\u201cI buried them in their property,\u201d Lorenz Kraus, the son of Franz and Theresia Kraus \u2014 who disappeared without a trace in 2017 \u2014 said during a jaw-dropping exclusive interview with CBS6<\/a> on Thursday.<\/p>\n \u201cYou buried them in the back of your house in Albany?\u201d CBS6\u2019s Greg Floyd asked.<\/p>\n \u201cYes.\u201d Kraus, 53, chillingly answered. <\/p>\n Lorenz Krauz admitted on-camera to killing his elderly parents and burying their bodies in the backyard of their Albany home.

A second body was found on Thursday. <\/p>\n \u201cYou suffocated them? You suffocated your parents,\u201d Floyd asked as a series of stammering back and forths, where Kraus tried to backpedal on the confession and invoke his \u201cFifth Amendment rights.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYeah, basically,\u201d Kraus said, nodding.<\/p>\n \u201cMy father, after he died, my mother put his head on his chest, and after a few hours, I finished her,\u201d Kraus said.<\/p>\n He then detailed that he had choked his father with his hand, then strangled his mother with a rope.<\/p>\n It then took him several days to decide to bury the bodies in the backyard, he explained.<\/p>\n Kraus was arrested immediately after the chilling on-camera confession.
