  • A home invasion in San Juan Capistrano, California, left Brad and Andra Sachs dead, and their eight-year-old son, Landon, paralyzed. Initially, investigators suspected a business-related motive, but attention soon shifted to their son, Ashton Sachs, after his white Prius was seen speeding away from the scene.
    Once a straight-A student with big ambitions, what drove Ashton to commit such a shocking crime? Let’s talk about it.
    What are your thoughts on this unbelievable case?

    I will never understand how any child could kill their own parents. I feel so bad for the son who lost his ability to use his legs. As a new amputee, having many setbacks, I can relate. Greed is the devil. God bless the two survivors. ❤️🙏
    Thank you Amy. Say hello to Chris for me. 😊

    I had a dear friend who went through two failed kidney transplants. I have a hard time believing that Myles is truly doing "great," but I hope all the best for him. I hope his transplant continues to function well and he has every success. I hope the same for Landon.
    I'm amazed that Ashton could be so evil.

      It has nothing to do. When I was a kid I was always playing videogames or in the computer. Even now as an 32 year old I play video games with friends and my partner almost every other day. I didn’t turned out a murderer or bad daughter. I always look out for my family and help them whenever I can. Also, video-games got me into my profession (software engineer).
      My mom actually liked that I was always playing games at home instead of out partying until late at night. She knew I was safe at home.
