I think the only reason Carlos knew what was going on is because Helen had spoken to him briefly after Megan killed their mom. Helen was probably able to convince her sister, who she’s very close to, that she would help her cover it up. While Megan went to get her clothes changed and what not, Helen thought she had a minute to call (the person you would want to call the most) for council…Carlos, so she went into to the bathroom where Megan wouldn’t hear her and told him the details. That’s why she was sitting on the toilet fully clothed- she was on the damn phone. Helen may have hung up abruptly because she thought she heard Megan. Megan had heard her on the phone, stormed in screaming with the rifle pointed at her, Helen immediately went into a defensive squatting position with her head down to protect her face and her sister shot her through the top of her head. Carlos probably kept trying to call her back after that and couldn’t get her. After a while he realized he had to just say what was really going on because the damn police wouldn’t take him seriously and at that point he knew his gf may have been shot too.
Good point! 👉 The question is how long between the two deaths. Meagan is obviously a liar. Obviously Carlos had been very close to Helen. Yeah I think Carlos is the strongest evidence in this case. He knows what is happening and that's why he called police. Maybe Helen didn't think of calling or obviously went up to the washroom to get away from her sister at the scariest moment of knowing her mom has just been killed.

Truth doesn't matter to an emotionally based thinker. Because truth convicts & hurts their feelings & only their selfish feelings matter to them. That's why they lie & use their own version of subjective truth & reject absolute truth that convicts their feelings & requires them to discipline & control their feelings. They just reject truth & love their lie that they say is true, although it isn't. Same, self serving, emotionally based thinking used by every criminal & the non criminals that use dysfunctional behaviors to enable them, defend them & excuse lying & crimes.

It's real easy when your victim is dead after the fact! She had no idea that the bank might call Pam to verify the transaction, on their own! She thought she had the bank fooled!
Bcs she either thought her mom would have forgiven her and in the meantime the house would have been bought or she knew she would have killed her mother the moment she knew.
Moms usually forgive so much, even when it's clearly wrong to do so. You see it all the time with spoiled brats breaking the law and having their parents bail them out over and over.
Ikr lol. When Chris Van Sant asked her questions, he was sarcastic, and i could see it on her face that she knew he wasn't believing her "i just so happened upon all this big information" in the "one spot i was looking in".
Coincidences do happen. OR, maybe it looked out of place? The decision to pull out that one, would make sense if it were the only one slanted or out of place.
The logic and planning were fantastic in this case. And Julia's sixth sense to open THAT photo album, and then photograph the bank statements, brilliant. Both of them are what you hope a detective would be if you need help.
Right? As a regular person ok you want to believe your friend. However long term employment with the justice department and you totally disregard all the evidence?
All humaity are affected unfortunately by the sins they committed themselves imagine the weight that Jesus christ suffered trying to carry such evil on his body and still say it is finished he came to end all evil n everyone still denies him
I'm willing to bet that the reason Helen didn't run for her life or call 911, was because after the mom was dead, there was a debate where Megan tried to convince Helen to help her cover it up. When Helen told her bf, all bets were off. Megan checked both the mom's phone and saw that the bank called, and saw that Helen contacted her bf. I bet Helen never thought she was in any danger from her sister, but maybe she was hiding in the bathroom when she told her bf, and got busted. Too bad she didn't call 911.
Yep.... I think you are absolutely correct. Megan was trying to get Helen on board with a cover-up of sorts. I also wondered why Helen didn't call 911 right away and instead called Carlos...🤔... only thing I can think of is she (Helen) was probably in shock. She HAD to have been in shock, no....? That would explain why she wasn't thinking clearly. Also she probably didn't think she was in danger from Megan. Clearly she was very wrong...:sigh:😢 Smh.
In the beginning, I thought they might have been in on it together. Then Megan betrayed her. But I do think she was hiding in the bathroom like you said.
Yes, I think Helen was hiding in the bathroom. I don't understand why bfriend didn't call 911 and when he did, why did he not tell them straight away what he knew 🤔
I wonder if they were in on it together, then the surviving sister thought all of the money was better than half. Both of these daughters seemed like trouble.Their poor mom.
The killer’s friend - someone who works for the Justice Department - “should” know that the burden of proof is beyond REASONABLE doubt, not (as she stated) “beyond the shadow of a doubt.”
She pulled the trigger with her toe??!! That's ridiculous!! RIP Pam and Helen, such a heartbreaking case, with our thoughts to the family and friends who are grieving 💜
There's been a lot of people who have actually killed themselves that way, but the entry wound was either to the face or under the chin, not to the back of the head. That makes the story completely unbelievable
Law enforcement should be ashamed of themselves for DISREGARDING CARLOS! He tried and tried to tell 911 to help! I hope those 911 operators are all fired by now.
In my case I was jealous because mom did spoil my other siblings and nothing really for me, but I got over it and when mom died all went nuts because they're gravy train dried up and myself said uh oh with the other exception my little brother wanted no part of it as soon as he could get bailed by marrying and eventually moved away. I still have issues with my little sister s kid's they do me as the one who birthed me I made some bad decisions and now trying to correct them.
@@bowlchamps37 So, what do you think the motive was then? Most murders that involve family members are crimes of passion ( jealously, envy, revenge etc). Helen was the baby of the family, beautiful, sweet- mom was buying her a house……
How did the gun get back between her legs after she shot herself? Ridiculous. She may have been sitting on the toilet crying when she was shot in the head straight down to the neck.
Two of my brothers have threatened me repeatedly...I've tried to find protection, but no one wants to believe the truthteller. Ignorance kills, willful ignorance murders; people around the family don't want to " get involved", but silence is not neutral. My birth came ten years after my brothers (like Helen came much later than Heather and Megan). The first children sometimes have much leaner times, "accidents", as I was called, have less time from the parents, but, often, more money - and that can cause jealousy.
The Mom's greed too or perhaps her extreme self focus. VP at Lockheed? I'm sorry but you can't raise children properly with a bit of "quality time." Children, young children especially, need a lot of time with a parent for normal personality development. Even if you sleep 5 hrs/night, manage your time extremely well and have help, there's only so many hours in a day.
I think Helen was just trying to say goodbye, or try to get help without calling for it because her psychotic sister was holding her hostage. She is getting far too much blame.
Not from me, its disgusting that she was in anyway shaded for what she did. She knew her sister wasnt going to let her live. She was saying goodbye to her bf and trusting him to solve the case. She didnt get a chance to say goodbye, Helen took her phone off her, placed it on the bathroom counter, and shot her. She wiped the phone down because it had her prints on it, and possibly blood. What she didnt get was that a wiped down phone meant that Helen was not the killer.
@@392racer The comments from other people, like they think they know how to solve the crime after its already been solved is hilarious. So many comments here with 'This is what happened', like they're Columbo or something. All their theories involve Carlos and Helen being complicit. Thank goodness theyre not cops, the amount of innocent people who would be in jail.
The jury got it right. Helen couldn’t possibly shoot herself at the TOP OF HER HEAD and then place the gun back down between her legs!!! Impossible. My theory is that Mother Pamela confronted Megan over the wire transfer attempted theft, and caused a huge fight that led to Megan killing her mother. Helen knew Megan had killed her mother, and they spent that mystery 2 hours discussing what just happened and what to say or do about it, this is when & how Helen managed to call & tell her boyfriend Carlos about Megan killing her Mom. Then while Helen is crying in the bathroom over this horrible drama, her sister went into the bathroom and shot her poor innocent sister in the head in silence her and then stage the scene. Horrible betrayal.
This makes a lot of sense. Helen could've been scared, but I still would have attempted 911. I mean, come on. But it definitely explains Carlos' insistence that something was wrong (he knew but only fessed up in later calls to get his way).
We have a family member who is extremely well off and worked their whole lives to be so…one son was bought a beautiful home and the other is still being constructed. Both sons have never held down a job for longer than 6 months and the other still doesn’t work.. 🤷♀️ both have been arrested numerous times.. I can not fathom having a beautiful new home gifted to me..
There’s always that naive friend! Until it’s a hung jury and she comes and lives with you and murders YOU and your family for your money, your husband or both! Unreal. 🤦🏼♂️
My take is Megan killed her mother when confronted with the the attempt to fraudulently transfer funds from Mom‘s bank account. Helen witnessed or heard the gun shots. Megan pleaded with Helen not to call 911. In a state of shock, confusion & fear, she reached out to her boyfriend and confidante and perhaps asked him to call 911 or may have simply called him for support after such a traumatic event. At some point Megan realized that Helen was not onboard with covering up for her and for that reason decided to end her. Either Helen told her outright that she has to call 911 or Megan just didn’t trust that Helen would cover for her. SAD and horrific!
Absolutely! The daughter needed 400k.. mom says no. Bank calls mom and says... did you request a wire transfer for 400k? Mom says, "Hell no!"... you've got to imagine mom hung up the phone and went straight to her daughter to confront her. That was the catalyst.... for that days events.
Yes, and just imagine how frightening it would be to walk around in the house with someone who killed your mom and you’re trying to avoid being killed yourself.
Helen never had the chance, she was already dead. That's why her phone was wiped clean. It was megan all along pretending not only to be her mother, but Helen as well.
It’s so horrible what money can make a person do. It was so fishy that the day before Megan tried to pull out $400,000 of money from her own mother and posed as her!!!! That’s such a sick thing to do. Honestly a red flag from the beginning. I feel so sorry for this family. I hope Pam and Helen may rest in peace
I lean toward it being premeditated - I find the idea the gun needed to be 'stored' at Pam's house odd, Meghan was also eaten up with jealousy & envy of Helen, especially her close relationship with their mom - she wanted Helen dead, too.
"Just blame me, just blame me so my family has peace" LOL That was so kind of Megan, to throw herself on the sword just to give her family peace. What kind of sister would do that? One that's guilty?
Thank goodness another jury found her guilty! I bet if she would have just asked her mother for help, her mother would have helped her, but she decided to take her mother and sisters life instead, just absolutely disgusting! My thoughts go out to Pam’s granddaughter, I know it had to have been a very scary situation to be in the house when this woman did this.
I wanted to know if the killer sister had some issues in her life before this happened. Probably, the mom had been financing her all her life and said, no more.
Even if she had asked and her mother said no, there is no justification for the ghastly murders. That girl has no soul, no heart, just a lust for money and things.
Unless Helen was in on it and became collateral damage, I can't imagine the fear she had when her sister stood over her with a rifle on her head (but no defensive wounds...weird).
@@PinkGrammarGirl There is NO evidence Helen was in on it. And defensive wounds? really??? how exactly would you have defensive wounds from a gunshot to the head? when there is a large rifle pointed at you, there IS no way to defend yourself.
I am willing to bet, that there was no gun residue on Helens toe but there 100% was gun residue on both Megan‘s hands. The audacity of him to try and say she shot herself with her toe!!!
The motive was there- Helen and money. A sister from hell (I know, because I have one), would be beyond jealous that her mom just didn't give Helen money to buy a house, she had one built for her. Megan had probably approached her mother for the same payout - only to be refused. Megan has a husband. It is his responsibility to support his wife, not her mothers. Its probably what Pam said to her daughter (my speculation). I would look into the relationship between Megan and her husband. Maybe, their marriage was on the rocks and she tried to salvage it by buying a house. I realize they had bought a house through a VA loan, but why hadn't they had done it in the first place? You might argue that it wasn't about a house. It absolutely was about Helen's house, because Megan tried to pin the killing on Carlos- her alleged motive for him killing them. As for Megan's delay in killing Helen, she probably couldn't get to her. Helen probably locked herself in her bathroom as she called Carlos and it took Megan hours to coax Helen to open the door. But there is another why...Why didn't Helen fight back against her sister!
How stupid. With her toe? How dumb to they think people are??? How did she stay up right? How did the rifle not fall over and get human remains and / or blood on it? This is why people hate defense attorneys
Just what I thought.. also I'm not an expert but surely there must have been some way to rule that out by finding out if there was gunshot residue on her feet/socks or pants?
You should not hate defense attorneys for that. It´s THEIR JOB to make up scenarios so the state can disprove them and send the guilty behind bars. The DAs did their job, you cannot blame them.
You can tell from the photos Helen had such an open and kind face! I feel so sorry for both her and her mother. I think Megan projected her failed bid to get money off her mother to finance her own house by twisting the story and saying it was Helen who wasn't getting a house. I think Pam was still going to build Helen a house but wouldn't give any money to Megan and this pushed over the edge. That's why she killed them both. I'm so so happy she was found guilty!
I think she knew what was going on. Not even trying to call 911 and telling BF not to call? Helen wanted some of that money but forgot her sister has no value for life
This case blew me away, because it's just impossible to imagine someone doing this to their mother and sister! Unbelievable. Disgusting. Sad. I hope this criminal gets what she deserves, but it won't be here on earth.
I always have a deep hatred for the friends of the murderer who claim they didn’t do it after there’s evidence saying otherwise. It’s kinda strange behiavor
It always gets me how delusional some of the friends interviewed can be "nope she didnt do it no way no how she loved animals" wtf?! You can still love her and be her friend and accept that she is guilty.
I was saying that to myself. There are people who love animals more than humans. Just because one loves animals doesnt mean they love humans. In this case, clearly that wasnt the case.
All the possible reasons why Helen didnt call the police: - To protect her niece - To protect her sister - Being bribed by the sister Megan that she will share the money but then Megan changed her mind and shot her - To protect herself. Acting like she's on her sister's side but Megan found out she called her boyfriend, so killed her.
Yeah, but you have to be careful because media will always release photos that show them in the most guilty light possible. Death stares, evil eyes, etc. Don't get me wrong... this girl is guilty as sin, but it does happen.
48 shouldnt have given even this ammount of time for the killers friend. What a delusional, and extremely disrespectfull person. "My friend, who tried to rob her mother, and betrayd her whole familys trust doing so, my friend who didnt call 911 after her family was murdered and staid innthe house, and who lied to the police, didnt do it. The young woman who got her brains blown out did it and killed her mother too" ...I know what this womans kryptonite is.

It really disgusts me how the defense will go to any lengths to save only their client: incriminate innocent people, soil the memory of the victims, insult the intelligence of the jury, as long as their guilty client at least gets a few years knocked off their sentence.
I think a law should be made by the court system that a juror is responsible for their misconduct and should be arrested for the misconduct that is the reason for a mistrial and cost for a new trial and I will guarantee that all the jurors are going to get the message to pay attention to the rules of the court or pay a penalty

I don't think Megan's friend really knows what her friend is capable of I knew plenty of people that were nice and had lots of friends and also hated their family
Me too. They usually speak bad about the victim when they're responsible.
@@PinkGrammarGirl In an above comment you implied that Helen, a DEAD GIRL was in on it with Carlos. Make up your mind
For me it was her saying that her mother and sister "were gone".
Megan's friend is blinded by the gunshot residue on both her hands is amazing
Love is blind. She obviously wasn’t “just a friend”.
also wants a piece of that 400K
Meghan’s friend is crazy for thinking that her murderer friend was going to be found not guilty.
😡😡
Cognitive bias. She's delusional.
How does she think she's going to get away from stealing $400,000 from her mother? She's guilty as Hell.
It's real easy when your victim is dead after the fact! She had no idea that the bank might call Pam to verify the transaction, on their own! She thought she had the bank fooled!
If they transferred it, wouldn't her mom notice? Killers are idiots who think in the now and never think just 5 minutes into the future.
Bcs she either thought her mom would have forgiven her and in the meantime the house would have been bought or she knew she would have killed her mother the moment she knew.
They were banking on some dimbass juour to go "just because she stealed, doesn't mean she killed."
Moms usually forgive so much, even when it's clearly wrong to do so. You see it all the time with spoiled brats breaking the law and having their parents bail them out over and over.
The sheer coincidence that the investigator would look in the exact photo album that held the financial docs is mind-blowing.
Well, it looks like she looked at a lot of them.
her name is Sherlock Holmes.
Absolutely 😮
Ikr lol. When Chris Van Sant asked her questions, he was sarcastic, and i could see it on her face that she knew he wasn't believing her "i just so happened upon all this big information" in the "one spot i was looking in".
Coincidences do happen. OR, maybe it looked out of place? The decision to pull out that one, would make sense if it were the only one slanted or out of place.
I cannot stress enough how professional and thorough this detective was! Amazing job!
Nobody on 48 hrs does it like Peter Van Sant. I always look forward to his stories.
And my least fav is the moriarity lady . Sorry , but I always get confused with her . Lol
The lead detective is a smart man, salute to your hard work
The logic and planning were fantastic in this case. And Julia's sixth sense to open THAT photo album, and then photograph the bank statements, brilliant. Both of them are what you hope a detective would be if you need help.
He's top notch
Respectfully, Rebecca is completely delusional and should never work in any justice department field ever. 😂
Right? As a regular person ok you want to believe your friend. However long term employment with the justice department and you totally disregard all the evidence?
Seems like Rebecca has more of a crush than than a desire for justice in this case

@@tonyareeves4431 agreed

Megan's friend who worked at the justice department for 5 years should surely know it's 'reasonable doubt' not 'any doubt'🙄
I’d want to know more about the conversation between the boyfriend and Helen where she told him that the sister killed the Mom.
I hope Helen’s boyfriend is doing ok these days… as well every other person directly affected by this evil!!! 😢

@@reg8297
No not everyone denies Him
I'm willing to bet that the reason Helen didn't run for her life or call 911, was because after the mom was dead, there was a debate where Megan tried to convince Helen to help her cover it up. When Helen told her bf, all bets were off.
Megan checked both the mom's phone and saw that the bank called, and saw that Helen contacted her bf. I bet Helen never thought she was in any danger from her sister, but maybe she was hiding in the bathroom when she told her bf, and got busted. Too bad she didn't call 911.
Yep.... I think you are absolutely correct. Megan was trying to get Helen on board with a cover-up of sorts. I also wondered why Helen didn't call 911 right away and instead called Carlos...🤔... only thing I can think of is she (Helen) was probably in shock. She HAD to have been in shock, no....?
That would explain why she wasn't thinking clearly. Also she probably didn't think she was in danger from Megan. Clearly she was very wrong...:sigh:😢 Smh.
Very good analysis!! I agree 💯👍💯
In the beginning, I thought they might have been in on it together. Then Megan betrayed her. But I do think she was hiding in the bathroom like you said.
Yes, I think Helen was hiding in the bathroom.
I don't understand why bfriend didn't call 911 and when he did, why did he not tell them straight away what he knew 🤔
I wonder if they were in on it together, then the surviving sister thought all of the money was better than half. Both of these daughters seemed like trouble.Their poor mom.
She was found guilty a second time and re-sentenced to 2 life sentences
Meagan’s friend expecting to pick her up and go home???? Are people really THAT dumb ??????
The killer’s friend - someone who works for the Justice Department - “should” know that the burden of proof is beyond REASONABLE doubt, not (as she stated) “beyond the shadow of a doubt.”
We’re they lovers? She was butch. You know butch and fluff. 😊

She pulled the trigger with her toe??!! That's ridiculous!! RIP Pam and Helen, such a heartbreaking case, with our thoughts to the family and friends who are grieving 💜
Thats what im saying, whats wrong with people!? God bless you.
@@Fartboy226 Same to you 🤗
There's been a lot of people who have actually killed themselves that way, but the entry wound was either to the face or under the chin, not to the back of the head. That makes the story completely unbelievable
Also that would mean there would be gun shot residue on her toes which could easily have proven that ridiculous claim.
That 911 operator sounded so bored on the phone like she couldn’t be bothered.
The #1 question is why did Megan bring her rifle to her Mother's house if the intent was not to use it? GUILTY!
Law enforcement should be ashamed of themselves for DISREGARDING CARLOS! He tried and tried to tell 911 to help! I hope those 911 operators are all fired by now.
I agree. That made me sick.
It's not easy to get 911 from another jurisdiction. You have to ask your local 911 to patch you to the other jurisdiction.
Sounds real good! bottom line is that they should always be really trying to help!
The only comfort that I hope Carlos can find, is that the murders were probably over before he even called 911 😢. Poor man.
Why ??! His girlfriend didn't answer
her phone so he calls 911 ?!?
Ridiculous !!
She was jealous her mom was building Helen a house and felt entitled to the $ for her house in West Virginia.
In my case I was jealous because mom did spoil my other siblings and nothing really for me, but I got over it and when mom died all went nuts because they're gravy train dried up and myself said uh oh with the other exception my little brother wanted no part of it as soon as he could get bailed by marrying and eventually moved away. I still have issues with my little sister s kid's they do me as the one who birthed me I made some bad decisions and now trying to correct them.
Plus she was jealous that her sister was beautiful and possibly better person
@@Vertikala-pc5ig We don´t know that.
@@bowlchamps37it’s common with narcissists. They are envious and jealous people.
@@bowlchamps37 So, what do you think the motive was then? Most murders that involve family members are crimes of passion ( jealously, envy, revenge etc). Helen was the baby of the family, beautiful, sweet- mom was buying her a house……
How did the gun get back between her legs after she shot herself? Ridiculous. She may have been sitting on the toilet crying when she was shot in the head straight down to the neck.
It’s too bad that Pam didn’t realize her and Helen’s life was in danger and taken drastic measures to protect themselves 🥺
Cash world over sheer greed.
Two of my brothers have threatened me repeatedly...I've tried to find protection, but no one wants to believe the truthteller. Ignorance kills, willful ignorance murders; people around the family don't want to " get involved", but silence is not neutral. My birth came ten years after my brothers (like Helen came much later than Heather and Megan). The first children sometimes have much leaner times, "accidents", as I was called, have less time from the parents, but, often, more money - and that can cause jealousy.
2 lives destroyed over greed. She killed HER OWN MOM AND SISTER. I can’t fathom.
Not to mention she ruined her little girls life as well.
The Mom's greed too or perhaps her extreme self focus. VP at Lockheed? I'm sorry but you can't raise children properly with a bit of "quality time." Children, young children especially, need a lot of time with a parent for normal personality development. Even if you sleep 5 hrs/night, manage your time extremely well and have help, there's only so many hours in a day.
Crazy how entitled people act when they can’t get what they want. Very scary. I feel so bad for the mother and daughter.
She was found guilty at her second trial in September 2023 and again sentenced to life.
May she rot in prison.
I think Helen was just trying to say goodbye, or try to get help without calling for it because her psychotic sister was holding her hostage. She is getting far too much blame.
Exactly that is what I was thinking
Not from me, its disgusting that she was in anyway shaded for what she did. She knew her sister wasnt going to let her live. She was saying goodbye to her bf and trusting him to solve the case. She didnt get a chance to say goodbye, Helen took her phone off her, placed it on the bathroom counter, and shot her. She wiped the phone down because it had her prints on it, and possibly blood. What she didnt get was that a wiped down phone meant that Helen was not the killer.
@@paulinegallagher7821 yeah, I think she wasn't to blame, that's what I'm saying.
@@392racer The comments from other people, like they think they know how to solve the crime after its already been solved is hilarious. So many comments here with 'This is what happened', like they're Columbo or something. All their theories involve Carlos and Helen being complicit. Thank goodness theyre not cops, the amount of innocent people who would be in jail.
Well done to Detective Brian and his team! Truly sad indeed! RIP Mrs Hargan and daughter Helen.
❤❤❤
The jury got it right. Helen couldn’t possibly shoot herself at the TOP OF HER HEAD and then place the gun back down between her legs!!! Impossible. My theory is that Mother Pamela confronted Megan over the wire transfer attempted theft, and caused a huge fight that led to Megan killing her mother. Helen knew Megan had killed her mother, and they spent that mystery 2 hours discussing what just happened and what to say or do about it, this is when & how Helen managed to call & tell her boyfriend Carlos about Megan killing her Mom. Then while Helen is crying in the bathroom over this horrible drama, her sister went into the bathroom and shot her poor innocent sister in the head in silence her and then stage the scene. Horrible betrayal.
This makes a lot of sense. Helen could've been scared, but I still would have attempted 911. I mean, come on. But it definitely explains Carlos' insistence that something was wrong (he knew but only fessed up in later calls to get his way).
@@PinkGrammarGirl"fessed up?"

There’s always that naive friend! Until it’s a hung jury and she comes and lives with you and murders YOU and your family for your money, your husband or both! Unreal. 🤦🏼♂️
😂😂
My take is Megan killed her mother when confronted with the the attempt to fraudulently transfer funds from Mom‘s bank account. Helen witnessed or heard the gun shots. Megan pleaded with Helen not to call 911. In a state of shock, confusion & fear, she reached out to her boyfriend and confidante and perhaps asked him to call 911 or may have simply called him for support after such a traumatic event. At some point Megan realized that Helen was not onboard with covering up for her and for that reason decided to end her. Either Helen told her outright that she has to call 911 or Megan just didn’t trust that Helen would cover for her. SAD and horrific!
Absolutely! The daughter needed 400k.. mom says no. Bank calls mom and says... did you request a wire transfer for 400k? Mom says, "Hell no!"... you've got to imagine mom hung up the phone and went straight to her daughter to confront her. That was the catalyst.... for that days events.
Yes, and just imagine how frightening it would be to walk around in the house with someone who killed your mom and you’re trying to avoid being killed yourself.
Helen never had the chance, she was already dead. That's why her phone was wiped clean. It was megan all along pretending not only to be her mother, but Helen as well.
It’s so horrible what money can make a person do. It was so fishy that the day before Megan tried to pull out $400,000 of money from her own mother and posed as her!!!! That’s such a sick thing to do. Honestly a red flag from the beginning. I feel so sorry for this family. I hope Pam and Helen may rest in peace
I lean toward it being premeditated - I find the idea the gun needed to be 'stored' at Pam's house odd, Meghan was also eaten up with jealousy & envy of Helen, especially her close relationship with their mom - she wanted Helen dead, too.
My sister absolutely hated me when I was younger. At that time, yes, I would say she could have done something to me and lied about it.
I am so sorry 😢.
@@cookie_dough_hangover it was jealousy. And it’s a terrible thing. It’s all good now. She’s awesome!
@@lrla8657 I am so glad! Jealousy among siblings is common and sometimes parents are to blame.
To say she pulled her trigger with her toe was ridiculous and insulting.
"Just blame me, just blame me so my family has peace" LOL That was so kind of Megan, to throw herself on the sword just to give her family peace. What kind of sister would do that? One that's guilty?
That was so ridiculous. If she was really innocent there’s no way she would say that.
Thank goodness another jury found her guilty! I bet if she would have just asked her mother for help, her mother would have helped her, but she decided to take her mother and sisters life instead, just absolutely disgusting! My thoughts go out to Pam’s granddaughter, I know it had to have been a very scary situation to be in the house when this woman did this.
I wondered if she was jealous that her sister was given a house and she wasn’t?
I wanted to know if the killer sister had some issues in her life before this happened. Probably, the mom had been financing her all her life and said, no more.
She was jealous of her little sister, she hated her mother for having a closer relationship with Helen.
@@theresachung703 That's what I thought too. The mom probably told Megan "no" for whatever reason. But we'll never know.
Even if she had asked and her mother said no, there is no justification for the ghastly murders. That girl has no soul, no heart, just a lust for money and things.
I think the gun powder residue on Megan and the lack of the victim’s fingerprints on the gun tell the whole story!
I hope never to have to call 911 with an urgency but if i do i hope not to get a dispatcher like the one that answered that call
If the cops had respected Carlos they could have saved Helen.
This is one of the worst cases I have seen on here. She was going to let everybody believe, for eternity, that her baby sister killed their mother.
an evil baby sister
@@Jamal-if7wmyou meant an evil big sister
@@BeautyisHerName692

Unless Helen was in on it and became collateral damage, I can't imagine the fear she had when her sister stood over her with a rifle on her head (but no defensive wounds...weird).
@@PinkGrammarGirl There is NO evidence Helen was in on it. And defensive wounds? really??? how exactly would you have defensive wounds from a gunshot to the head? when there is a large rifle pointed at you, there IS no way to defend yourself.

Thanks.
Love of money is the root of all evil. She never needed her mom’s money to buy the house. She killed her family for nothing. I pray for them.
Someone write a book on this case. This is so interesting. Intelligent, rich, mom and daughter, and other daughter a loser. Great story.

@@Username_993 Why isn't sentencing the same day as her conviction day in court?? How about her prison time starts in Jan 2025. smh
I am willing to bet, that there was no gun residue on Helens toe but there 100% was gun residue on both Megan‘s hands. The audacity of him to try and say she shot herself with her toe!!!
The motive was there- Helen and money.
A sister from hell (I know, because I have one), would be beyond jealous that her mom just didn't give Helen money to buy a house, she had one built for her.
Megan had probably approached her mother for the same payout - only to be refused. Megan has a husband. It is his responsibility to support his wife, not her mothers. Its probably what Pam said to her daughter (my speculation).
I would look into the relationship between Megan and her husband. Maybe, their marriage was on the rocks and she tried to salvage it by buying a house.
I realize they had bought a house through a VA loan, but why hadn't they had done it in the first place?
You might argue that it wasn't about a house. It absolutely was about Helen's house, because Megan tried to pin the killing on Carlos- her alleged motive for him killing them.
As for Megan's delay in killing Helen, she probably couldn't get to her. Helen probably locked herself in her bathroom as she called Carlos and it took Megan hours to coax Helen to open the door.
But there is another why...Why didn't Helen fight back against her sister!
How stupid. With her toe? How dumb to they think people are??? How did she stay up right? How did the rifle not fall over and get human remains and / or blood on it? This is why people hate defense attorneys
Just what I thought.. also I'm not an expert but surely there must have been some way to rule that out by finding out if there was gunshot residue on her feet/socks or pants?
Exactly!
Defense attorney should be fired just for thinking they can use toe on trigger excuse.
You should not hate defense attorneys for that. It´s THEIR JOB to make up scenarios so the state can disprove them and send the guilty behind bars. The DAs did their job, you cannot blame them.
@bowlchamps37 I am not hating on the defense attorney. I am hating on his theory that someone would choose suicide by using their toe on the trigger.
You can tell from the photos Helen had such an open and kind face! I feel so sorry for both her and her mother. I think Megan projected her failed bid to get money off her mother to finance her own house by twisting the story and saying it was Helen who wasn't getting a house. I think Pam was still going to build Helen a house but wouldn't give any money to Megan and this pushed over the edge. That's why she killed them both. I'm so so happy she was found guilty!
All of this 🎯🎯🎯
This makes the most sense out of anything I've read in the comment section.
Megan is PURE evil
I agree, ugly, evil jealousy. She was jealous of Helen, and her Mom buying Helen a house tipped her over the edge. Pure evil.
I thought there's was a retrial...I hope she get locked up for life.
Glad to see the bank double check on the wire transfer and make sure it was the correct person
Megan’s voice in the beginning while crying instantly made me say she has a part in this. Without watching further.
Yes, her voice and also how she was quick to insist on how Helen was depressed and angry
I was thinking the same
The first thing out of her mouth when she “found out” was “we just closed on a house my mom bought it for me”.
Always love 48 hours.All of the investigative
Journalists are excellent in their presentation🙏♥️🇺🇸
A sad part is that I think Helen would have defended Megan and maintained Megan's innocence if she didn't witness her sister killing her mother.
I think she knew what was going on. Not even trying to call 911 and telling BF not to call? Helen wanted some of that money but forgot her sister has no value for life
The sixth sense on that detective is INSANE she went right for the hiding spot
This case blew me away, because it's just impossible to imagine someone doing this to their mother and sister! Unbelievable. Disgusting. Sad. I hope this criminal gets what she deserves, but it won't be here on earth.
She’ll get what she deserves in prison 👍🏽
I always have a deep hatred for the friends of the murderer who claim they didn’t do it after there’s evidence saying otherwise.
It’s kinda strange behiavor
exactly. they are just as dangerous.
not strange behavior but suspicious behavior, the killer might have told her about the killing, I am just saying.
It's called cognitive dissonance, and it's rampant. Look at biden voters....
I used to be a chaplain. This isn't unusual. People can't believe an ordinary human could do something so awful.
@@2hot2bstr8official I agree fully.
It always gets me how delusional some of the friends interviewed can be "nope she didnt do it no way no how she loved animals" wtf?! You can still love her and be her friend and accept that she is guilty.
I was saying that to myself. There are people who love animals more than humans. Just because one loves animals doesnt mean they love humans. In this case, clearly that wasnt the case.
She just hasn’t reached that stage of acceptance yet. Sounded like they were lovers in the past. Lots of people treat animals better than humans.
All the possible reasons why Helen didnt call the police:
- To protect her niece
- To protect her sister
- Being bribed by the sister Megan that she will share the money but then Megan changed her mind and shot her
- To protect herself. Acting like she's on her sister's side but Megan found out she called her boyfriend, so killed her.
I agree with your #3 and #4. But I also believe Helen could have been a partner in crime and her sister eventually didn’t trust her and killed her.
I knew it was Megan within 5 mins of watching this. Every single killer has the same look in their eye. A look of cold emptiness.
Yeah, but you have to be careful because media will always release photos that show them in the most guilty light possible. Death stares, evil eyes, etc. Don't get me wrong... this girl is guilty as sin, but it does happen.
48 shouldnt have given even this ammount of time for the killers friend. What a delusional, and extremely disrespectfull person.
"My friend, who tried to rob her mother, and betrayd her whole familys trust doing so, my friend who didnt call 911 after her family was murdered and staid innthe house, and who lied to the police, didnt do it.

How can her friend deny that Megan was the murderer? What would the friend say about the gunshot residue? Not to mention all the other evidence? 🤮
Julia Elliot is a rock star for finding those papers like that, like whats the odds she happens to pull out that exact book they were hidden in? So glad they didnt blame the wrong sister
It really disgusts me how the defense will go to any lengths to save only their client: incriminate innocent people, soil the memory of the victims, insult the intelligence of the jury, as long as their guilty client at least gets a few years knocked off their sentence.
