Man Murdered His Sister’s Boyfriend For Inheritance Then Tried To Dismember And Burn Body
In a probable-cause document filed Oct. 10 by the Clark County Sheriff’s Office, 35-year-old Logan Melchert is charged with killing then-38-year-old Khalid al-Hassan sometime near the end of July 2023.
According to the document, Al-Hassan was reported missing by his mother on Aug. 8 after she traveled from New Jersey to Vancouver after she hadn’t heard from her son for about two weeks.
Al-Hassan had been living with Melchert and Melchert’s sister in a home on Northwest Overlook Drive.
The Melchert sibling’s father Mark had also lived there before he died earlier in 2023.
The document states that Al-Hassan’s mother had been in contact with Melchert’s sister as she spent “weeks” in a Seattle hospital.
When Al-Hassan’s mother asked Melchert where her son was, Melchert told her that he hadn’t seen Al-Hassan for about two weeks.
