Summary

The 2003 Murder Of Robert Kissel By His Wife Nancy And The 2006 Unsolved Murder Of His Brother Andrew Kissel [Part 1 of 6]

The Kissel boys were born and raised in what we used to think of as the quintessential American family...like something you’d watch on some wholesome sitcom. They were as competitive as they were ambitious and those qualities would take both brothers on their very own, unique successful journeys in life. But the younger of the two, Robert, he always seemed to have a bit of an edge on older brother Andrew...he was taller, more athletic, more popular, more social, friendly...things simply came easier. Robert was the brother who followed the rules...he maneuvered wisely, cautiously, thoughtfully. Andrew preferred the quick and easy...the fastest way to winning, even if it wasn’t exactly the right way. It didn’t matter because getting to the finish line first was the only thing that mattered. The irony is the manner in which both of these brothers would come to meet an equally tragic end...three years and thousands of miles apart in ways and for reasons that, to this day remain mysterious and nearly impossible to reconcile...this is a special vacation series presentation of Killafornia dreaming...the tale of the Kissel Family Curse…
