deliberation, Chandler was convicted.

In March 2022, a judge sentenced Chandler to life in prison without parole.

Let’s look back at the episode where Dr. Nicky Jackson and I discussed the case.

  1. A demon. Not a darn kid at 23, even some 14 year olds get treated as adults in court. Pacifying this crap will keep the drum rolling for these matters on everyone else’s doorstep….mass murdering, potential manifestos

  2. Hard to believe something like this can even happen. Maybe he should have been from a one parent home instead of a two parent home. 🤦🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️The usual suspected serial killer..!!!

  3. If he killed and dismembered his father, he would do the same to his mother! He is a despicable person and his barbaric crime deserves the death penalty, asap! I can't believe that a person would kill a parent or parents because they exposed his lies!! SHAME! smh!😨😰

  4. The forensics, cell data witnesses, neighbor's camera footage of the house showing fire inside Chandler's house, all the testimony in the trial is absolutely amazing.

  5. The correspondent that claimed that the majority of kids who kill are white, is obscenely incorrect. The majority of kids who kill are actually African American. However, the kids who killed their parents the majority of the time are white. I feel like this correction needs to be a discerned.

  6. You guys are tripping calling this grown ass man a kid
    Then you make every excuse for his murders
    Saying that you don’t know what went on in his home
    HE KILLED HIS FREAKING PARENT, He’s a dam killer, murderous coward
    Whew the narrative you guys ran with

  7. Chandler claimed that his parents were going with unknown friends to celebrate the 4 th; at the small town parade. However there wasn't a parade. He also claimed they took a lot of alcohol with them. Then remarking about the cheap bar prices. Weird neighbors interactions inquiry about the cameras. He dumped the bodies in favored spots he had a history going too . His Dad had discovered the college deception. Police found wrapped in foil their phones in his garage. .

  8. This newer generation of grown azz 'kids' is a crazy trip. We love, nurture, teach, feed them, etcetera. We think we know them; we believe they love us the same. Next thing we know, they are taking us out for something that could have been discussed as rational ADULTS 😢🤦

  9. It's like a knee jerk reaction to coddle and humanize certain criminals. Twenty-three year old kid??? Give me a break! No one is a murder until they, wait for it… murder someone! Not only is he a grown man, he is a psychopath! A bad person! Stop with the excuses!!!

  10. I don’t understand, is this an old broadcast? I watched the trial live…the mother’s body (parts) were found at another location. Near waters edge, where Chandler was known to frequent. Also, they found the Fathers body (again, parts) on the property of someone close to Chandler’s girlfriend (she called police to tell them she saw him coming out of the woods in the back of her property, acting suspiciously. They later found a shotgun hidden in a shed on the same property.
    Chandler is a nut job, for sure! Suggest looking up more details on the case and trial…just crazy!!!

  11. How about people .being plain evil the most sane people can get trigger happy , let's face the truth , America allows people left right and centre to own weapons for self defense , no wonder so many woman .murdered by their spouses and visa versa , guns has become a curse in America , the more you go against it, the more liberals will defend it, so all the killing should be a total responsibility of whoever allows it, and think its their own right to protection , all of them, even if their own got killed , the blame is the Government .even if America stops all use of weapons , they will never be able to retrieve all weapons until the end of days , this law.has been planted since the start of the Americans existence, you Dont know until you know from the beginning you know, but you don't know until you know for sure he did it, and his mother must be dead also

  12. Entitle psychopath. He probably never heard the word "no" in his life, and when the parents threatened him with taking all of his commodities away, he lost it.

    Also….he is NOT a freaking kid !!. I don't know why they keep saying he was just a kid. He was old enough to smoke, drink, own a gun, and go to war.

  13. The bias language regarding the suspect is unsettling bc it seems like he’s already being given some degree of protection from a stiffer punishment. I hope the prosecution team doesn’t share the same sentiment as the commentator in this video.
