139: Terror by Sea
from True Crime Brewery Hosted by True Crime Brewery
Oba Chandler was executed in 2011 for the killings of a mother and her two daughters off the coast of south Florida. Jo Rogers and her two teenaged daughters were enjoying a rare and well-deserved vacation when they were approached by Oba Chandler and invited to take a cruise on his boat. He seemed like a kind, harmless, middle-aged man. There was nothing threatening about him. But Chandler had an extensive criminal history. He had been lying, stealing, and sexually assaulting women for most of his adult life. When he got his three victims out on the water where no one could hear them scream for help, he killed them all, tossing them into the water to drown. Hal Rogers waited at home on his Ohio farm for his family to return. The news would be devastating. And it took three years to find their killer. Investigators learned the hard way how good Chandler was at covering his tracks. In Terror by Sea, we follow the history of a sociopath and the investigation that finally led to justice for his victims and the people they left behind.
