The scene of the killings was a sprawling white colonial surrounded by a black-and-gold wrought-iron fence and owned by Russell Candela of Brooklyn, N.Y., and East Hampton, N.Y., the father of Chalem's fiance. Candela purchased the house in December for $1.1 million. His daughter, Kimberly Scarola, 39, her son, Jeffrey, 13, and Chalem moved into their new home in the beginning of the summer. Neither Scarola or her son was home at the time of the murders.
"What they're saying in the papers are lies," Candela has said, adding that his daughter loved Chalem and was devastated by the murders. "You didn't know him. He was a great guy, real strong."#reply-11766990
They way I read that was not that Chalem necessarily paid for the house. Indeed, East Hampton is not that inexpensive, and Candela could well have the money to pay for it, mortgage or no.
I am curious about what lies he refers to. Just what is his view of Chalem's character?
In the mean time, where is Sparky and Sophia? "Here boy. Come on girl." Are they already in Florida? |
