True Crime Tuesday: The Todt Family Murders

  Walt Disney World in Florida is known for creating immersive experiences for everyone and that includes building idyllic communities for area residents. Unfortunately, one such community, Celebration, was the site of a gruesome family murder. This was where Anthony Todt (44) murdered his entire family and later confessed to the crime. Murder Runs in the Todt Family When Anthony Todt was just four years old, he became familiar with murder through his father’s actions. In 1980, the senior Todt, Robert, had been having an affair and had plans to marry his mistress. To avoid a divorce that would prolong his engagement to his new bride, Robert, a college professor, hired one of his students to murder his wife, Loretta Todt. The murder-for-hire scheme didn’t go exactly as planned. The one thing the killer did get right was that he’d been ordered by Robert to leave his son, Anthony, unharmed. While the killer did shoot Loretta for the $800 sum, the shot was fortunately not fatal. Lore
