A Wisconsin man stands trial for allegedly murdering and dismembering his parents without remorse, and providing false information on their disappearances. Chandler Michael Halderson, 23, faces charges including first-degree intentional homicide. Remains from his father Bart Halderson, 50, and mother Krista Halderson, 53, were found days apart, authorities said.
Defendant Halderson reported his parents missing July 7th, claiming they left their home in the Village of Windsor days before on the 1st. He told WISC-TV at the time that they were going to the village of White Lake, Wisconsin.
“My last message I got from them, they were going to White Lake for the Fourth of July,” he told “There are some festivities that go around there. Better drink prices at the bars. Stuff like that.”
He said that to his knowledge, they were then going to their cabin in Langlade County.
“Along the way, they could’ve stopped many places,” he said. “I wouldn’t know all of them.”
He was allegedly just feeding everyone lies.
Bart’s torso was found in rural Dane County, while remains from Krista were found in Sauk County and property run by the Department of Natural Resources, according to court documents obtained by The Wisconsin State Journal.
Their son had been searching Google for terms like “Body found Wisconsin,” “Woman’s body found in Wisconsin,” “Wisconsin dismembered body found,” and “Dead body found in Wisconsin,” authorities said. Investigators suggested Chandler Halderson used to a visit to property belonging to the partner of his girlfriend’s mother as cover to hide his father’s torso nearby. He had shot Bart Halderson at least once before dismembering him, officials said.
According to investigators, Halderson said after his arrest that “you don’t know the whole story,” and that he “didn’t feel bad about what I did.”

Strangest case I've ever seen. All this because he didn't want to go to school or get a job. Unbelievable.
He didn't want to do anything but mooch off of his parents, think he was smarter than everyone, lie and manipulate people and play video games. Lazy and unmotivated to have a real life. He liked his pretend life because it elevated him to a status he could never reach. More importantly, everyone close to him believed the bs.
That one of the things that bothered me. He just was LAZY & still wanted his parents to pay for everything.
Agreed. Well now he better believe he won’t ever have to get either!
watch joel guy jr thats even worse.
Now the tax payers in Wisconsin have to pay his stay in jail for the rest of his life…
I feel so sorry for his brother. Not only did he lose his mother and father, He lost his whole immediate family that he grew up with. How terrible would that be to find out your brothers a sociopath killer and chopped your parents up? How devastating the whole family must be.
Some ppl arent attached to their fam so we cannot know how his brother feels
Think it's safe to say his brother must have been horrified!
@@blablaruc9414 Issues much?
@@blablaruc9414 true, we shouldn't superimpose our emotions on others assuming they are like us. Anybody who can kill n chop up his parents probably was an evil selfish person to live.with too.
@@blablaruc9414 I think he was attached to his parents comfy middle class home in a nice area, if he was from a poor psycho family he would've ditched home at 16 and never looked back, resulting in no double murder.
And the really sad part of this whole thing is that's it's obvious that his parents really loved him.
He would never have gotten away with it as he left so many clues and even left their bodies on his girlfriends land and went swimming a monster lazy useless and a failure now he will spend the rest of his life locked up i hope they may him work and the worst jobs as he never did work at anything when free,
@@carolegray6835 I believe he left the body and the Target bag to set up his girlfriends family...as if he wasn't despicable enough given his crimes.
@@sharonhoyt2133 I thought the same thing... using a bag with his girlfriend's name on it, leaving both the murder weapon, tools, and the body on her mother's farm... certainly seems like he was trying to set them up to take the fall. Despicable all the way around.
@@sharonhoyt2133 True.
No it's not
The state did an outstanding job with this case. He got what he deserves.
May Bart and Krista Rest In Peace
He will get more of what he deserves when he is sentenced to life without parole.
Great judge, prosecutors, and jury.
May Bart and Krista Rest In Peace now.
Best wishes for Mitchell, family, and friends of this couple.
Hideous tragedy!
I've been so impressed by all of the people in Wisconsin involved in this trial...except for Chandler. I've never been to Wisconsin but the people in this trial seem to be Very good people as well as good at their jobs.
@@sharonhoyt2133 not impressed with the defense attorney to say the very least!!! worst attorney I've ever seen in my life... now I can't say I don't feel sorry for him at all!!! I'm just saying this attorney was horrible!!! Did him absolutely no favors.. might have been better off defending himself
@@rdv217 because you cant defend a guy that is so obviously guilty. He got caught in 4k theres nothing you can do about it tbh
One of the most heart breaking texts was when the mom thanked Chandler for waving “it made my day”. He responded with “okay”.
I missed that part. When was that? I saw where she always sent smiley faces and love you's. How terribly sad how much she loved her boys... and then he, Chandler, ends up killing her, dismembering her, and scattering her remains to the four winds. She won't even get a proper burial like Bart will. How horrible!
@@BeRightBack131 When she went to work on the day he murdered them.
@@Tee1312Jay thank you. I'll look it up. That is so sad.
that got me too :(((
🥺
Prosecution did a great job on the back of an outstanding investigation by the Police. No stone unturned by Dane County Sheriff's office.
I’m actually surprised at how fast the police acted and discovered what happened while he and Cat were at the police department. Cress helped tremendously by calling the police.
uhmm chandler made their jobs very easy
noo... The police did not do outstanding. Catherine is still walking free. They completely failed and gave us the most nonsensical reason as to why Chandler killed his parents. There is way more to the story, but we will never know the truth
@@jleif7736 bull that girl didn’t have anything to do with it.
@@jleif7736 Did you even watch the whole opening statement of the prosecutor? From the locations of text messages, witnesses, testimonies, fake emails chandler used, physical evidence all went over your head?
It is rare IMO, that we find such a humble, calm, respectful, and all-around knowledgeable, and professional judge these days. This judge emanates kindness, truthfulness, fairness, unbiased, respect for everyone in the courtroom, and I really enjoyed watching such a good person do their job in the way they intended to when they decided to take this oath. Judges have a certain absolute power and he did not use his power as a trip. He did his job so unbiased and so kind that it actually made the horrific trial a smidge easier to watch here and there. In a perfect world, every judge should be like this. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Totally agree
Yes he was
Well said. Agreed.
Red.....thank you so much for this comment, and I totally agree.
I agree. It’s been interesting to me to watch the other Wisconsin trial that is going on, and see the difference in the judges and prosecutors. VERY different.
Just had a thought, brother Mitchel who is currently engaged will have no immediate family at his wedding.
That is really sad.
maybe his uncle Barts brother will attend. so sad though
I’m sure the 2 million dollar life insurance policy he received will more than make up for that…
@@macysondheim I personally would rather my family be at my wedding. You can't replace your family with 2 million !
You're pretty shallow me thinks!
@@mazza_razzza Lol I’d take the 2 million without hesitation.
@@macysondheim I'm not sure if you're trolling or not, but for the sake of humanity I hope you are.
Most of us wouldn't want to lose our loved ones for any amount of money.
Congratulations to THE DEDICATED ALL LAW ENFORCEMENT, SPECIAL UNITS, SPECIALISTS, CSI, NEIGHBOURS & SUPPORT STAFF who worked so professionally, tirelessly & diligently to hand the evidence to this Prosecution Team!!! Without their efforts Chandler may still be walking free.
I am impressed beyond measure with the exemplary professionals of Wisconsin Law Enforcement.
Congratulations to the Prosecution team for their brilliant work! 🙏💙🙏💗🙏. Job well done by all!
Absolutely!
Yes, law enforcement, detectives, crime scene investigation, medical personnel, must do their jobs well to give the prosecutors what they need to present a good case.
Judge Hyland is probably the best I’ve ever seen. Very humble, respectful, kind, and professional.
The jury did their jobs under the gruesome circumstances they had to hear and see.
Prayers for Mitchell that he can go on and have a normal and happy life.
Best wishes for family and friends.
Rest In Peace Bart and Krista , you seemed like wonderful people.
Connie G.
Perfectly stated!!!!!!
I feel bad for the jurors. I hope they all have support to get over the things they have seen and heard during this trial
Yes
@@obscurity3027 of course that's true. We all have our comfort zones. I just hope that these jurors can find a way to process what they experienced in a way that keeps them from long term mental health challenges
@@mlee_wood3778 courts should really offer counseling services to jurors.
I think there have been worse things shown to jurors like the paul bernardo tapes
@@coocoo3336 oh yeah that one was horrific. I saw a juror talk about how she had trouble moving on after that trial. I can't imagine hearing and seeing what they had to; but I still feel bad for the jurors in this trial and hope they are OK after having to see what this monster did to his parents.
No big surprise there!! Kudos to the prosecuting team and the jury members! May the remaining family members and friends find the strength to carry on knowing justice has been served! What a horrible HORRIBLE case!
This man is so evil what right did he have to take his parents lives they had looked after him all his life he is a monster I cannot believe it was just because he lied there is more to it which we will never know. He will not get the death penalty instead life in prison and I hope someone gets rid of him he is a useless human being and tax payers will oay for him to have a room and food. He has left his brother without a family and I think that house will not be lived in again as too much happened there, RIP to Bart and Krista how you must have suffered at the hands of your evil son.
@@carolegray6835 amen!!
Aww And The Judge Is Fantastic. Xo
@@victoria859 Yes, he was! What kind of toll does having to listen to these horrific cases ....day in....day out...for your entire career have on a judge? Presiding over the worst of the worst!! Must be quite difficult. God bless him!
@@ismellya There's No Way I'd BeAble to Stay t All Day n Listen To n See All Evidence. Those Poor Jurors Must Have Nightmares All The Time xo
I guess I should be more immune to this kind of thing by now, but I still find it mind blowing that anyone would do such a thing - then think they're gonna get away with it. The guy is certainly a sociopath and should never live in society again.
Its ok not to b imune. Psychos r imune and end up doing smth bad. Feeling is good esp when its sympathy 🤗
and he looks so normal
@@cattycorner8 they always do
I hope we never become immune to this kind of thing.
Crimes against humanity are getting worse and more unbelievable. It’s shocking what extent and extreme people will go through to kill another person or animal. Many crimes against animals are very horrific too. Someone killed 13 farm animals at a farm in California today and it’s beyond belief too. Poor creatures did not stand a chance since they where in their stalls or pens. Chopped up and left just like what this freak did to his parents.
I wish all Judges were like him!
I thought he was great, also. He had a rhythm that kept the courtroom calm. Like a captain on a 777 keeping his passengers from freaking out. That was a horrific case to have to listen to day after day and played on the emotions of everyone. His eyes seemed dead without any emotion. Is he a sociopath?
@@dianafallon1012 I didn't hear any Psychiatrist testimony but I've only been listening for a couple of weeks. His Defense was weak, ACCIDENT? That's unbelievable.
@@dianafallon1012 Even worse than that. He's a Psychopath.
This judge even sounds singsong saying “mutilating a corpse.”
This trial was outstanding. I’m glad that this kid won’t be out on the streets any longer. My heart is with Krista and Barts’ loves.
Ditto. And I love The judge's voice! It's so pleasant. 😆.
The prosecution made some decent errors or omissions- especially weirdness surrounding the girlfriend, but its a good the jury came to the just conclusion.
@@jimmneedle I can agree with that. Chandler strikes me as the kind of killer that will never admit what truly happened.
He sounds like he’s reading a children’s book
Justice for Krista & Bart. 🙌🏻
And Mitchell.
@@SamFrayer yes & Mitchell
My heart aches for Mitchell.
Yes, I can't stop thinking about that poor young man.
Same. He has been on heart. He’s lost his whole family.
Same.
Do you think he will ever visit Chandler?
@@CJLOVE23 I don’t think for a long time. During his testimony he barely looked at his brother. It’s a very sad situation for Mitchell.
This is just so sad. I just hope it was quick and the parents didn’t suffer or didn’t see what was coming. I can’t imagine what their minds went through when their son was going to kill them.
Brilliant Judge, what a wonderful, kind and generous man he is...A true inspiration.
I would have been surprised if the verdict were otherwise: the State had a strong case and the prosecutors presented it well. The defense had very little to go on, there really was not much they could do.
I feel so bad for the public defenders who were assigned to this case. They knew it was totally hopeless. They are probably as glad as anyone this is over. Good Grief.
I have to say the closing argument by the defense could have used a warmer tone to what she was saying. She seemed condescending and dismissive. I know they had nothing to work with but she could have done a better job.
Defense Sucked !!!!! Are They Court Appointed ??? Those 2 Women Sucked. !!!
well said
The defence did a terrible job all over. Using the closing argument to present a case is pretty poor.
I think the was the most interesting trial I've seen in a long time. Congratulations to all involved who caught this monster and put the pieces together. This was an outstanding job put on by the prosecution!!! I knew right off the bat that Chandler was guilty, he showed no remorse ever for what happened.
I watched every minute of the trial. Extremely gripping.
@@jnnlis Agree, love the prosecutor! He was amazing. It seemed like I was watching a good TV show or movie and a bit bummed it’s over.
Best trial I've ever seen. Kudo's to the Judge, Prosecution team, LE, expert and lay witnesses. Well laid out and clear Prosecution. Most animated Chandler has been through the entire trial. Finally has to pay for his years of evil deception and acts.
I loved this judge!
Can’t say the verdict is surprising with so much evidence and proof of how everything happened. The only thing that’s surprising to me is the crime. The whole entirety of it. We all have our faults and nobody’s parents are perfect. Whatever happened in that house that lead to the gruesomeness of that crime will only be known by Chandler’s parents and himself. I hope his parents Rest In Peace and that Chandler bears the weight of the destruction he brought upon his family. So many lives ruined 😔
I wanna know the true story behind his parents death. Saying "He got caught in his lie, that why he killed them". Is the most least convincing thing I have ever heard. I think Ms. Catherine should have been investigated more. I think there are way too many red flags, and oddities with her to me.
@@jleif7736 My dude. His lies were all exposed and he was so willing and desperate to maintain those lies, that he decided to murder his parents. People have killed over less. That is what happened here.
@@jleif7736are you kidding? His girlfriend didn’t have a clue about any of it. She fell for all the lies that he had been telling her, basically since they met.
Its baffling to see even during the reading of the verdict he doesn’t show one ounce of emotion or sympathy. He’s so cold.
PSYCHOPATH.
I think he shook his head when the prosecutor called him a coward in the last statement.. otherwise just looking down and maybe doodling the whole time.
@@starrynyts1844 He looked really bored, even when they were reading the verdicts. Although I must say that his lawyer's head was in the way when the first guilty was read. I thought that he was going to fall asleep. He may have been very heavily medicated.
I love this judge. He handled himself so well and you can tell he’s a kind soul. I’m so impressed with the DA in this case and all the experts. They did an excellent job.
This judge is like the father most of us never had.
I'm going to miss seeing him every day and checking out his cool ties lol. O yeah an of course his soothing voice.
Yeah. I would have loved to have a father like him.
Sooo true!!
I wish all Judges were as Professional and well spoken as this Dude. He was even willing to do a Meet n Greet with the Jurors afterwards. Respect
This case led me to the Joel Guy case - 2 almost identical - the mind just boggles at how either of them thought that this was a course of action which would lead to anything other than moving into a prison cell for the rest of their days
Me too, however I found the Joel Guy case/trial much more horrific and disturbing, trying to dissolve his parents in acid and especially having put his moms head in a pot simmering on the stove for days. I could hardly look at the evil monster and they focused on him much more in court. I totally agree with judge saying he showed no remorse and seemed proud of everything he had done.
@@peaceblossom5852 same..he looked a bit horrifying as well
@@tmp1111 why does looks matter? Does looking ugly mean they are more dangerous than someone who is very attractive looking?
They're so self absorbed they actually thought no one would ask the next question and life goes on. Smfh
What made either of them think they'd get away with it? Joel Guy made a list of what he'd do to the parents- i.e. how he'd dismember them, and left it in the kitchen. These days, in order to get away with a murder one has to be either very lucky, or very clever. Probably both.
Good news! Since he lost the job at SpaceX, Chandler just announced he landed the job as Prison Warden.
This trial was very riveting.... I followed from a to z.... I always found trial to be so boring except this one.. the Prosecutor did a great job in putting all the pieces together..
@@dragonballz2410 Denise William Love Triangle Brian Winchester Testimony, I think is another interesting case that sucks me in for hours
Kudos to the prosecution and the jury I can only imagine how incredibly difficult this was
the defense was TERRIBLE.
Guilty on all counts
We found that out by watching the video.
@@andrewvelonis5940 absolutely correct!
That was like the fastest verdict ever in a high profile case
A very pleasant judge.
❤️ RIP Christa and Bart ❤️
What an amazing job the Sheriff's Department and all the experts did getting this case together for the DA's Office and what an excellent job they did of presenting the evidence. How great it would be if every county worked together so well.
I feel sooo bad 😔 for this family. Krista seemed so loving and caring and Bart obviously cared about the welfare of his kids. This scumbag Chandler, had a good life, one many would love to have. It sickens me that anyone can do such a thing to anyone, let alone their parents! Just disgusting!
May the their loved ones find peace and may Krista and Bart Rest in Eternal Peace 🙏🏾 ❤ 🕊🕊
Krista, I'm sad to say, appeared to be an enabler. Bart was the opposite and seemed to be bombastic and authoritarian. Chaz even made comments about them having a fight, like it was a routine thing (no doubt why he preferred downstairs where he could vape and game). I dont say these parents had it coming and made their son this way. If Im right though, it probable helped his psychosis along.
AMEN!!
I disagree. I think his psychosis was all on him to have committed crimes as heinous as these murders. No parents are perfect. Kids may grow up to have some issues but this guy's actions are unimaginably abnormal.
@@JudeScott007 I respectfully disagree. If that was the case then both son’s would have the same psychosis. Here is one son who is and the other with none. I agree that environment can foster psychosis but if none are present to begin with there is nothing to foster. He and he alone is responsible for his actions and the parents hold no blame or “part” in this situation. No hostility is implied with this comment.
@@JudeScott007 with all respect a mother cuddles a father is strict. it is like this in most households, just like the mothers gives punishments and the father agrees. this isn't enabling. she loved her son. he lied to them. there was no reason for her to see anything wrong. he said he was in college, that he had a job even was going to spacex to work. than he told her he fell and had a head injury.
so no she wasn't an enabler. because she thought he was doing things. he was just lazy. if he had put all those efforts he did by deceiving his parents into getting a real job and following a real education and be a man this would have never happened he was just lazy and obviously of a low iq seeing how he went to work about all this.
This is so sad I can't see how anyone can mutilate their parents the way this creep did this creep needs to get what's coming to him he got a guilty verdict give him the max
@@SethHollingshead That would be too good for him. Let him age in prison.
I have to admit I was a little nervous. 3% of the population that took the poll during today’s closing argument thought he was not guilty. It only takes one to jack up the case. Clearly the evidence shows he’s guilty but there’s always one in the crowd.
Most of the 3% were trolls or did not watch the whole trial. Also Barts murder could have been 2nd degree, which was not a charge.
I wasn’t convinced until his fingerprints were on the duct tape AND I watched the Ring Videos of the car leaving and returning. Once I was convinced he was in the house, my verdict was guilty.
@@SamFrayer He was the only one that could have done it.
@@SamFrayer Yep based on those things we know he was involved, this guilty of sething heinous, but not the intent piece. But yeah he was going away w that trial.
That 3 % were trolls.
This is like the most slam dunk case for the prosecution ever. I bet it only took them 5 mins to reach verdict, then 2hrs to have lunch, talk about which NFL teams will win this weekend and just how f'ed this guy will be in jail.
Enjoy the rest of your pathetic life behind the iron bars, Chaz. Can't even imagine what inmates will do to a guy with a cute nickname 'Chaz'.
Oh Chazzle Dazzle, the inmates are salivating already, lol. Chazzle Dazzle. Ooh, I bet he wishes his former girlfriend hadn't used that moniker for him on her phone texts... 😆
What a wonderful judge
He exemplifies The Wisconsin Way.
I wish all judges were like this
In almost every single verdict reading as guilty, the defense attorneys will comfort their client. You see NONE of that here. LOL.
I hope he gets LWOP.
When is the sentencing?
At least now Chandler doesn't need to worry about getting a job.
I gotta feeling he's going to have a job alright. Brother gonna need some commissary. So long Cat. Hello Jimbo.
No remorse. No emotion whatsoever. Cold and calculated.
@@janicekamalski5938 😆
@@violagentsch girl you know that tuna boona gonna cost ya!
Should haveade him stand while listening yo verdict
Yeah that was irregular..... Nothing about this trial was "normal".
@@StacyL. I just figured that's how they do things in Wisconsin. I don't know what your conception of "normal" is.
I actually did not want him to testify. The way he was lying during his police interview, we would have been listening to his lies until 2023.
Had seen the reading of verdict in Arbery trial and arrogant father and son remained seated also. The third guy stood.
Just as he witnessed his parents last moment of life; we have now watched his last….. RIP Bart & Krista Halderson
You missed the point. The point is he used the same antique saw his grandpa used to build his grandpa house with his bare hands to dismember his boomer parents. This is the irony of god.Theres no denying these are the jokes god finds funny
Amen brother!
GUILTY AS CHARGED ON ALL COUNTS!!!!💯👍🏻
Yeah, we know.
This Judge reads the verdict like he is giving the mega million numbers.
I think that many young women should pay attention to the fact of his scrud manipulation of his ex girlfriend! It seems to me that his failed plan was to incriminate her her family and her friend's in an absurd attempt to cover his horrible crime!....Wishing that every one involved can find some piece by seeing the tremendous effort of the Dep.of Justice in bringing clarification to this tragedy
That is an excellent point!! I bet that was his plan and why he invited her over to the house, and planted the gun and chest there. Sick!!!
@Mama2CDHsurvivor omg I didn't think about how inviting her to the house might have been an attempt to incriminate her as well, but now that you mention it, didn't they "camp out" in the living room where the fireplace was too? He was trying to incriminate her! Ugh. He makes me sick.
A famous defence lawyer once said..........'If the glove doesn't fit you must acquit'.
In this case Chandler Halderson had a made to measure suit!
Taylor Made
The Judge throughout this case has been the best I have ever seen.
Agree! Wish all Judges be like him!!
Thank you Judge!
🙏🏼🤍
I reckon his lawyer has been sat playing Solitaire this entire case.
He destroyed a family … His brother must feel as in a nightmare ! God bless him and prayers for some kind of peace
Dated someone who lied about graduating from college when he was flunking out. On graduation day he asked me and his family to stay away because he wanted to attend commencement with his friends only, but he'd catch up with us l8r. His family had flown in all the way from Texas. They were not happy but they were trusting & agreed to stay in the hotel. I knew something was wrong (had suspected he was flunking out coz I knew his major & I knew he wasn't spending enough time studying). I confronted him majorly! It was rough. I wasn't planning on getting murdered so he could protect his secret.
From what I have read in many of these comments regarding this case, there seems to be quite a number of students that flunk out. They are terrified to tell their parents. Usually due to picking the wrong major, too much partying, the inability to handle their new found freedom. Any number of reasons. Just curious...how did he tell his parents finally? Did he go back to school?
@peggy peggy he did tell his parents, and it wasn't pretty. He thought he had it bad from me... his parents went to another level, and I couldn't blame them.
He changed schools and went to a much easier grad school (he'd been in Ivy League), but we broke up before he graduated. Don't know if he did graduate, but from pictures I see on Facebook, he's not doing exactly great for the moneyed career he was going for. I suspect he couldn't get in anywhere that pays Ivy League graduate salaries.
RIP Bart and Krista 🙏
I hope now both parents Rest In Peace ❤️💛❤️
poor Mitchel
Outstanding job to the prosecution!! Great job by all the investors and awesome job by the jury!! I really enjoyed this Judge; he did a great job!! I totally agree with the jury!! I hope he never gets out after what he did!! Such a sad case. My prayers to out to Mr. and Mrs. Halderson families.
If prayers worked, people wouldn't need to pray....
@@JudeScott007, wow, you are so rude!!!
I still don't understand why he pled not guilty instead of taking some kind of plea deal. But justice has been served. RIP Bart and Krista.
then hed have to admit to everyone he did it.. now he can keep his lies alive.. at least in his head
Maybe they didn't offer him a plea deal
He is a walking zombie. The brother owes the world insight so maybe future cases like this can be stopped before they happen.
They didn’t offer him a plea. And he took it to trial because of you plead guilty it makes it much harder to get an appeal or sentence overturned. So I’m assuming he did it for the hope of getting appeal one day or some type of error made during trial that could get his sentence overturned or just get a new trial.
His lawyers tried to get a plea deal but the state knew they had a monumental amount of evidence and were going to go with first degree intentional homicide. They weren't willing to negotiate. As they well shouldn't. So the Wisconsin taxpayers get screwed with having to go through this lengthy trial. If Wisconsin had the death penalty they might have allowed him to plead down to life imprisonment w/o parole but it doesn't. That is what happened with Chris Watts. He pled guilty and got life in prison instead of the death penalty. With this one the state wasn't going to give an inch because they knew they had him. Great job by the state.
I hope part of his sentence is that he is not allowed to collect not one penny for interviews, book deals,movie deals and no money for his books while in jail
In the UK you cannot profit from a crime you have committed. So you can't inherit anything from poeple you've killed. You can't write anything like a book for example and profit from that. Is it different in the US?
In the US also a convict cannot profit from book deals, etc.
That's a part of every convicted murderers sentence... The Slayers Law.
Here after watching the trial and Chandler and Cat interrogation videos, what a tragic case, absolutely horrible. 💔
Chandler, by all 10 days...his eyes were the most moist before Jury returned...so sad. Self serving, even unto the end. Great Form Prosecution. I would have asked Chandler to 'stand and face the Jury' when read but that is just me.
I can’t believe he actually started crying as the verdicts were being read.
I went back because I thought I missed him crying. I didn't see where he was crying at all. Before the jury returned and during the reading of the verdicts.
Did he really think he could get away with it? So much evidence a brain dead guy.
@@connieheitz8982 Yeah he wasn’t crying. I just rewatched on a big screen. No emotion
Justice served.
R.I.P. Bart & Krista 🙏💗🙏💙🙏
Condolences to Mitchel.
Amazing job by prosecution! Airtight!
Everyone is in love with this judge. His hair has the masses hypnotized.
Krista reminds me of my mom and I couldn't imagine someone hurting her 😭😭 I'd literally die. This made me cry too much. 😭😭
The only thing that gives me any comfort is that they were shot in the back. They didn't know their son shot them.
May the family move on now and find some sort of peace
Kind of tacky for the defense attorney to send a text from her phone while the verdicts were being read.
Dude, they had no case plus you really want to support a monster like him?
Thank God for Justice for Mr and Mrs Henderson!
May they rest in heavenly peace now!
🙏🏼🤍🖤🤍🙏🏼
Who ?
On behalf of all of us law abiding citizens for justice, our deepest and sincerest regards and respect go to every single law enforcement individual that worked this case, as well of course for the BRILLIANT judge and prosecutors, other court staff, and jurors who brought this monster to justice. RIP sweet Bart and Krista. 🙏🏻❤️🇺🇸
Why can't the murder stand to hear his guilty verdict....seems like the lest he could do! 😡 now he owes his Brother an explanation as to why!!! He owes him that!!!
A guy like that cannot owe anyone anything because he doesn't give a flying fig about anyone.
@@milliemitchell7716 true. He doesn't care ... but his poor Brother and now Uncle....they deserve the truth 😔
I thought his not standing to hear the verdict was unusual.
Psychopaths don't give explanations. He wanted a jury trial to see the reactions of all the carnage left behind.
He doesn't deserve the death penalty; lett him age in prison with no self reflection as he has no conscience.
BTW, Wisconsin doesn't have the death penalty.
I thought the same thing, but I guess maybe the Defendant might collapse?
Sad to see this was a necessary process. Great job by the prosecution. Horrible situation. I would not have been able to be a juror because he was guilty the moment the prosecution gave its opening statement I would have yelled out...oooh he did it, GUILTY....then they would have kicked me out...
That was FAST. GUILTY
If only the defense had more tables! Maybe they would have won lol. A real open and shut case.
They had nothing I was amazed she found something to say in her summing up poor woman what a case to have to take, a useless evil guy with no respect for the parents who loved him and to whom he lied but I think that is not the only reason this will not be known
Too funny!
@@carolegray6835 You know, seeing just the little bit of text messages from his mom, you could just feel that love from her. And one of his messages, Pick up soda...No sir. You dont simply demand something you want. Just zero respect. I feel for Mitchel and just everyone involved.
Thank you Jurors!
I bet at least 1 1/2 of the 2 hours of deliberation was used to fill out the jury forms. Slam DUNK!
Once again, not support for Chandler by defense attorneys. I have never seen anything quite like this. They just leave him sitting behind them all alone.
Dude, they had no case to prove his innocence, they were likely provided by the state
How long did they deliberate today before reaching the verdict? Just got home from work and couldn't get to YT fast enough to get an update on the trial!
Roughly 2 hours I think
2 hours!
Yes, Virginia, there IS A Santa Claus!! Thank you to those jurors for continuing to make this an HONEST & truthful justice system in our country!!
Mind blowing case. THANK YOU JURY.
Killing his parents was awful. But the worst part was the dismembering and scattering the pieces on the forest.
Judge Hyland was Great. he was so professional and had a beautiful personality.
It’s just so sad, all he would have had to do is sit down with his parents and come clean. Say something like “I was lying because I didn’t want to disappoint you”. Go get himself the first job he could find.
By this point, two years later it would have all blown over and no one would have known about the situation other than his parents and girlfriend. Most likely the parents would have put him through school and made sure he really went. Having parents angry for a month,seems like a better plan than shooting,dismembering,burning and disposing of and being a evil villain to the whole world, rotting in prison for the rest of yr life.
The evidence against Chandler was overwhelming. The persecution & detectives did a fantastic job...
Good job to the prosecution and jury. His lawyers seem disinterested. The one didn’t even look up for most of the trial.
A family member of mine is a lawyer- in an area that requires all lawyers to work state appointed cases. He hates it, but does what he can as guaranteed by the Constitution.
His lawyers knew they didn't have a chance. The prosecution team was excellent, but they also had the benefit of overwhelming evidence. His lawyers probably begged him to plead guilty, knowing a trial would be futile, but Chandler Halderson is a liar, narcissist and psychopath who will never take responsibility for his actions. He'll never stop working the con. I felt bad for his lawyers, honestly. What a miserable, dirty, thankless job they were tasked with. I'm sure they were glad to see the back of him.
The defence team couldn’t do anything.
Back on the record at 2:12
Jury foreperson confirmed 4:36
Judge reads the VERDICT 5:15
I can’t even get my mind around being related to someone capable such a horrendous thing.
How long did the jury take to deliberate the verdict⁉️ I'm asking because I watched the live feed of the trial but I had to work so didn't watch verdict live
A little over 2 hours!
2 hours, to consider 8 charges. They pretty much spent it ticking the guilty boxes and filling out paperwork.
@@Peperica98 They probably decided in less than five minutes and sat and talked about the weather and football. Just to make it look as if they deliberated over it. I was on a jury once (not a murder trial) and that's what happened with us. We came in and did the first vote and everyone agreed but we stayed in there for an hour or two just so it didn't look as if we rushed the verdict.
@@Peperica98 I said 2 hours including lunch before deliberations started
One thing he never considered is just working something chill like landscaping
The defense literally had no shot they had no defense at all. Alibi didn't have one, phone record go against him, physical evidence again against him, motive proved and relevant to time of crime... what defense attory could possibly come up with a actual plan to give reasonable doubt in this case?
@@926paaja what angle realistically would’ve gone better for them? I’ve been trying to think of one. But the state had such a massive pile of evidence against him I don’t know what would’ve worked.
@@926paaja I agree. They did nothing. I wonder if he has a right to a new trial because of their incompetence.
My thought is if he trys for an appeal what will the defense be a second time around and why couldn't they have said the first time...also what appellate judge is going to look at all the DNA evidence phone forensics physical forensics ext and say hey ur lawyers sucked and even though DNA evidence and phone locations proving u were in the locations the body's parts were found and oh the bones in ur house someone tried to burn for hours while u were home cuz ur phone was home...the same home nobodies been in but u and ur girlfriend and ur girlfriend doesn't have motive or any other thing linking her to the crimes besides dating a psychopath. but hey here's a new trial...that's just not how appeals work from my knowledge
Yes, there was nothing they could do. They probably begged him to listen to reason and plead guilty, but, being a narcissistic psychopath, he refused. There was no coherent defense whatsoever that would stand up to that much evidence.
@@Lakirk2023 They could do nothing. They had no proof that he was innocent.
Not a surprise at all that he was found guilty!! I can’t wait to see his sentencing hearing and pray they throw the book at him!! He can enjoy the “real” life behind bars in prison and I don’t see him doing well at all!! I want to send love and prayers to all the family and friends…and jurors…impacted forever by this gruesome, horrific tragedy and hope now that he’s been found guilty…they can start the healing process…which will never fully happen!! ❤️ 🙏 Rest In Peace also Bart and Krista!
Prayers for everyone 🙏
Every birthday, every Christmas will feel empty. We all get to live our lives once this stream ends, but for the older brother, it`s a different world he faces. Infamous for the most painful of reasons.
The judge makes you have faith in 5he judicial system. I have never witnessed a more personable judge except the one in the Alex Murdaugh case. So so respectful. Thank you,Your Honor.🙏
Judge was Amazing. His eloquence is and was second to none. He should be promote d in every which way 🙏🙏🙏
Wonderful news !!!
This judge has been a class act from day one.
This is just sad for the whole family 👪 How can anyone kill their parents 😔. The young man is sick 😫
Finally... Watched whole trial and missed verdict! 🤦🏼♀️
Hope he finally admits it and discloses what he done with his poor parent's missing body parts 😭
As far as I can tell, the missing parts are probably burned to ash, or buried in a landfill, or swept away in the fast-moving river that's unsafe for divers to search. Even if he did finally man up, which I doubt he ever will, I'd be surprised if anything could actually be recovered :(. It's an utter horror
Very sad, this perfect storm of abandonment culture that we see all too often that's tearing this country apart with a plague of criminality, violence, homelessness, poverty, etc.
There are no winners when people stop caring about each other.
Hands down this prosecution was on point 200 plus %! The defense was week and truthfully quite pathetic! Definitely would NEVER hire them! All the evidence was absolutely factual and evident that was provided by the prosecution! They did an exquisite job! All the witnesses helped contribute factual evidence to seek justice for Mr. Bart and Mrs. Krista Halderson! May they both Rest In Peace! My deep condolences goes to Mitchell Halderson only!
The most pitiful defense team ever
The defense didn't have a defense. Can you understand that.
The defense didn't have much to work with.
In the trials I've watched, the judge always uses jurors' numbers when polling. Weird that he used their initials -- and really not good that he slipped and used the one juror's last name. :-/
Aye, slipping on the name was a bit naughty, but I don't think anyone will be harassing these jurors, except maybe the parent-murdering lobby.
I really thought the judge thought the mic was off. As soon as it happened the sound immediately went off.
@@johnbull1568 True enough, this isn't the Casey Anthony trial. Your comment was hilarious !! 🙂😊🙂
