From Disney to Death Row: The Oba Chandler Case That Shocked Florida

From Disney to Death Row: The Oba Chandler Case That Shocked FloridaWhen Joan Rogers and her two teenage daughters took a wrong turn after their Disney vacation, they ended up in Tampa instead of heading home to Ohio. What should have been a simple request for directions turned into one of the most horrific crimes in Florida history. This is the story of how a charming stranger with a boat lured a grieving family into trusting him, and how his own handwriting eventually became the key to solving their murders.We'll explore the man behind the monster - Oba Chandler, whose father's suicide when he was ten seemed to break something that never got fixed. From stealing cars as a teenager to escalating violent crimes as an adult, his path to becoming a predator was paved with red flags that society missed. You'll hear how a family vacation meant to help heal trauma became a tragedy that destroyed three lives, and how investigators spent three years chasing dead ends before a billboard campaign finally brought their killer to justice.This case has everything that makes true crime both fascinating and heartbreaking - the randomness of evil, the power of evidence, and the determination of people who refuse to let monsters win. Joan, Michelle, and Christe Rogers deserved to come home from their vacation. Instead, they became the victims of a man who saw other people as nothing more than objects for his twisted pleasure.#ObaChandler #RogersFamilyMurders #TampaBayMurders #TrueCrimePodcast #SerialKillerCase #FloridaMurders #DeathRowInmate🔔 Subscribe for Weekly True Crime CasesNever miss a story.
