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.”

That’s a really interesting comment. I’ve watched a lot of murder trials, and I have to say, it doesn’t matter _what_ the defendant does when photos of the body at the scene and during autopsy are being shown, people have very strong, negative emotions. For example, there are the murderers who look without flinching, as we’ve seen here (but remember that we don’t get to watch him all the time, so we really don’t know what he was doing for the rest of the time, which is significant). Then, when the defendant holds his face in his hands, people uniformly say, “The judge should MAKE him look at what he did!!” If the person cries and looks down, people say, “Oh, look at the crocodile tears, what a fake!!” I get that murderers are terrible, horrible people, but interpreting how they feel about what they did by the way they react to images of their victims isn’t something we can do very well....it’s like trying to figure out, as in this case, this boy could have cut his parents into pieces....it’s just inconceivable. (Just an observation.)

Well, as a certified psychologist, I can tell you there had to have been a psychological break when he realized his parents were going to find out that he was a fraud, and that he’d been living a fake life. They were thinking he was doing really well and would be graduating, finding a job, and moving out, but he hadn’t done anything at all. I feel that there had to have been some kind of personality disorder going on for this boy to do what he’d done....covert narcissists can have hugely violent responses to being exposed as frauds, but since I’ll never be evaluating him, I have no idea what happened. It’s absolutely true that he felt he was responding the only way he could bc he couldn’t bear to have his parents get very emotional with him, yelling at him, kicking him out, telling his brother, their relatives and friends what a loser he was....whatever he had going on in his head, he felt it would last forever, but that’s bc he could yet project his mind into the future. Somehow it didn’t occur to him that DEATH is forever. Males don’t fully mature cognitively and emotionally until the age of 26 or even later, so this boy’s brain couldn’t yet allow him to fully understand the time-space continuum; he obviously couldn’t see that his lies and failures weren’t the end of the world....to him, it was. So, now his world is over; what he did to his parents is unforgivable, and now his brother is all alone, without his parents to guide him. I’m sorry to be so long, but I do have to say that in the world we now live in, I don’t even believe it’s safe for most middle class kids under the age of 25 to be living on their own. They’re so sheltered and naive, and constantly put their business on the Internet and can’t understand that the mere acquaintances they “friend” on Facebook and Instagram, not to mention the dating sites, can be sociopaths and psychopaths. My husband and I were very relaxed with our sons throughout their 20s bc they didn’t have a clue what they wanted to do....forcing them get out there and to make a choice wouldn’t have made that happen faster! It would only have increased their anxiety and ruined our relationships! And we found out later that their biggest anxiety was wasting our money as they went through the motions in university. They had to work, of course, and they’re incredibly grateful that we gave them the space they need to figure themselves out. I’m afraid many kids from middle class homes are really pressured hard to move on with their lives too fast after high school....some can take it, and others can’t.

I am not sure if I agree with the objection that the defense made in regards to the detective stating that that is a wound consistent of a gun shot. Reason being that the detective has worked multiple cases in homicide and has seen enough to determine what he observes as an expert. Also, many detectives are required to take classes that present different types of wounds resulting from different types of weapons or methods used. I would say many detectives are actually expert in this regard. Yes, medical examiners due have the upper hand in recognizing these wounds in a higher detail than the detectives can due to their training.

It's just so difficult to go there in my mind, but yet I do, and yet I am.

Just unsure if she has siblings, somewhere. I hope Chandler is so alone, and totally, disregarded in any family members that are left here, I only hope they put him completely out of their lives.
