away the officer has no idea that a head is boiling in the pot on that stove it's the same head of the woman they're looking for Lisa guy and at this point it's been cooking for over a day in the bathroom they find two bins of human limbs soaking in a toxic mixture the suspect behind this gruesome scene is Joelle guy Jr and the human remains marinating in this concoction belong to his parents Joel and Lisa Guy this is the story of the boy who boiled his mom and dad right after Thanksgiving dinner it's March
13 1988 and Joel guy Jr is Born the only child of Joel guy senior and his wife Lisa relatives call the boy Joel Michael to distinguish him from his dad who also has three other daughters from a previous marriage who are much older it's a happy blended family that will spend their time together at a manicured sprawling home on Golden View Lane in West Knox Tennessee now Joel Michael is not an outgoing kid he isn't really a standout student either when he attends the Louisiana School for Math Science and the Arts after he graduates in
2006 he spends a semester at George Washington University before dropping out and switching to LSU there he studies plastic surgery but ultimately withdraws in 2015 instead deciding to live a laid-back lifestyle tucked away playing video games in his Baton Rouge apartment Joel Michael spends nine years in this cycle regularly changing colleges switching degrees until 2016 his parents make an announcement they tell they're now 28 year old son that they are cutting him off see Joel senior and Lisa who've been married for 31 years are selling the home on Golden View Lane so they can retire
closer to the rest of their family they're no longer going to finance Junior's lifestyle and he has until the end of the year December to get his life and finances back in order however the clock isn't just ticking for Joel Michael to get his life together see his mom and dad have a timeline as well but there's instant death November 24th Thanksgiving day it'll be the last dinner and the guy home that is before Joel senior and Lisa move 90 miles away to their new Mountain View home there the family will come together again to
celebrate Christmas next month but they'll never make it because today Joel Michael is putting his evil plan into effect he drives all the way from Baton Rouge to the family home in West Knox Tennessee and his half-sisters are also in town with their families to celebrate the holiday they all enjoy dinner in the golden view home for one final time and everything seems normal there's no hint of the horrors that are about to go down in just 48 hours it's Saturday November 26th and Joel Michael is the last guest left at the house his half-sisters
having left the day before his mom Lisa is out buying groceries while his dad Joel senior is upstairs in the home gym quietly Junior slinks up the steps and ambushes his father armed with a knife and like a madman he stabs him again and again all over his body the 61 year old knocks over the treadmill desperately trying to defend himself but he slashed 40 times the ceiling and walls are sprayed in red as Joelle senior's life drains out of him the attack is grisly violent and wildly chaotic however even after his dad is dead
the horrors continue Junior dismembers his body and tosses each limb on the Crimson soaked carpet floor Joel Michael then sits and waits for his mom to return home when Lisa walks through the front door she's carrying the groceries and she has no idea what's already happened on the second floor nor does she know that she's next as the unsuspecting mom heads upstairs Junior jumps out and starts wildly attacking her he wails on his mom with such force that she breaks nine ribs the 55 year old is stabbed over three dozen times until she's left lifeless
as if this isn't disturbing enough Joel Jr proceeds to use his bare hands to snap and his mother's head is decapitated from her spine he proceeds to place it in a water-filled pot and then turns on the stove just like Dad Lisa's body is also dismembered before Joel Jr takes his parents and places them in two 45 gallon bins they're filled up with strong chemicals capable of dissolving pretty much anything and Joel Michael pierces the skin to make the process go by even faster when Monday arrives and Lisa who's known as extremely responsible doesn't show
up to work her colleagues get worried and give her a phone call she doesn't pick up so they call the police to do a welfare check and when they arrive at the home on Golden View Lane they see the two Guy family cars parked outside in the driveway they peek through the glass on the front door and see what appears to be groceries strewn across the hallway on the other side of the house the back door is missing the handle and out through is coming a strong smell a mixture of chemicals and perhaps something decaying
a deputy then retrieves the garage door opener from one of the cars and as they make their way inside the home what they see is appalling the floors and walls are all splattered in red and lying on the floor is a hand not connected to anyone before they can get any further they're overtaken by the intense fumes and heat swirling about inside so they make a call to the Sheriff's Department requesting for backup they ask for some hazmat suits to protect them from this poisonous air as a few of the officers are already getting sick
once back inside a maroon Trail leads investigators to a haunting scene there are two giant rubber Vats filled with body parts floating in some sort of acid only one of the torsos still has a head and when it's lifted up all that's left is bone the other head is found boiling in a pot on the kitchen stove and it belongs to Lisa guy throughout the home there's an array of chemicals bleach hydrogen peroxide sewer cleaner and acid all mixed with the stench of death several weapons are also discovered knives a sledgehammer scissors and a hacksaw
each covered in dark magenta the thermostat is also set to 90 degrees further adding to the already unbearable atmosphere inside investigators also find a notebook it's an explicit step-by-step guide with reminders such as turn up head as high as it goes dash speeds up decomposition flush chunks down the toilet not the garbage disposal how to base their bodies to accelerate tissue breakdown and bring blender and food grinder Dash grind meat the booklet is in Joel Michael's writing and each chapter is more disturbing than the next as you realize just how well thought out this plan
is the manual that prosecutors later call the book of premeditation also list a motive see Joel Jr wanted to cash out on his mother's half a million dollar life insurance policy and in a section of the Diary called assets he writes money mine I get the whole thing basically he's implying that if he kills his dad too he doesn't have to split the policy apparently though Joel Michael doesn't read the fine print of his mom's policy but more on that in a moment and trust me you're going to want to hear it this Sinister Journal
also reveals Junior's plans to frame his dad for the murder he writes that he'll remove his dad's hands and use them to cover up his fingerprints then he'll plant some of the skin under his mom's fingernails so none of this ties back to him but despite these cold calculated efforts Joel guy Jr is arrested and charged with two counts of premeditated murderer and three counts of felony murderer along with two counts of disturbing a corpse he pleads not guilty and the trial begins in September 2020. State prosecutors warn that because of the graphic details of
this case it'll be unlike any other trial in U.S history and as the specific sort of discussed in appalling images are displayed several family members are forced to step outside of the courtroom the jury's shown a sickening 30-minute video of the crime scene along with the photos of Joelle and Lisa guy meanwhile Junior smirks Smiles even yawns while in court he shows absolutely no remorse appearing as though he's proud of his work when prosecutors present the murder manuscript the defense argues that it can't be his because there are no fingerprints found on the book however
over the course of a four day trial 700 pieces of evidence are admitted and Joel guy Jr is found guilty on all counts he receives five life sentences with the possibility of Parole in 51 years man is not and should not be getting out anytime soon I mean his parents literally supported him for years and he shows his appreciation by trying to kill them for some life insurance money luckily though he's incompetent enough to leave behind an entire book of evidence and not to read the fine print on his mom's policy which clearly specifies that
he isn't a beneficiary so say Joel Jr had killed her and somehow managed to get away with it the insurance company wouldn't have sent him any money in other words he did this whole thing for nothing [Music]
