A tragedy struck the Callahan family on June 28, 2021, when 57-year-old Scott Callahan was found dead in a pond in Massachusetts. The circumstances surrounding his death led to the arrest of his son, Jack Callahan, who was charged with his murder.
According to prosecutors, Jack was allegedly taking his father home after a night out when his mother, Wendy, informed him that Scott was intoxicated. This led to an altercation between the father and son, which escalated to a shocking turn of events.
Jack claimed that he believed his father was possessed by an alcoholic and demonic spirit named Dirty Dan. He reportedly attempted to perform an exorcism on Scott by dunking his head in the pond multiple times until he stopped struggling and eventually drowned.
The trial for Jack Callahan’s alleged involvement in his father’s murder began on April 8, 2024, at Plymouth County Superior Court. Throughout the proceedings, Jack has maintained his innocence, despite the evidence presented against him.
This heartbreaking case has left the family and community in shock, as they struggle to come to terms with the tragic loss of Scott Callahan. The trial will continue as the justice system works to uncover the truth behind this devastating incident.
