Chandler’s daughter says mother watched victims’ homes before murders

By Rose Gruenbacher

WESTMORELAND — A woman accused of murdering her ex-husband and his fiancée watched the victims’ houses and confronted them before their deaths, according to her daughter.

Hailey Seel, the adult daughter of Michael Sisco and Dana Chandler, continued her testimony Friday in Chandlers trial for the double-murder of Sisco and his fiancée, Karen Harkness, in July 2002.

Chandler is charged with killing Sisco and Harkness in Topeka, but she’s in court in Pottawatomie County with local jurors after a Shawnee County District Court judge granted a change of venue for her third trial. Chandler, who is representing herself after firing her defense attorneys before opening statements, was convicted in 2012, but an appeals court overturned it in 2018, and her second trial ended in a hung jury in 2022.
