In the quiet town of Beggs, Oklahoma, the tranquility was shattered on September 7, 2019, with the discovery of a grim scene. Jack Randall Chandler, a 65-year-old man, was found deceased in his home. He was not alone; his wife, 69-year-old Evelyn Kaye Chandler, and their 43-year-old daughter, Tiffany Eichor, were also victims of the brutal triple homicide.
The family had been fatally shot, a violent end to their lives that would unravel a complex and disturbing story.
The investigation into the murders brought to light a history of violence and fear that had plagued Tiffany Eichor. Prior to her death, she had been the victim of a violent assault by her ex-boyfriend, Barry Roland Titus II. The attack was severe, resulting in a torn aorta, a lacerated liver, and broken ribs. Titus was charged in connection with this assault, but while out on bond, the case faced numerous delays. Fearing for her safety, Tiffany had sought refuge at her parents' home in the countryside of Okmulgee County.
Nearly 18 months after the killings, a significant breakthrough in the case led to the arrests of two individuals. Barry Roland Titus II and his former attorney, Keegan Kelley Harroz, were charged with three counts of first-degree murder. Prosecutors allege that Harroz, who had become Titus's lover, was involved in intimidating Tiffany before the murders. The case against the duo has been marked by numerous legal delays, with a trial not expected to commence until 2026. The prosecution has announced its intention to seek the death penalty for both defendants. The prolonged legal process has been a source of immense pain and frustration for the surviving family members, who continue to await justice for the loss of their loved ones.
