What a lovely, kind and caring woman. She even took him out to dinner to celebrate his new job….the job that didn’t exist. Shows the kind of person he is.
Agree. And even thought about how to help Chandler after he "lost his SpaceEx job". Maybe Chandler thought they would be the next money providers / scam victims.
@@xeno4746 did you watch his police interview? That's exactly what he was planning, for at least as long as it took for the insurance money to come in (it's funny but no laughing matter)
@@3_up_moon Indeed. Both are narcissistic compulsive liars. Yes, I have seen his interrogation and I am following his trial. I just can't imagine these lawyers getting Chandler free. Certainly not considering the burned heads in the fireplace and father's torso in the territory of his "future mother-in-law".
She got me when they asked her to describe her backyard, and she described it so beautifully. It was her place of peace, and Chandler went over there, took advantage of her kindness, and defiled her safe haven with horrific atrocities. How can you not unsee it ?
Just the amount of support that Chandler had is incredible. Every witness so far had his wellbeing in mind, it's heartbreaking that he was duping every one of them
So true. Not only those close to him but even his neighbors and complete strangers, pretty much everyone in this case, showed him kindness when he absolutely didn't deserve it.
typical sociopath. they lie and trick everyone around them and take advantage of everything and everyone they can. I would love to have had 1 ounce of the support this pod had
all those lies just caught up and he knew his dad would find out, his girlfriend will break up with him and everyone who "thought' they knew him, really didnt. So killing his parents wasnt just based off him finding out, but others around him too...Its sad situation. Being a bum playing video games. He could had gotten a job and been honest right after telling his parents that he flunked out. It was too hard....instead he lead everyone on...lie after lie after lie...and to sit there and drag these people through court is sad..now you want to appeal?. he hired a new attorney...he knew he killed them..hes seen in that area. hes seen in the home with the fireplace burning in his home where he left a piece of skull behind...its his rifle..i mean, you cant get anymore guilty.
Well, you know what they say about lies. It's best to be honest from the start instead of having to keep lying to make more to cover the first one. Unfortunately, this guy took it too far
Dear God. Can you imagine your daughter sleeping in the same bed as a guy who had just murdered and dismembered his own parents. This is quite literally a nightmare for this poor woman.
Unless the daughter knew... She was in the house the day he burned his parents remains in the fireplace. Neighbors 3 houses down could smell that unmistakable smell, but she, who was in the house right next to the fireplace, couldn't? Also, she lied about buying ice. Also, she offered to help Chandler load the car to take to the dump, but when questioned about it, she claims she can't remember what he was loading into the car. Very convenient for her. Also, when the police picked her up to talk to her about the missing parents, at which point everyone thought they were just missing, she was crying hysterically and throwing up. That's bizarre to say the least. And lots of other details, important details that she claims she couldn't remember in her testimony. Very convenient to say the least.
The prosecutor himself stated in closing arguments that Cat wasn’t involved in any way. It’s common for people to blame women in these cases, even women who have been abducted or were used as unwitting accomplices, and call them complicit even with absolutely no evidence. It’s base libel, and it further victimizes people who will be affected by violent crime for the rest of their lives. Shameful.
Where on earth did you get all that you just said? She wasn't there that day while he was burning them... I'm not even going to dispute what I know you said is BS so where did you get your info.? Comprehension must be one of your weak points. You think because you type a bunch of crap that isn't true that people will just believe you? And her throwing up was while she was in the other room talking to detectives about how he had been acting lately and she threw up because she found out what he did. They told her what he did. The prosecutor actually said that she was not only vomiting information for them, she was really vomiting. She showed the screen shot of his being out where he claimed to her that he was getting CBD but he was actually dumping some of his mom. She asked him what the smell was.. so where on earth did you hear otherwise? I know I'm likely not going to get a reply from you with an answer that makes sense. Actually it will likely be crickets.
And when they picked them up for questioning LE DID know all about what he had done. They had found the remains he dumped on the farm. Again, where did you hear all the BS you are saying? Your comprehension skills need serious work.
It did seem she was not disclosing Info But for fear to incriminate herself but she innocent You could tell she had difficulty with understanding the boyfriend strangeness She didn’t have any male guidance her life.. that is certain
This kid had everything going for him. Loving parents, loving in-laws, loving girlfriend. All he needed to do is to get on his own feet and start a life with his GF. That's all... He never struggled in his life with anything. I....speechless.
Exactly 💯. Was handed everything his whole life. Lived in a beautiful home with both parents in a very nice, crime free neighborhood. He took everything for granted & acted as if everything was owed 2 him. Didn't even want 2 go 2 school or god forbid obtain employment. It's unbelievable what a narcissist his is.
It's completely delusional how he thought that was the right outcome for him completely lying and just wanting to be a bum apparently. Its so unimaginable and to think he would get away is just completely asinine i will never understand but this case was very disturbing yet riveting.
This poor sweet women is absolutely traumatized by being involved in this story, having to share personal details of her life, and believing she has to be perfectly accurate in her testimony. I hope she's doing okay
The Latino community doesn't look favorably upon homosexual relationships. They are very traditional and are largely Catholic and very devout, compared to the average American. Having been outed in such a public way was undoubtedly very humiliating for her. She was living a nice quiet life with Cress, and both of these women have been thrown into this web of lies. Chandler used them, like he used his girlfriend and especially his parents. He is a taker and a faker. He is a liar and a coward. He is allegedly a murderer.
This prosecutor and judge seem genuinely caring, gentle, connected, and compassionate. The nature of legal training tend to set people up for the opposite disposition, and that’s only natural. These guys are downright sappy, and I’m grateful for it with this dear witness.
I would say that the prosecutor and the judges - in general - seems like more compassionate than their counterparts in the 90's. I don't like political correctness buuuut in favor of the PC is that people are more compassionate and gente, in the legal ⚖ field, than before. 😊 "Less" formalities and more effectiveness and consideration in the public sector ("room")...😊
@@caracolcaracolito6279 Yeah, that’s true. Seems like you & I are both old enough to remember what the ORIGINAL “political correctness” meant back in the 90s, which was soooooooo different from what it means now!

38:25 Her long pause here absolutely broke my heart. The things Chandler put her through, being made to feel dirty when he came into the pool despite her and her partner not wanting him there to see her topless. He shattered her idyllic, peaceful view of her home, her sanctuary, because that wretched man thought nothing of exploiting their kindness and dumping his parents on her property. I'd bet dollars to donuts that Chandler was going to try and pin the murders on her, Kris, or Cat because of that.
You said it better than I did, so I deleted my newer comment. It seems to me, that her children were growing up well, she found her love and paradise. And this monster just ruined it. Awful. My heart is broken for her.
I think he just didn't think they'd look there. He did not seem to bright with his google searches and how he acted after. How awful he was Washing their blood off of himself with them in the pool..so gross and disrespectful
I'm sure it's terrifying knowing that a man who was capable of something so horrific was dating her daughter for 2 years, and frequently staying at their house.
Soooo TRUE...and I'm an Ashley as well 😆 This was my thought exactly. No, definitely not any drugs....just horrific, heinous acts that are the very things of most peoples worst nightmare 🤔
Poor Dulce. She seems like a very genuine person who doesn't understand how evil people can be. Also, she realizes that her sweet daughter was with a monster.
Yes 😔 it's terrible. And at min 34 you can see Dulce's face 😔 so worried and sad 😔 poor woman 👩 🤗 that seemed to get along with the whole family 👪 (which is not that common ❤️ when a "foreigner" is with an American family...😊 Poor woman she seemed to liked everyone no animosity etc. 😊 🤗
Her name means "candy", which is so fitting. She seems so sweet and innocent. She's a wonderful person, and that wretched creature took advantage of her and thought nothing of it.
If she didn't understand before she understands now. But I think most Mexican immigrants, especially of her age, understand exactly how evil people can be. Don't confuse her kindness for naivete.
My heart is so broken seeing her who seems so humble and kind to the core being humiliated having to speak of such personal things and the horror of what n who her daughter was involved with. This case is so disturbing.
@Merry Nothing agreed, probably started as a small lie or failure to do something and it grew and grew. This poor lady made a poor witness. Chandler has all the signs of Factitious Disorder.
He even disposed of his parents' bodies on the farm that she loved so much and described as a "paradise". He violated that paradise. His evil tainted it, just as he left everyone and everything in his path devastated. It's sickening, and I feel really bad for everyone around him.
He does everything possible to make the anxious witnesses feel at ease and comes across as a really nice guy for them however I would love to see him in action with a combative witness. I reckon he would remain really professional but "take no prisoners"!
The mom and Cress make such a lovely couple. You can just tell they’re so kind. Sad that their peaceful lives had to be interrupted by such ghastly circumstances.
I just hope this traumatic situation doesn’t change this woman’s heart. She did the right things for the wrong person. People like her are a light, in a world full of darkness. Don’t let this break you, Dulce. We see the genuine person you are.
Yeah, she's adorable. U can tell she cared about him. And what a treat to find out shes a lesbian. It makes her so much more charming. And her gf has the coolest name I've ever heard. Cresent L'Sai. So cool lol
When she poked fun at herself for riding the lawnmower "like two grannies going to the..." I smiled, she seems like a genuinely sweet person, who doesn't have an ego, and just pleasant to be around
Defense: "It wasn't that you were uncomfortable because of Chandler, right? You were just uncomfortable because Chriss was topless." Dulce: "No, I was uncomfortable because I told Chandler not to get in the pool and he ignored me and got in anyway." (Then proceeded to wash his murdered father's blood and bile off in the pool with us).
@@Dearest_orugitas I about threw up when she started making those washing gestures. I thought there was no way, NO WAY he could be that much of a sick monster that he'd wash himself off right in front of them while they were still in the pool with him. But he did.
After hearing how loving and supportive Dulce was on the phone with Chandler and how he told her that he loved her during a jail call when she called him in jail before the trial, she must have felt really duped and thankful that her daughter is safely away from him after all the lies he told her were exposed during the trial. Such a sweet lady.
YES!! He kept his lies up throughout every phone call, trying to convince them everything would be ok and he was innocent. It was so sad hearing those calls knowing what he had done and them still holding onto hope. 😢
@@pj89-96 it wasn't a hope other than keep us out of your situation, because she gave a lot of pieces of information that helped in getting him convicted. Like, he could easily tell the prescution that it was Cat's idea to kill his parents and that she helped him in cleaning the crime scene, and everyone would like to believe him.. she was there just 2 days after the murder and she bought him ice, and he even buried the remains of his father in her mother's finacee's farm after Cat gave him the keys to go there!
Both of these women seem so kind and laid back. Ideal moms. How dare he involve their beautiful and sacred home in his depraved violence!? Blessings to those effected by this, time does heal. XxxooO
I just said pretty much the same thing. Chandler cared about no one, but Chandler. He had no qualms about dragging all these people into his depravity and crimes. These women didn’t ask to be involved. Now their lives have been upended and broadcasted to the masses.
I swear, I want to reach through my screen and hug this woman.....this was such a frightening experience for her. Bless her.....I think her answers would have been articulated a little better if the court had provided a translator for her. I think this would have made her experience a little less stressful. All in all, she did the best she could and gave very emotional testimony that was real and raw. Love this woman; Bless her heart.
I think her command of the English language is fine. In my humble opinion, I believe she’s so nervous and probably still in shock over knowing her place of peace has been forever ruined is affecting her ability to articulate her thoughts. I’d probably be the same way. Poor lady.
@@OkOkOkJeez Please point us to a place in the video where you able to discern that she really liked Chandler. She is consistently lost when trying to communicate her thoughts.
She is the best, seriously, she brings real heart to the situation. Obviously she is so upset by what she knows what horrors transpired on their property and how they were used by him. So sad, her reactions are so real.
Sweet Dulce truly cared about Chandler. You can tell she is just broken about all of this. I'm sure her daughter is. The betrayal, the hurt, confusion is all obvious. 🥺
I'm not sure she STILL understood the severity of what had occurred. I see what the prosecution was doing, but it seemed a little cruel, and probably unnecessary. If you don't understand that the defendant didn't care about ANYBODY else, and would stop at NOTHING, to get what he wanted by now, You're simply not paying attention!
If anyone randomly comes to my house unannounced, I watch them like a hawk! I do not trust people especially strangers or those I barely know. This guy took advantage of extremely kind people to commit an evil act. May the heal through this trauma!
I think the momma of the ex girlfriend is so sweet. Bless her heart. Can’t imagine what it’s like to find out her precious daughter was dating a guy who has murdered his parents and chopped them up in pieces and leaving pieces on her property. That’s got to be devastating and terrifying he dated her daughter.
I thank everyone in the court who was very kind and understanding to this innocent loving woman who was obviously very uncomfortable talking about any of this
I feel for this woman. You can tell how completely uncomfortable and anxious she is. Talking about personal things (like Cress being topless), how to word things, etc.
How sweet does this woman seem! To be dragged into all this horribleness it must be so traumatic for her x she did absolutely amazing. You can see she had a lot of love for Chandler as basically a son in law and this has really hurt her x
Dulce is such a gentle soul. It’s so hard watching her struggle on the stand. Between nerves and her lack of understanding questions and language watching is painful. I hope she’s still with Cress and healing from chandler’s crimes.
Yes. I was thinking she should have had a translator. The situation is already hard enough without having to work everything out in your second language. I know for me in times of stress my second and third languages like to flee 😅
@@roadvirusheadsnorth5933 b if you listen to her phone conversations with Chandler when he's in jail she says that she knows that he did it and she wants him to know she's going to stand by him...how could she? I believe that's why her girlfriend is no longer in her life...because of that
This is one experience that will forever traumatize these poor people... They all appear to be such kind, decent, compassionate people, and have been dragged into an absolute horror...😥
@@June-tb4vi I can’t really see her visiting him in prison. His crimes are too heinous to just blow off. If it had been something like burglary then yeah, I could see it. But she truly cared for these people. It seems like she felt like part of the family.
I'm so sorry this lady had to go through this. You can tell she has such a good heart, she must be so traumatised, thinking what could have happened to her only daughter. I hope she gets the help she needs to move past this awful mess that someone she trusted and treated kindly involved her in
What a sweet woman she referred to herself as two grannies on the lawn mower. I’m so sorry that her family and daughter had to cross paths with this despicable human
her and her daughter Cat were talking with Chandler in November Cat was putting money on his phone card in jail so he could call her whenever he could. in one call Cat talks about not going to see a movie until he gets out because she wanted to watch it with him. the mother was just as bad disgusting plans for what he could do when he got out. considering what they must have known at that point they both sounded delusional. they talked to him on thanksgiving and had a pity party on the call because the jail served sloppy joes for dinner, and he didn't like them. search Chandler Halderson jail calls if interested.
They were in denial. It's not uncommon and many people have had this happen to them when someone they love did something absolutely horrendous. It doesn't make them bad people. Just blind at the moment considering the overwhelming nature of the accusations. If you paid any attention then you'd know they no longer speak to him. For some people, it takes time. Again, it doesn't make them bad people. Just naive and too trusting.
I don't think she was such a sweet woman. How dare she judge Christa as a poor mother, when she'd never even met her. Not very kindly if you ask me. Plus she and her daughter have many calls while he's in jail inferring he's going to get out and have a celebration of sorts. Even with the evidence in their face, they still feel sorry for this pathetic excuse for a human.
@@jewelwheeler1 Yeah he lied to her about his mother, painting her to be bad person so she would be convinced to let him move in w dulce so he could live rent free. think.
It's very hard to appreciate just how incredibly nerve racking testifying is, unless you have done it. I didn't know how "nervous" felt until I testified. I'm not easily intimidated, I don't get nervous, im not shy. I had to testify in a custody hearing once. Not concerning me, or my kids. So I had nothing to lose. I was shaking!! I can't even imagine testifying in a trial like this! Against your daughters ex, for murdering & dismembering his parents!!!
She talks about Chandler like he was like a son to her, she smiles when talking about things they would do together. So sad and scary that someone you consider family could do something like that. How could you ever trust anyone again? How could her daughter trust anyone again?
I believe the intrusiveness of their home and life is so humiliating. Just as his own mother and father would be profoundly insulted by how their home was portrayed after all of the investigations that needed to happen, but yet would have completely upset their standards. His mother would have died a million deaths if she thought her well cared for home was on film like this. And this woman also would not want her life put out there either. He is horrific
Cat's mother is so caring and sweet. It really would have helped to have a translator for her. Yes, she speaks English well. But she obviously had a lot of anxiety and emotion (very understandably). So even though she speaks and understands English well, it's still her 2nd language and so it just adds another layer on top of her anxiety and fear to have to filter everything she says through English. Being able to speak in her native tongue would have just taken off a bit of pressure I think. I can't believe how many wonderful and caring people Chandler was surrounded by. How could he do this to all of them?
Oh my is this lady sweet. These poor people died so tragically, but watching this trial its obvious that while they were walking this earth they were surrounded by some pretty amazing friends and family.
Seriously, his family and his gf's family seem like genially good people. If Chandler would've just admit his lies, ask them for help and just start over in college........ It could've all turn out very differently.
Her little chuckle and smile when she said they were like two grannies on the lawnmower was so cute.... also Im wondering why Cress would have been in the pool without a top on if they were so uncomfortable, and knew Chandler was still somewhere on the property, where he would be able to see them.
They didn’t see him- they looked for him because that’s where he said he would be. Since he wasn’t there she felt comfortable doing what she always does in her space
I just loved this woman! Her strength, her personality so spontaneous, her intelligence... I liked the way she was tested by the judge and lawyers (both sides). I can’t imagine the shock ...her only daughter was so close to a monster!! God bless those 3 woman ❤️❤️💕
This guy Chandler is such an evil person. He’s left so many victims in his wake. Dragged them all in with the same old lies he fed his parents. To those who want to throw shade at Dulce, really is despicable. These women didn’t ask to be put in this position. Chandler did this when he dumped his father on Cess’s property.
@@troyjt2252 LOL riiiiight 🤣 Can't be KillerKat, I heard the other brother Mitchell is behind it... he hypnotized Chandler & the 2 dogs to attack the parents when they hear the song "Baby Shark"... he called Chandler & played it....
Omg, when she starts crying when having to explain that her female partner was top less, broke my heart! She's such a sweet woman. U can tell she is so humiliated by this! I wonder if she told her daughter about that pool incident. Because Cat didn't mention that part in her police interview.
Poor woman went to drink the hand sanitizer!!!! I can’t imagine having to come to court over something like this! Knowing that your child dated a person that supposedly killed their parents!! How awful!
@Zen Amen i think they meant obviously they didn't fn know before hand but now they sure fn do ay. And to think back that her daughter dated him and slept with him must be awful because he fn definitely did it the defense should have stopped after the prosecutions opening fn statement because the amount of overwhelming fn evidence is absolutely ridiculous ay.
Poor ladies! My lord, I can't even imagine this. Your home, your land is sacred in a way. They allowed him into their safe space. I hope they all have access to therapy and can heal💜🌈💜
Well her name is dulce. 😊 I agree. She is a lovely human. This whole community is just amazing. It's so sad that someone so vile and evil lived amongst them.
This lovely couple found their special paradise on earth and extended their warmth to this... monster that made it a graveyard :( I hope they can still find peace there. It is a wonderful piece of property.
She looks so forlorn. Can you imagine your daughter being involved in this horror? He stayed with you, and you trusted him with your child. It would be both confounding and enraging. Like: how could this happen to us?
And her daughter even slept at this creep's house after he had killed his parents (and still had their bodies in that very house). Poor Cat, too... I bet she won't feel safe dating again for years, if ever.
What a terrible thing to be dragged into the spotlight like this for this person, and for this family. I hope she is able to be at peace in that home again.
I was thinking the same thing. Having a home and property of that size takes dedication. And one must be motivated daily to perform some type of manual labor just to maintain, much less beautify the residence and land. I know from experience, I inherited a “farm” unexpectedly and it is work. So I commend this lady for her hard work and making her place somewhere that exudes pride. And then some young punk comes along and defiles the property and interrupts her peace with such horror bc he didn’t want to confess to his parents that he was lying about his day to day life. Not to mention the strain it placed on her relationship with Dulce. I hope Chandler thinks about her and what he did to her every day of his life.
My heart breaks for this woman, she's so sweet and he took advantage of her and I can't imagine what the daughter is going through after being with this pos for two years and having no idea who he really was. He deceived so many people, including his amazing parents.. it's sickening 😔💔
Dulce and Crescent seem like very sweet people who were ready to enjoy their lives together on the farm. I can't imagine how traumatizing this situation must have been for them..... just knowing that Cat was dating an evil murder was hard enough I'm sure. Just having to testify at court is tough, but in a case like this, to have to relive what was probably some of the scariest days in their lives, must have been tolling. I really hope all the people Chandler impacted are able to find healing.
LOL. I read it differently. Her girlfriend did not respect her enough to cover up in front of her daughter's boyfriend. She really struggled with the embarrassment.
@@mas5867. I took it the same way.. she definitely doesnt agree with cress's lack of modesty 😬What confused me tho was why she got so sad and on the verge of sobbing just mentioning it...?? 😕🤔?? I'd expect a lil annoyed or even some anger but for whatever reason (when testifying in a MURDER trial) the hardest part for dulce to talk about seemed like it was when chandler saw her partner topless..??? 🤨
@@sunshinealice3335 it was the violation. It wasn’t the toplessness - it was that he had just dumped the body. Combined with essentially outing herself on a national and international stage. If you watch carefully, the times she becomes emotional are all tied to how he was interacting with people she loves.
I have been following all of these trial videos on UA-cam..and find it quite interesting to see an actual trial, as opposed to TV show adaptations. It is often difficult to determine what order the videos should be viewed , so I would like to suggest that you slightly alter you video naming. Eg, day 3 first video as Day 3.1, Day 3 second video as Day3.2. This would be greatly appreciated
Just say thank you and be grateful you can view these videos at all AND for free, instead of telling someone how to make the experience EVEN BETTER for your lazy self. Or better still, start your own channel, do the work yourself and YOU label them 3.1, 3.2 and get over yourself. This is what I would greatly appreciate🙄🤦🏻♀️
Eileen I agree with you. I watched the previous video before this and wondered why it had started half way through a testimony. Had no idea that was Cres until she walked in on this video!

sadly, every time they're out in the area he hid his parents bodies they'll think about everything all over again. Years of trauma. Chandler creeping into the pool is eerie.
So im Confused, was it at their farm or at the haldesons vacation spot? 🤔 bc remember the other son knew about the area and thought he had a key but didn't and was also familiar with the property. I thought it happened at the haldersons vacation spot
Those comments are from actual racists! Jump to the fact they aren’t English speaking Americans. That must be why they are uncomfortable. Surely it’s not the fact they are at a murder trial !!!
Obviously the woman isn’t that bright. She’s mentally paralyzed. It’s actually giving her more credit than she’s due to instead say she needs an interpreter.
@@JackPeloquin i dont think these people understand sitting across from a guy you thought you knew, a guy that was with your daughter and having to testify about him being a murderer. I cant imagine all the thoughts racing through her head as you got a guy, as nice as he is, asking you about events that are now foggy notions.
I hope that Dulce and Cresent have a belief system that involves some kind of spiritual or emotional cleansing process they can use to reclaim their peaceful farm. It sounds like such a lovely place, and they both seem like such sweet and gentle ladies.
Dunno how much I believe in that stuff. But I do believe in ghosts. Only because I’ve physically seen them. And I’m atheist. Go figure. I think there’s got to be a scientific explanation to it though
It is really quite sad that this evil, heinous, manipulative coward has left so much hurt and pain behind for the people involved...the people I've seen on the stand testifying are all very sweet good people to their core. The exact opposite of what the accused is.
I hope "Evil Lives Here" can get the brother on the show after this trial is over. I'd bet he's spent everyday looking for signs that he missed when he was growing up.
I have watch hundreds of trials and I never remember a trial when the defense answers the question "do you want to cross examine" and the Defense attorney says "No"???? to every single witness!
I bet all parties involved wished that Chandler had been "doing drugs" back there in the woods, rather than what was eventually discovered. Just awful... trusting people being used for horrific acts.
Exactly right.. like doing drugs is the worst thing. This boy didn’t even touch drugs as far as we know but an evil manipulative liar who committed a double murder on two ppl who loved him
What the literal F. Happened here. He seems to have had great parents. A great family. Great support system of family friends and neighbors that TRULY cared and were genuine. The debauchery of this man. It's diabolical. I can't understand it. The lengths he went to lie to EVERYONE. And the lengths he went in carrying out these lies for years. I just can't.
Sometimes when parents are extra kind and forgiving, kids can get a sense that they could get away with anything. I don't know if it's the case here, reminds me of Casey Anthony.
Bless this mamas heart. You can tell she was so nervous and just so upset. My heart just aches for her and Kat (her daughter) when they find out the guy who was dating her daughter or the guy that she was around turned to be a murderer. She is just breaking my heart with her nerves and sadness.
The incredibly talented prosecutor Brown could pass for a Stephen Baldwin look-a-like. If only every victim had such an amazing crew for justice. Just the fact that the county paid for a deputy to guard the crime scene for so long shows much more dedication than many other victims receive.
A sweet Mexican mother in law, so difficult to find her type, yet the psycho managed to drag her through the mudd. I feel so sorry about all this nice sweet people around him.
Think about what may haven’t happened if Cres and Dulce investigated a little more when they drove out by his car. Like if they caught him dumping his dads remains, what would have happened to them? So crazy. Thank God she was irritated and wanted to back to the pool instead of looking around for him.
I was thinking that when Dulce decided to go to farm upon learning he drove there, she save her girlfriend’s life, because if she was not there Cress would’ ve gone looking for him in the woods.
@@maga2042 I hadn't even thought of this, but you are correct. Dulce likely saved her life. Actually, they both are lucky to be alive. If they had went looking for him in the woods, he would have made sure that was their last day alive.

She got me when they asked her to describe her backyard, and she described it so beautifully. It was her place of peace, and Chandler went over there, took advantage of her kindness, and defiled her safe haven with horrific atrocities. How can you not unsee it ?
Yeah. That got me too.
Right! Smh
Me too, What a Lovely Lady...SO SAD
I don’t think you can, so sad, a monster.
Right, like why dump his dad stump there??
Just the amount of support that Chandler had is incredible. Every witness so far had his wellbeing in mind, it's heartbreaking that he was duping every one of them
So true. Not only those close to him but even his neighbors and complete strangers, pretty much everyone in this case, showed him kindness when he absolutely didn't deserve it.
typical sociopath. they lie and trick everyone around them and take advantage of everything and everyone they can. I would love to have had 1 ounce of the support this pod had
all those lies just caught up and he knew his dad would find out, his girlfriend will break up with him and everyone who "thought' they knew him, really didnt. So killing his parents wasnt just based off him finding out, but others around him too...Its sad situation. Being a bum playing video games. He could had gotten a job and been honest right after telling his parents that he flunked out. It was too hard....instead he lead everyone on...lie after lie after lie...and to sit there and drag these people through court is sad..now you want to appeal?. he hired a new attorney...he knew he killed them..hes seen in that area. hes seen in the home with the fireplace burning in his home where he left a piece of skull behind...its his rifle..i mean, you cant get anymore guilty.
Well, you know what they say about lies. It's best to be honest from the start instead of having to keep lying to make more to cover the first one. Unfortunately, this guy took it too far
He was quite the con artist! Pretty sad for everyone around him!
Dear God. Can you imagine your daughter sleeping in the same bed as a guy who had just murdered and dismembered his own parents. This is quite literally a nightmare for this poor woman.
Unless the daughter knew... She was in the house the day he burned his parents remains in the fireplace. Neighbors 3 houses down could smell that unmistakable smell, but she, who was in the house right next to the fireplace, couldn't? Also, she lied about buying ice. Also, she offered to help Chandler load the car to take to the dump, but when questioned about it, she claims she can't remember what he was loading into the car. Very convenient for her. Also, when the police picked her up to talk to her about the missing parents, at which point everyone thought they were just missing, she was crying hysterically and throwing up. That's bizarre to say the least. And lots of other details, important details that she claims she couldn't remember in her testimony. Very convenient to say the least.
The prosecutor himself stated in closing arguments that Cat wasn’t involved in any way. It’s common for people to blame women in these cases, even women who have been abducted or were used as unwitting accomplices, and call them complicit even with absolutely no evidence. It’s base libel, and it further victimizes people who will be affected by violent crime for the rest of their lives. Shameful.
Where on earth did you get all that you just said? She wasn't there that day while he was burning them... I'm not even going to dispute what I know you said is BS so where did you get your info.? Comprehension must be one of your weak points. You think because you type a bunch of crap that isn't true that people will just believe you? And her throwing up was while she was in the other room talking to detectives about how he had been acting lately and she threw up because she found out what he did. They told her what he did. The prosecutor actually said that she was not only vomiting information for them, she was really vomiting. She showed the screen shot of his being out where he claimed to her that he was getting CBD but he was actually dumping some of his mom. She asked him what the smell was.. so where on earth did you hear otherwise? I know I'm likely not going to get a reply from you with an answer that makes sense. Actually it will likely be crickets.
And when they picked them up for questioning LE DID know all about what he had done. They had found the remains he dumped on the farm. Again, where did you hear all the BS you are saying? Your comprehension skills need serious work.
It did seem she was not disclosing
Info
But for fear to incriminate herself but she innocent
You could tell she had difficulty with understanding the boyfriend strangeness
She didn’t have any male guidance her life.. that is certain
This kid had everything going for him. Loving parents, loving in-laws, loving girlfriend. All he needed to do is to get on his own feet and start a life with his GF. That's all...
He never struggled in his life with anything. I....speechless.
Exactly 💯. Was handed everything his whole life. Lived in a beautiful home with both parents in a very nice, crime free neighborhood. He took everything for granted & acted as if everything was owed 2 him. Didn't even want 2 go 2 school or god forbid obtain employment. It's unbelievable what a narcissist his is.
It's completely delusional how he thought that was the right outcome for him completely lying and just wanting to be a bum apparently. Its so unimaginable and to think he would get away is just completely asinine i will never understand but this case was very disturbing yet riveting.
Ya just a normal job, he was even allowed to live at Kats

The Latino community doesn't look favorably upon homosexual relationships. They are very traditional and are largely Catholic and very devout, compared to the average American. Having been outed in such a public way was undoubtedly very humiliating for her. She was living a nice quiet life with Cress, and both of these women have been thrown into this web of lies. Chandler used them, like he used his girlfriend and especially his parents. He is a taker and a faker. He is a liar and a coward. He is allegedly a murderer.

I would say that the prosecutor and the judges - in general - seems like more compassionate than their counterparts in the 90's. I don't like political correctness buuuut in favor of the PC is that people are more compassionate and gente, in the legal ⚖ field, than before. 😊

38:25 Her long pause here absolutely broke my heart. The things Chandler put her through, being made to feel dirty when he came into the pool despite her and her partner not wanting him there to see her topless. He shattered her idyllic, peaceful view of her home, her sanctuary, because that wretched man thought nothing of exploiting their kindness and dumping his parents on her property. I'd bet dollars to donuts that Chandler was going to try and pin the murders on her, Kris, or Cat because of that.
You said it better than I did, so I deleted my newer comment.
It seems to me, that her children were growing up well, she found her love and paradise. And this monster just ruined it. Awful. My heart is broken for her.
Well n the back of the squad car he shouted to the driver in an angry tone “why isn’t my girlfriend here too “ almost implicating her.
I think he just didn't think they'd look there. He did not seem to bright with his google searches and how he acted after. How awful he was Washing their blood off of himself with them in the pool..so gross and disrespectful
Ruined their relationship too
@@Cinder_311 I know that’s disgusting. They would have to drain the whole pool for hygiene reasons.
I'm sure it's terrifying knowing that a man who was capable of something so horrific was dating her daughter for 2 years, and frequently staying at their house.
🤢
“Oh no, I’d never do drugs or bring them to your home… but I’ll bring dismembered body parts instead”…. This kid is a complete monster.
Soooo TRUE...and I'm an Ashley as well 😆 This was my thought exactly. No, definitely not any drugs....just horrific, heinous acts that are the very things of most peoples worst nightmare 🤔
I thought the same! His dad's torso was OK?
So many ppl who think drugs are so so bad and I not doing them makes me better than you.. are capable of very heartless and cold things
I think calling him a monster is an understatement when we’re talking about that POS
Astute observation

You can tell he went that extra mile to make witnesses feel comfortable, totally sympathetic of how traumatising this all is to them.

@Merry Nothing agreed, probably started as a small lie or failure to do something and it grew and grew. This poor lady made a poor witness. Chandler has all the signs of Factitious Disorder.
He even disposed of his parents' bodies on the farm that she loved so much and described as a "paradise". He violated that paradise. His evil tainted it, just as he left everyone and everything in his path devastated. It's sickening, and I feel really bad for everyone around him.

Dulce: "No, I was uncomfortable because I told Chandler not to get in the pool and he ignored me and got in anyway." (Then proceeded to wash his murdered father's blood and bile off in the pool with us).
Right
*exactly* perfectly written. I just can’t image the horror when they look back on everything
@@Dearest_orugitas I about threw up when she started making those washing gestures. I thought there was no way, NO WAY he could be that much of a sick monster that he'd wash himself off right in front of them while they were still in the pool with him. But he did.
Fn right. Like unimaginable.
Omg time stamp please !
After hearing how loving and supportive Dulce was on the phone with Chandler and how he told her that he loved her during a jail call when she called him in jail before the trial, she must have felt really duped and thankful that her daughter is safely away from him after all the lies he told her were exposed during the trial. Such a sweet lady.
YES!! He kept his lies up throughout every phone call, trying to convince them everything would be ok and he was innocent. It was so sad hearing those calls knowing what he had done and them still holding onto hope. 😢
@@pj89-96 it wasn't a hope other than keep us out of your situation, because she gave a lot of pieces of information that helped in getting him convicted. Like, he could easily tell the prescution that it was Cat's idea to kill his parents and that she helped him in cleaning the crime scene, and everyone would like to believe him.. she was there just 2 days after the murder and she bought him ice, and he even buried the remains of his father in her mother's finacee's farm after Cat gave him the keys to go there!

I just said pretty much the same thing. Chandler cared about no one, but Chandler. He had no qualms about dragging all these people into his depravity and crimes. These women didn’t ask to be involved. Now their lives have been upended and broadcasted to the masses.
I agree! They make the cutest couple!
I swear, I want to reach through my screen and hug this woman.....this was such a frightening experience for her. Bless her.....I think her answers would have been articulated a little better if the court had provided a translator for her. I think this would have made her experience a little less stressful. All in all, she did the best she could and gave very emotional testimony that was real and raw. Love this woman; Bless her heart.
I think her command of the English language is fine. In my humble opinion, I believe she’s so nervous and probably still in shock over knowing her place of peace has been forever ruined is affecting her ability to articulate her thoughts. I’d probably be the same way. Poor lady.
Not always, the translator will interpret what the person is trying to say and sometimes it is not accurate
@@LeticiaRODRIGUEZ-lx8om Yep
Bless her indeed. She is so sweet, and I also wanted to hug her, especially when she spoke about what the farm looks like.

What a sweet woman she referred to herself as two grannies on the lawn mower. I’m so sorry that her family and daughter had to cross paths with this despicable human
her and her daughter Cat were talking with Chandler in November Cat was putting money on his phone card in jail so he could call her whenever he could. in one call Cat talks about not going to see a movie until he gets out because she wanted to watch it with him. the mother was just as bad disgusting plans for what he could do when he got out. considering what they must have known at that point they both sounded delusional. they talked to him on thanksgiving and had a pity party on the call because the jail served sloppy joes for dinner, and he didn't like them. search Chandler Halderson jail calls if interested.
They were in denial. It's not uncommon and many people have had this happen to them when someone they love did something absolutely horrendous. It doesn't make them bad people. Just blind at the moment considering the overwhelming nature of the accusations. If you paid any attention then you'd know they no longer speak to him. For some people, it takes time. Again, it doesn't make them bad people. Just naive and too trusting.
I don't think she was such a sweet woman. How dare she judge Christa as a poor mother, when she'd never even met her.
Not very kindly if you ask me. Plus she and her daughter have many calls while he's in jail inferring he's going to get out and have a celebration of sorts. Even with the evidence in their face, they still feel sorry for this pathetic excuse for a human.

Cat's mother is so caring and sweet. It really would have helped to have a translator for her. Yes, she speaks English well. But she obviously had a lot of anxiety and emotion (very understandably). So even though she speaks and understands English well, it's still her 2nd language and so it just adds another layer on top of her anxiety and fear to have to filter everything she says through English. Being able to speak in her native tongue would have just taken off a bit of pressure I think. I can't believe how many wonderful and caring people Chandler was surrounded by. How could he do this to all of them?
I agree. I felt so bad. She had to spend so much time finding her words.
Agreed. She should have had a translator. When I am stressed my extra languages flee and I have a hard time finding words.
Im sure they offered to avoid any problems later on. She may have denied needing a translator
Her name (Dulce) actually suits her 💝
Oh my is this lady sweet. These poor people died so tragically, but watching this trial its obvious that while they were walking this earth they were surrounded by some pretty amazing friends and family.
Seriously, his family and his gf's family seem like genially good people. If Chandler would've just admit his lies, ask them for help and just start over in college........
It could've all turn out very differently.
Her little chuckle and smile when she said they were like two grannies on the lawnmower was so cute.... also Im wondering why Cress would have been in the pool without a top on if they were so uncomfortable, and knew Chandler was still somewhere on the property, where he would be able to see them.
Yes that’s true. Maybe she took her top off because they didn’t want him in the pool but he ignored their wishes anyway.
Cause it's her home and thats what she wanted to do.
They didn’t see him- they looked for him because that’s where he said he would be. Since he wasn’t there she felt comfortable doing what she always does in her space
I think Dulce is very modest, but maybe not Cress.

Well her name is dulce. 😊 I agree. She is a lovely human. This whole community is just amazing. It's so sad that someone so vile and evil lived amongst them.
So easily misled and manipulated though, and that's scary.
@@looking4things669 Most of the time, monsters can sniff out and target kind people to take advantage of. It's sick.
@@looking4things669 These were good kind wholesome people. The fact that he was a manipulative sociopath doesn't make them bad people.
How that giant piece of excrement desecrated this lovely couple’s beloved, beautiful paradise is just another layer to this horror.
This lovely couple found their special paradise on earth and extended their warmth to this... monster that made it a graveyard :( I hope they can still find peace there. It is a wonderful piece of property.
She looks so forlorn. Can you imagine your daughter being involved in this horror? He stayed with you, and you trusted him with your child. It would be both confounding and enraging. Like: how could this happen to us?
I'm so glad her daughter is ok at least physically. She would be destroyed if she had lost her daughter.
Thank God her daughter is still alive and not one of his victims.
And her daughter even slept at this creep's house after he had killed his parents (and still had their bodies in that very house). Poor Cat, too... I bet she won't feel safe dating again for years, if ever.
So so sad. I pray she heals from the trauma!
@@amityislandchum She's better off.
So there are THREE lawyers at the defense table.
And still they only come up with crap and nonsense.
They aren't doing anything because he's broke. No 💵 to siphon from him. They are just "there" for show
Idk if they aren’t trying to set him up for a “inadequate defense” mistrial/appeal. It’s awful.
Objection! Uuuuh ok why? lol terrible job
@@MrsMrMoney EXACTLY!! I've thought that all along.
Not much they can do , there is too much damning evidence plus he can’t afford the top of the line attorney. He had to get public defenders.
What a terrible thing to be dragged into the spotlight like this for this person, and for this family. I hope she is able to be at peace in that home again.
I was thinking the same thing. Having a home and property of that size takes dedication. And one must be motivated daily to perform some type of manual labor just to maintain, much less beautify the residence and land. I know from experience, I inherited a “farm” unexpectedly and it is work. So I commend this lady for her hard work and making her place somewhere that exudes pride. And then some young punk comes along and defiles the property and interrupts her peace with such horror bc he didn’t want to confess to his parents that he was lying about his day to day life. Not to mention the strain it placed on her relationship with Dulce. I hope Chandler thinks about her and what he did to her every day of his life.
My heart breaks for this woman, she's so sweet and he took advantage of her and I can't imagine what the daughter is going through after being with this pos for two years and having no idea who he really was. He deceived so many people, including his amazing parents.. it's sickening 😔💔
Dulce and Crescent seem like very sweet people who were ready to enjoy their lives together on the farm. I can't imagine how traumatizing this situation must have been for them..... just knowing that Cat was dating an evil murder was hard enough I'm sure. Just having to testify at court is tough, but in a case like this, to have to relive what was probably some of the scariest days in their lives, must have been tolling. I really hope all the people Chandler impacted are able to find healing.
LOL. I read it differently. Her girlfriend did not respect her enough to cover up in front of her daughter's boyfriend. She really struggled with the embarrassment.
@@mas5867. I took it the same way.. she definitely doesnt agree with cress's lack of modesty 😬What confused me tho was why she got so sad and on the verge of sobbing just mentioning it...?? 😕🤔?? I'd expect a lil annoyed or even some anger but for whatever reason (when testifying in a MURDER trial) the hardest part for dulce to talk about seemed like it was when chandler saw her partner topless..??? 🤨
@@sunshinealice3335 it was the violation. It wasn’t the toplessness - it was that he had just dumped the body. Combined with essentially outing herself on a national and international stage. If you watch carefully, the times she becomes emotional are all tied to how he was interacting with people she loves.
@@mas5867 to it the same.
I have been following all of these trial videos on UA-cam..and find it quite interesting to see an actual trial, as opposed to TV show adaptations. It is often difficult to determine what order the videos should be viewed , so I would like to suggest that you slightly alter you video naming. Eg, day 3 first video as Day 3.1, Day 3 second video as Day3.2. This would be greatly appreciated
Just say thank you and be grateful you can view these videos at all AND for free, instead of telling someone how to make the experience EVEN BETTER for your lazy self.
Or better still, start your own channel, do the work yourself and YOU label them 3.1, 3.2 and get over yourself.
This is what I would greatly appreciate🙄🤦🏻♀️
Eileen I agree with you. I watched the previous video before this and wondered why it had started half way through a testimony. Had no idea that was Cres until she walked in on this video!
@@kathyann8974 your the one that's full of yourself. Their idea was a good one so why don't you sit down and shut up already keyboard commando!!!
@@kathyann8974 They are making money off their channel, and they make more money if they make their videos easier to watch. Therefore they should welcome positive suggestions. The only negative person on this thread is you.
The farm is forever ruined. You can tell Dulce and Cresent adore the farm, but struggle with how it was tainted by this ugly crime.
And how even months after the initial crime they kept finding evidence ie the murder weapon, like a never ending nightmare
sadly, every time they're out in the area he hid his parents bodies they'll think about everything all over again. Years of trauma. Chandler creeping into the pool is eerie.
So im Confused, was it at their farm or at the haldesons vacation spot? 🤔 bc remember the other son knew about the area and thought he had a key but didn't and was also familiar with the property. I thought it happened at the haldersons vacation spot
@@thekaerichtexas the bodies were in two separate locations, I believe.
@@thekaerichtexas no.
so apparently the majority of commenters think that "if you have an accent you must need an interpreter."
am i insane or is that incredibly ignorant?
Those comments are from actual racists! Jump to the fact they aren’t English speaking Americans. That must be why they are uncomfortable. Surely it’s not the fact they are at a murder trial !!!
Obviously the woman isn’t that bright. She’s mentally paralyzed. It’s actually giving her more credit than she’s due to instead say she needs an interpreter.
@@JackPeloquin Oh of course…….. racists. 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
@@angelwings7930 obviously you arent that bright. :)
@@JackPeloquin i dont think these people understand sitting across from a guy you thought you knew, a guy that was with your daughter and having to testify about him being a murderer. I cant imagine all the thoughts racing through her head as you got a guy, as nice as he is, asking you about events that are now foggy notions.
"It was allll legal nonsense" loved that part
He won’t bring drugs but he’ll bring a dismembered body.
I hope that Dulce and Cresent have a belief system that involves some kind of spiritual or emotional cleansing process they can use to reclaim their peaceful farm. It sounds like such a lovely place, and they both seem like such sweet and gentle ladies.
Dunno how much I believe in that stuff. But I do believe in ghosts. Only because I’ve physically seen them. And I’m atheist. Go figure. I think there’s got to be a scientific explanation to it though
oh my god...watching her truly breaks my heart. you can tell what a kind and caring person she is..so hard to watch
It is really quite sad that this evil, heinous, manipulative coward has left so much hurt and pain behind for the people involved...the people I've seen on the stand testifying are all very sweet good people to their core. The exact opposite of what the accused is.
I hope "Evil Lives Here" can get the brother on the show after this trial is over. I'd bet he's spent everyday looking for signs that he missed when he was growing up.
Was totally thinking this.
I thought about that too.ive been watching it for days now..evil lives here.i cld watch that half of my day
Perfect idea. That is an amazing show-one of my all time favs
Chandler gave his brother a bullet for his birthday ! Lots of symbolism! I think he hated him because he was successful and engaged. Tragic story!
I have watch hundreds of trials and I never remember a trial when the defense answers the question "do you want to cross examine" and the Defense attorney says "No"???? to every single witness!
Have u seen the Joel guy jr trial. His defense asks no questions.
This judge is so personable!!!
I bet all parties involved wished that Chandler had been "doing drugs" back there in the woods, rather than what was eventually discovered. Just awful... trusting people being used for horrific acts.
Exactly right.. like doing drugs is the worst thing. This boy didn’t even touch drugs as far as we know but an evil manipulative liar who committed a double murder on two ppl who loved him
My god I want to hug the Mom😥 She seems so hurt and scared😥
Such a sweet lady! 😀
Yes, she’s an absolute darling, I feel for her.
I would be terrified to have to testify as a witness in a murder trial, especially in a second language. What a strong woman!
She’s a “dulce” lady. Very sweet
What the literal F. Happened here. He seems to have had great parents. A great family. Great support system of family friends and neighbors that TRULY cared and were genuine. The debauchery of this man. It's diabolical. I can't understand it. The lengths he went to lie to EVERYONE. And the lengths he went in carrying out these lies for years. I just can't.
Sometimes when parents are extra kind and forgiving, kids can get a sense that they could get away with anything. I don't know if it's the case here, reminds me of Casey Anthony.
If you do research on kids that kill their parents. They usually were kind and caring parents.
@@p.sherman3158 it's so crazy how he weaves truth with lies to create his own reality.
Right, it’s unthinkable to us normal people…😔
I realize thats an aerial shot of the property , but that pool looks like a jacuzzi.
Bless this mamas heart. You can tell she was so nervous and just so upset. My heart just aches for her and Kat (her daughter) when they find out the guy who was dating her daughter or the guy that she was around turned to be a murderer. She is just breaking my heart with her nerves and sadness.
This judge was amazing, he has definitely found his calling in life!
I am trying to find one aspect of this man's life he didn't lie about.
That he has Brain damage
Good luck. I hope you have a few years set aside to find it. Lol
She seems so sweet and kind. To think that wretched man thought nothing of exploiting her kindness, money, and property, makes me sick
The incredibly talented prosecutor Brown could pass for a Stephen Baldwin look-a-like. If only every victim had such an amazing crew for justice. Just the fact that the county paid for a deputy to guard the crime scene for so long shows much more dedication than many other victims receive.
Can Dulce be my mom? I really think she is just the sweetest
I feel for this woman being up there on the stand. Sweet woman.
A sweet Mexican mother in law, so difficult to find her type, yet the psycho managed to drag her through the mudd. I feel so sorry about all this nice sweet people around him.
She's Filipino you burk
Think about what may haven’t happened if Cres and Dulce investigated a little more when they drove out by his car. Like if they caught him dumping his dads remains, what would have happened to them? So crazy. Thank God she was irritated and wanted to back to the pool instead of looking around for him.
I was thinking that when Dulce decided to go to farm upon learning he drove there, she save her girlfriend’s life, because if she was not there Cress would’ ve gone looking for him in the woods.
@@maga2042 I hadn't even thought of this, but you are correct. Dulce likely saved her life. Actually, they both are lucky to be alive. If they had went looking for him in the woods, he would have made sure that was their last day alive.
@@maga2042 are they girlfriends or lesbians? Just curious.
@@FoodieBeautyStan they are a couple.
It’s interesting to have the two perspectives of both Cress & Dolce. Cress is so direct and straightforward & Dolce is so timid. Two very different ways of communicating the same information.
Please give her an interpreter if she gets called again, she deserves it, and the case deserves it. Her daughter deserves it, and the victims too.
While I respect your point I think the emotional impact of her testimony is lost when it’s filtered through an interpreter.
I couldn’t agree more or lets wait on Christmas, gee whiz!!
Exactly,she could've understood the questions a lil bit better ànd could've responded(expressed herself)how she really wanted
Can they have an interpreter? That would cause issues of the interpreter’s accuracy and disconnect in relating her words to her body language.
She was most likely offered and declined. She was perfect 👌 even considering the circumstances. Prayers to her, daughter and her family.
