    The New Jersey Mansion Murders, Part Two

    In part two of the New Jersey Mansion Murders, Joseph Scott Morgan explains how investigators determined the fire in the mansion is actually arson to coverup the brutal murders of Keith and his family. The fire at Paul Caneiro's home is quickly determined to be arson and Paul Caneiro is arrested the day after the fire. Paul Caneiro's wife and adult daughters think he is a hero for waking them up and getting them out of the house safely and vow to testify on his behalf.  A few days after Paul Caneiro is charged with setting fire to his own home, he is charged with the murder of his brother and Keith Caneiro's family. Prosecutors say Paul Caneiro was motivated by greed.  Three days before the killings, Keith Caneiro told his father-in-law, Vlassis Karidis, that Paul had stolen $90,000 from the children's college funds, and that he was planning to cut off the $225,000 salary that Paul drew from a family business.  Autopsies show that Keith, Jennifer, and Jesse Caneiro all died instantly, but Sophia lived for 9 hours and died from smoke inhalation. This has led Sophia Caneiro's maternal grandfather, Vlassis Karidis, to file a wrongful death lawsuit against Paul Caneiro.  Because Sophia survived her parents, she inherited their estates and died intestate, passing the estates to her grandparents, and Karidis has standing to bring the claim.   Transcribe Highlights 00:02.96 Introduction Part Two, New Jersey Mansion Murders 04:53.02 Shooting adults, stabbing the children, 8 and 11 10:17.82 Keith Caneiro shot in head and lower back 15:06.25 Projectile investigation 20:17.30 Fire started in early morning,  not reported until after 12 noon 25:45.68 Fire Hose would go right over a body in the yard if needed 30:28.94 When door opens, fire hit with oxygen 35:04.17 20 different fire companies involved for hours to put out mansion fire 40:15.09 Investigators knew the scene was more than just a fire 47:02.93 Autopsy determines Sophia lived 9 hours, died from smoke inhalation 49:41.57 Conclusion - waiting for trial  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    The New Jersey Mansion Murders, Part One

    Paul and Ketih Caneiro are brothers and business partners. They live 10 minutes from one another in New Jersey and on November 20, 2018,  both of their homes were on fire.  About 5 a.m. the police received a report of a fire burning at 27 Tilton Drive in Ocean Township, Paul Caneiro's home.  Arriving on the scene police and fire fighters find Paul, his wife, and two adult daughters , all safe outside the home.  In the first hours of the investigation officials determine the fire at Paul Caneiro's home appears to have been intentionally set and gas cans are found on the premises. While the investigation is taking place at Paul Caneiro's home, a fire is reported at the home of Keith Caneiro.  While the fire at Paul Caneiro's home consisted of two fires near the perimeter of the home,  the fire at Keith Caneiro's home takes 20 fire companies hours to get under control.  Investigators quickly discover the fire at Keith Caneiro's mansion was staged to cover up the murder of Keith Caneiro, his wife, Jennifer, and their two young children, Jesse, 11 and Sophia, 8.  Keith's body is found in the front yard, dead from multiple gunshot wounds to the head and back.  The body of Jennifer Caneiro is found inside the house with a gunshot wound to the head and multiple stab wounds.
