The history of Beverly Therrein's family
As per Oxygen, Beverly Therrien first got married in 1963 to a man named Andrew Bednarz, who was recently divorced at the time. The couple stayed together for the next two decades and had two children named Brett and Candace Therrien.
In 1983, Beverly got separated from Andy. She went on to remarry and got divorced two more times. Andrew started living with his son, Brett Bednarz, in Beverly's apartment.
It was during the late 1990s that the Fatal Family Feuds subject Beverly Therrien moved back to her own house, where Andrew and Brett were still living. As per the landlord-tenant agreement, she installed a locked door at the bottom of the stairs.
However, the locked door contributed to Andrew Bednarz's death. As reported by Oxygen, on September 15, 2010, Andrew suffered from a severe heart attack while mowing the lawn. However, the locked door became a major obstruction, preventing him from calling for help.
As per Kris Raiman, the children Candy and Brett started to blame their mother completely for the death of Andrew Bednarz.
The investigation behind the triple homicide of Fatal Family Feuds subjects
When the Hartford Police Department started the investigation, Beverly's son Brett refused to speak with the investigators without an attorney, as per Oxygen. This raised major suspicion among the authorities. However, Candace provided her testimony, revealing that she didn't know Beverly's two tenants, Michael Ramsey and Pamela Johns.
As per Oxygen, Pamela Johns's son, Mike Tillotson, revealed he was completely sure that Beverly's son, Brett, had contributed to the murders.
“All they had to do was make sure that Beverly was taken care of", Mike said.
He further revealed that Brett Bednarz would often roam around the neighborhood of Beverly's Naomi Drive residence, blaming his mother for Andrew's death. Mike added:
"He's a monster. He's not a good person. I knew right away who was responsible."
Additionally, the authorities discovered that both of the siblings were highly furious with their mother since Andrew had left all of his property to Beverly.
As reported by Kris Raiman, six months before the murder, Brett Bednarz attacked his mother at her residence and was arrested. As per a report by Hartford Courant, Beverly herself bailed her son out and arranged a restraining order for her safety.

Brett Bednarz was found guilty of murder
As per Oxygen, when the investigators retrieved DNA evidence from the crime scene, they found Brett's DNA scattered all over the residence. Investigators found the cell phones of Michael Ramsey and Pamela Johns in a white sedan that belonged to Candace's daughter, Tiffany.
However, the breakthrough in the case arrived in 2012, when a bloody tissue collected from the crime scene contained the DNA samples of both Brett Bednarz and Michael Ramsey.
With the set of evidence, Brett Bednarz was arrested for the murders of Beverly Therrien, Michael Ramsey, and Pamela Johns on October 15, 2012.The trial began in May 2015, when attorneys revealed that the bloody tissue was left when Ramsey tried to defend himself from the murderer.
During the second trial of Brett Bednarz in January 2016, prosecutors provided Beverly's checkbook, which had Brett's DNA, and a check for him dated November 21, 2010. This proved that the Fatal Family Feuds' culprit also violated the restraining order.
Brett Bednarz was found guilty of the murder of Beverly Therrien, Michael Ramsey, and Pamela Johns. He was sentenced to 60 years imprisonment for each murder in March 2016. As per Fox News, the culprit is currently serving a sentence of 180 years for the triple murders.
