Chandler Halderson had a bright future...or at least, that’s what he told everyone. But when quiet questions started being asked at home, he chose a solution far darker than the truth. Within days, his parents were missing, and the life he had so carefully constructed began to unravel. In today’s episode, we explore how Chandler's deception spiraled into an unthinkable crime... and how the cracks in his story (and Snapchat) ultimately exposed it all.
