Chad O’Melia: “Deaf to Justice” | MURDERISH Ep. 139

On a warm Southern California night in 2018, 23-year-old Vini Oliveira arrived home from working the late shift. He was greeted by two smiling faces - his roommate 26-year-old Chad O’melia and his new love interest, 27-year-old Bryn Spejcher. As Vini headed upstairs for bed, he left Chad and Bryn snuggling and laughing amongst themselves on the couch. After taking a shower and slipping into bed, Vini heard loud noises, and then screams, coming from downstairs. As he made his way down to the first floor, Vini could scarcely believe what he saw. A homicide investigation ensued as many people remained shocked over how a happy night amongst new lovers could turn so quickly into a nightmare. Follow Jami on Instagram & TikTok @JamiOnAir.
