Daniel Halseth was Murdered by his Daughter and her Boyfriend in 2021

According to an obituary, Daniel Halseth died on April 1, 2021. However, news reports show that it was quite a tragic death involving his youngest child, Sierra Halseth, and her boyfriend who stabbed and dismembered his body.

The body was discovered after firefighters were called to put out a fire in the garage of Halseth’s Dunphy Court home in Las Vegas.

Taking a slow look into the final moments of Halseth, he was stabbed 70 times before his body was dismembered. His neck, head, and torso had suffered wounds made by sharp force.

On closer examination, it was discovered that Halseth was having marital issues that led to divorce.

Sierra, the youngest of his three children took advantage of this and pleaded to stay with her father. However, she got involved in a relationship with 18-year-old Aaron Guerrero which her father did not approve of.

The romantic relationship between the two was more sinister than everyone thought. They planned how to rob their parents and move to Los Angeles. However, Halseth discovered the plan and he stopped Sierra from seeing Aaron.

This move made the lovebirds move to another plan-killing Daniel. To make it work, on April 8, the two were seen buying a chainsaw, a handsaw, and lighter fluid.

Having completed that part, Sierra and Aaron killed and mutilated Daniel.

Through this act, Sierra became one of several children who kill their parents for one absurd reason or the other. Other recorded cases include:

  • Lyle and Erik Menendez who killed their parents Jose and Kitty Menendez in 1989
  • Alan Hruby of Oklahoma who murdered his parents, John and Tinker Hruby, as well as his little sister, Katherine in 2014
  • Andrew Wamsley of Texas who killed his parents Rick and Suzanne Wamsley in 2003
  • Anthony Bluml who murdered his adoptive parents, Roger and Melissa Bluml

The Culprits Fled After Killing Halseth…

Following the heinous crime, they set fire to his garage before fleeing to Salt Lake City.

To make matters worse, the culprits made videos of themselves fleeing from the police which they shared on their Youtube channel. In the videos, they mocked the police for not catching them three days after committing the crime while Sienna can be seen laughing.

…and were Finally Arrested in Salt Lake City

After mocking the police for days, the pair were finally apprehended on April 17 in Salt Lake City. Reports show they were caught deboarding a light rail without buying tickets. Following this, the transit officers at the scene ran a background check on them and it revealed they were wanted for a murder in Vegas.

They were taken into custody and charged with murder with a deadly weapon, fraudulent use of a credit card, and conspiracy to commit a robbery.

Daniel Halseth’s Daughter, Sierra was Prosecuted as an Adult

Considering the heinous nature of the crime, Halseth’s then 16-year-old daughter was prosecuted as an adult.

Sierra and Guerrero were tried in court and they pled guilty. They changed their plea at some point during the trial.

Regardless, they were found guilty and sentenced to prison with the possibility of parole after 22 years.

Where are Halseth’s Murderers Now?

As of this writing, Sierra is alive and serving her prison sentence at the Florence McClure Women’s Correctional Center in North Las Vegas.

Like Sierra, Guerrero is also behind bars serving his prison sentence at High Desert State Prison.

Before he was moved to prison, Guerrero apologized for his part in Halseth’s murder while Sierra did not. He also revealed that he was taking LSD at the time and if he was not, he may not have committed the crime.

Guerrero also hopes to show the Halseth family that he is a better person if he ever leaves prison.
