More than two weeks before their bodies were discovered, on February 11, prosecutors claim Casap shot and killed his parents.
According to officials, after telling a female classmate about the plan to kill the couple, the 17-year-old “fantasized” about killing his parents and ending his own life.
According to the investigation, surveillance footage showed a camera aimed at Donald Mayer’s body, which was covered in cushions and blankets.
Videos purportedly showed Casap entering the room to “keep candles lit,” even glancing into the camera and stating, “so you can see him there.” The (crap) disgusting body is literally visible there,” FOX 6 said.
Before being taken into custody in a rural area of northwest Kansas on February 23, investigators say he fled the house in his parents’ SUV and traveled through Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska, Wyoming, and Colorado.
