Todt is accused of murdering his wife Megan and three children: 13-year-old Alek, 11-year-old Tyler and 4-year-old Zoe, and the family dog.

He was arrested in his home in January. Osceola County deputies went to the home on Jan. 13 to serve a warrant for Todt for insurance fraud related to his work as physical therapist in Connecticut.

Investigators with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services first located Todt when he was wanted for health care fraud. They described him as barely able to walk, and mumbling.

A short time later, his family members were found upstairs.

Autopsies show they’d been stabbed and had large amounts of Benadryl in their bodies. Photos show knives found in the house along with packages of Benadryl, children’s books and a certificate for Alek which showed Todt coached his team.

Investigators said Todt confessed to the murders. However, he told the woman on the phone he loved his wife and children to the end.

“Just so you know I couldn’t take the love out of loving her. I wanted you to know,” he says on the phone call.
