West Virginia Mother Killer In West Virginia, a woman has been charged
with murder following the deaths of both her mother and sister.
This diabolical woman allegedly staged their deaths to make it look as though the daughter
killed the mother, then turned the gun on herself.
It was an extremely elaborate scheme to get away with one of the worst crimes imaginable.
It happened back in 2017, with the police originally convinced by the story that there
was nobody else involved in the case except for the two dead people.
It wasn't until later that they finally figured out Megan Hargan had set the whole thing up.
She is responsible for the murder of her mother Pamela and her younger sister Helen.
She shot her mother in the head in the laundry room of their home, then blasted Helen in
the upstairs bedroom.
She might have gotten away with it too if she had staged the scene a little better.
According to Fairfax County Police Major Ed O’Carroll, a hard look at the evidence proved
the whole house had been set up to confuse the cops.
He also called what happened “domestic violence at its worst.”
As for why Megan turned on her mother and sister, a family friend told local news that
Megan was very jealous.
Her mother had purchased a home for her sister Helen while giving her nothing.
She took her anger out on both of them in cold blood.

Internal Demons Chris Coleman was born into a community of
evangelical Christians.
His father and mother were preachers, meaning he spent his entire childhood being smothered
by their way of thinking.
When he entered high school, he became a normal teenager, going out and getting drunk and
having fun.
But being raised so hardcore Christian meant that he actually called his basketball coach
and confessed that he had been drinking.
In other words, he was a very conflicted individual.
Chris grew up and met Sheri, Sheri got pregnant, and the two got married.
But their marriage was doomed from the start.
It's important to note that Chris was making a significant amount of money after they had
their first child as head of security for a company.
I'm talking at least $100,000 a year.
This money changed Chris, made him cocky.
He began to have an affair with Sheri’s best friend from high school.
The two became serious and Chris began plotting how to get rid of his current wife.
But like back when he was a teenager, his selfish desire clashed with his Christian
upbringing.
The scheme involved sending fake threats to himself.
Chris lived beside a police detective named Justin Barlow with the Columbia Police Department.
Chris sent himself threatening emails to try and make it look like somebody was interested
in killing his entire family.
Then on May 5, 2009, the detective received a call from Chris.
Chris said he had been trying to reach his wife but she wouldn't answer the phone.
When Barlow went to do a welfare check, he found both Chris’s children strangled to
death in their beds, with Sheri also dead from strangulation.
Of course, it was Chris that did it.
All evidence pointed to him killing his own family just so he could escape with his wife’s
best friend and start a new life.
He was charged with all three murders and given life in prison.

Laundry Day Shane Finnell shot his sister-in-law over
a bad laundry day.
At least, that's how Shane has described his own motive in the fatal shooting that just
took place in Oregon.
His sister-in-law, Alexandra, was completely innocent.
Her only crime was her marriage to Shane’s brother, Jordan.
When the two brothers got into a fight over laundry, Shane got so angry that he threw
a potted plant at his brother, pulled out a gun, and walked straight over to his brother’s
wife where she sat on a patio chair.
She had her back to him, looking across the yard in the other direction and probably trying
to ignore the brothers fighting.
She never even knew she died.
Shane held the gun to the back of her head and pulled the trigger, blowing her brains
out the front of her face.
There was really no escaping this for Shane.
He killed her in front of a witness and did it in cold blood.
When police arrested him, he told them, “I did a horrible thing.”
And yeah, he sure did.
Something tells me there was more than laundry at play here.
Perhaps Shane was actually jealous of his brother’s wife.

An Addicted Son A man has beaten his elderly mother to death
with a stick.
According to the report in Latin Times, the man beat his mother with the stick because
she refused to give him money to purchase drugs.
The woman was just 60 years old when her son, 38, showed up in the early hours of the morning
begging for money.
He was already a known drug addict, he had already gotten in trouble with his brother
for picking fights with their mom, and the police had even gotten reports before that
he’d beaten the woman up.
This time, the addict son went too far.
Locals in town heard screaming at 4:30 in the morning but didn't bother reporting it
to the police because it happened so frequently.
It was the man’s brother who came upon the scene just as he was finishing off their mother
with the stick.
He thrashed her until she stopped moving, and sadly the other brother intervened too
late.
The police were eventually brought to the house, at which point the drug addict was
carried away, later to be charged with murder.

Turning on the Spouses In the year 1924, two residents of Illinois
decided they were going to murder their own spouses so that they could be together.
This was Elsie Sweetin and the Reverend Lawrence Height, a couple of adulterers who needed
to get rid of their pesky spouses so that they could run away and be happy together.
Their method of killing was arsenic.
The reverend poisoned his wife Anna and Elsie murdered her husband Wilford.
She gave Wilford chocolate candy mixed with poison, he became super sick, and the next
day she mixed more poison in with his oatmeal and fed that to him.
The final dose was fed the day after the oatmeal, with a healthy helping of poison in his tomato
soup.
Amazingly, the pair almost got away with the crime.
But in the small town of Ina back in the 1920s, secrets weren't exactly easy to keep.
People were quick to realize that the two were consorting with one another, the sheriff
got involved, and the whole thing blew up in their faces.
The sheriff actually had to pick them up and drive them out of town so they wouldn't get
lynched.
What do you think could push two people to commit such horrible crimes against their
very own spouses?
Do you think this is inherent evil or just the byproduct of some seriously sick minds?

The Worst Brother Julie Archer was 49 years old when she died
from what have been described as horrific injuries.
These injuries were the result of her brother, Stephen Archer, dousing her in a lethal mix
of gasoline and mineral spirits inside her home.
The mixture was made in a Pepsi bottle, what the prosecution in the case called an aggressively
flammable liquid.
While Julie was sitting on her sofa in the living room, Stephen emptied the bottle over
her head and then ignited the vapor.
Julie burst into flame and began to scream.
At the time, her 19-year-old daughter was upstairs listening to the whole thing.
She described the explosion as an earthquake, saying it literally shook the house.
Julie, on fire and burning like a scarecrow, staggered outside and fell down in the front
garden.
Her daughter was trapped upstairs choking on thick black smoke.
And yet even though she was almost already dead, Julie tried to drag herself back through
the front door when she realized her daughter was stuck upstairs.
But Julie just didn't have the strength.
Luckily, her daughter managed to escape through the window and jump out of the house.
But let's go back to Stephen, who attempted to murder his own sister.
There's no doubt that that’s exactly what he was trying to do.
He even wrote her a card while she was in the hospital saying, “karma has punished
you through me.”
But she didn’t get well in the hospital and died from her burns.
Apparently, the whole reason for this vicious attack was that Stephen blamed Julie for the
recent death of his father.

AR-15 & Hammer A man from Farmington has done something absolutely
heinous.
His name is Blake Thomas Maloney, just 26 years old.
He's been charged with three counts of murder: one for his father, one for his mother, and
one for his brother.
If convicted, he'll be getting life in prison.
It all began when the police received a call from somebody worried about her friend.
Tracy Ahn Maloney had gone to the house of her ex-husband to visit her sons but never
left.
The friend was worried that something may have happened.
When officers went to the residence to look, they found Blake Maloney inside along with
the corpse of Tracy, whom he had beaten to death with a hammer.
He then placed a yoga mat over her face and let her bleed to death on the kitchen floor.
Tracy was his mother.
When the police searched the basement, they found Jack John Maloney dead and covered over
with a blanket.
He was killed by a gunshot wound to the head, from when his own son Blake opened fire on
him with an AR-15.
And finally, 23-year-old Scott was also found dead from a gunshot wound to the head, Blake’s
own brother.
Why did he do it?
Blake Maloney turned out to be completely insane.
He told investigators in an interview that he didn't believe those people were his family,
so he murdered them.
And that's it, he had no better excuse than that.
He was just delusional and dangerous.

The Facebook Dad A father in Canada killed off his entire family.
One by one, he murdered his wife, his daughter, and his sister.
And then to make things truly strange, he confessed everything he did in a bizarre Facebook
post.
His name is Randy Janzen, and his online friends were stupefied when an admission of homicide
turned up on his Facebook wall.
He admitted that he killed his daughter because she was suffering from severe migraines and
there was no end in sight for her pain.
So, like a deer that you've accidentally hit with your car, Randy thought the best thing
to do was put his daughter Emily out of her misery.
He did this with a bullet to her head while she wasn't looking.
Then, to spare his wife the horror of knowing that her daughter was dead, he blasted her
in the face too.
The final victim of his murderous rampage was his sister Shelly.
He didn't want her living with the guilt and shame of knowing her brother was a murderer
and that he'd killed her beloved niece.
So, Randy drove to her home and shot her in the back of the head.

Maryland Triple Murder In Maryland, Jeffrey Alan Burnham turned on
his brother, attacked his sister-in-law, and also killed an elderly woman.
Police officers originally discovered the body of Rebecca Reynolds in her home with
obvious trauma.
Someone had beaten the lady, 83 years old at the time of her attack, to death and then
stolen her 2020 Lincoln.
The thief and murderer was Jeffrey.
He did away with the lady just to get her car, so he could drive to his brother and
shoot him and his wife to death.
Then after making quick work of his brother and his brother’s wife, he stole their 2007
Corvette and took off.
Police were able to identify the bright red Corvette pretty easily.
Jeffrey was taken into custody in just a few hours.
And when they questioned him, it turned out Jeffrey was an absolute lunatic.
He was furious at his brother, who was a pharmacist, for allegedly poisoning people with COVID
vaccines.
Jeffrey was so angry at the government and at his brother for helping in the vaccine
rollout that he betrayed nearly 50 years of brotherhood.
All family values went out the window and his own crackpot theories led him to murder,
then straight to jail.

A Man Gone Crazy A judge has sentenced Ronnie Oneal to three
consecutive life sentences, with an additional 90 years tacked on for good measure.
He described what Ronnie Oneal did as the worst case he has ever seen in 19 years as
a judge.
Ronnie is responsible for murdering his girlfriend and then turning on their own kids.
In fact, his own son testified against him at the murder trial.
From what was made clear at the trial, Ronnie murdered his own daughter, Ron’niveya, who
just so happened to be special needs and unable to talk.
But first he murdered his girlfriend, Ron’niveya’s mother, right in front of her.
Because his daughter was special needs, she couldn't scream, she couldn't get away, she
couldn't do anything.
She was totally helpless as her father bashed her in the face with a hatchet until she was
dead.
And all the while, his son was watching in utter horror and disbelief.
Then Ronnie turned on his own son, but luckily didn't manage to finish the job before police
and firefighters were on the scene.
In the end, his son lived but his daughter was gone forever.
It was one of the most brutal attacks a parent perpetrated against their own kid that I've
honestly ever heard of.
Thanks for watching!
