On September 7, 2019, Tiffany Eichor, 43, was found shot to death in her Beggs, Oklahoma, home alongside her parents, Jack and Evelyn Kaye Chandler. The scene showed signs of a forced entry: the front door had been kicked in and the house’s power and telephone lines were cut. All three victims suffered multiple gunshot wounds from at least two different calibers.

Investigators focused on Tiffany’s ex-boyfriend, Barry Titus II, who had a protective order against him after Tiffany accused him of a prior assault. Authorities say surveillance captured two figures, a taller and a shorter, approaching the house in the early morning and that the power was cut before the intruders entered. Titus’s DNA was reportedly found on a ball cap near the home, and a rifle turned over by an associate and linked by ballistics produced shell casings matching those at the scene.

In April 2021 both Barry Titus and defense attorney Keegan Harroz were charged with three counts of first-degree murder and one count of first-degree burglary; prosecutors announced plans to seek the death penalty. What details about motive or planning remain unclear to readers?
