Just do a search under "Mother Daughter Tragedy" on the forbidden video site and you'll find it. It's an old version from before Chandler was discovered to be the killer, so there's no mention of him in the segment.

Actually, I think there is an update on the video on the forbidden site which shows him being taken to police headquarters after he was arrested.

Looks like Oba Chandler's death warrant has been signed.

Execution date is 11/15/2011

He is 65 years old and killed the Rogers family 22 years ago.

It's about time. Thanks for the update.

Thank God. This is long overdue. There is a nice spot in hell reserved for Oba Chandler.

I'm curious... I know that there are quite a few Unsolved Mysteries criminals who are currently on death row, but will Oba Chandler be the first one to actually be executed? While I'm generally not pro-death penalty, I can't think of a better candidate than him.

TracyLynnS · 10-11-2011, 11:35 AM

Earlier today, I read where some years ago, Oba Chandler said that his final words in the death chamber were going to be, "Kiss my rosy red a*s."

I'll be interested to see if this disgusting piece of trash will chicken out once he's strapped to the gurney, or if he'll really go to meet his maker with those words on his lips.

And there better not be a "stay" in this one. 22 years is already too long to wait for justice.

Thanks for the update. His execution should be the same as his victims.

Completely agree!

"Thanks for the update. His execution should be the same as his victims."

I know many believe that it's wrong and does no good/just as cruel, but that's how I feel about all the rapists/murderers, etc. (UM cases and in general) should be executed/killed: the same way they did to their victims. Then they'll get to feel how painful and torturous it is.

Call me cruel or extreme, but if that was actually gone through with those PROVEN guilty, then I think major crime(s) would start to decrease.

The way I see it is this: They didn't care about the people they raped and murdered or injured. so why should we give them that luxary? I mean really... Prisoners get food, shelter, and other privleges. not saying Prison is a cakewalk but meanwhile the victims are dead or traumatised for life. don't get me started on the people who linger on Deathrow for years and years before finally getting their just desserts.

A needle in the arm or other such methods for killing or causing other harm to someone feels like an act of kindess that they don't deserve...

I'm guessing he won't. Don't get me wrong, he deserves to die, but in the link, he almost seems defeated.

That's a good question and I can't think of any off the top of my head. UM's updates were always vague when they mentioned how certain criminals COULD receive the death penalty (like Cheryl Holland or Edward Harold Bell) but there was never any follow up.

I tend to go back and forth on the death penalty but with Oba Chandler, this is overdue.

Upon further research, I guess you could count Angel Maturino Resendiz, "The Railway Killer", who was excuted in 2006. While I've personally never seen it, UM apparently did a segment on a missing woman named Wendy Von Huben, who turned out to be one of his victims.

EDIT: Okay, I guess you can also add Kenneth McDuff to this list as well since Colleen Reed was one of his known victims. However, while Resendiz and McDuff were both serial killers who each murdered over a dozen people, I still believe Oba Chandler may be the first person to be executed exclusively for a crime featured on UM.
