Moms Who Murder | Jessica Chandler & Lacey Spears

Timestamp to skip the intro - (7:38)In October 2024, a 911 call was placed from the home of Tennessee woman Jessica Chandler. When authorities arrived, they found her two children, aged 4 and 1, unresponsive. Both children were declared dead at the scene.When authorities first investigated, it was determined that Jessica had likely poisoned her children before making a superficial attempt to take her own life. Authorities initially believed this as empty medication bottles were found at the scene. This case is unfolding in the courts at the moment and we have since learned that Jessica actually smothered her children with a Lilo and Stitch blanket.Lacey Spears lived an unusual and tumultuous life. Growing up, she told stories about abuse, eating disorders and abortion. None of which have been proven to be true. Lacey gave birth to a son, Garnett, in 2008. She immediately made up lies about Garnett’s father and started documenting her sons ‘medical issues’ online. Lacey insisted that Garnett have a feeding tube placed because he was unable to tolerate standard feeding. Nurses were skeptical as they were able to feed the baby without any issues.When Garnett was five, he ended up being airlifted to hospital. His sodium levels were so high that a doctor confronted his mother about the situation. Garnett passed away days later and a police investigation began.Lacey was convicted of murdering her son by injecting him with ultra levels of sodium. Authorities believe she suffers from Munchausen syndrome by proxy.Poisoning murders are a very rare occurrence. This method accounts for just under one-half of one percent of murders.Read our blog for these cases -https://truecrimesocietyblog.com/2025/01/05/moms-who-murder-poison/Be sure to join us on Patreon for ad-free and exclusive weekly contentJoin us on Instagram for the latest crime newsThis episode is sponsored by: Graza Olive Oil -  Take your food to the next level with Graza Olive Oil.
