48 Hours The Snapchat Clue Airs August 17 2024 on CBS

On August 17, 2024, “48 Hours” will revisit a chilling case in an episode titled “The Snapchat Clue,” airing at 10/9c on CBS and streaming on Paramount+.

The episode delves into the disappearance of Bart and Krista Halderson from Windsor, Wisconsin, in July 2021. Their 23-year-old son, Chandler Halderson, reported them missing, claiming they had gone to their cabin for the Fourth of July weekend but never returned. The case took a dark turn when Chandler’s girlfriend, Cathryn “Cat” Mellender, provided crucial evidence from her Snapchat app, which showed Chandler at a remote location near the Wisconsin River during the time his parents were missing.

This lead led detectives to discover human remains, first belonging to Krista and later Bart, found at different locations. Chandler was subsequently charged with the murder, dismemberment, and deception related to his parents’ deaths. He pleaded not guilty, claiming the prosecution lacked sufficient evidence. Despite his defense’s efforts, Chandler was convicted on all counts and sentenced to life in prison without parole.

The episode will explore the details of the investigation, trial, and the reasons behind Chandler’s drastic actions.
