In this episode, we unravel the horrifying story of Carl “Charlie” Brandt, a man whose seemingly normal life hid a chilling past and a deadly secret. It all began in 1971, when a teenage Charlie shocked his family by killing his pregnant mother and attempting to murder his father and sister. Committed to a psychiatric facility for just one year, Charlie was released, and his dark history was buried—only to resurface decades later in an even more terrifying way.
Fast forward to 2004: Seeking refuge from Hurricane Ivan, Charlie and his wife, Teri, stayed with his niece, Michelle Jones. Days later, police discovered Michelle’s mutilated body, Teri stabbed to death, and Charlie hanging in the garage. What drove him to commit such brutal acts?
We’ll delve into his obsessive interest in anatomy, his disturbing internet searches, and the shocking connections to cold cases like the 1989 murder of Sherry Perisho. Was Charlie Brandt a dormant serial killer hiding in plain sight? Join us as we explore the dark psychology, the buried family secrets, and the lingering mysteries that continue to haunt investigators and the victims’ families.
