A Las Vegas man warned his father in chilling text messages that he was afraid of his “sick” stepfather shortly before he was shot and killed along with his mother.
Evan ‘Sergei’ Scoggins, 20, told his biological father Andrew that “things won’t be good for me” if he doesn’t get a student loan to go to university in another of his disturbing messages, obtained exclusively by DailyMail. com.
Evan urged his father to “sign the loan” to help him get out of the house, and other messages detailed Groschen’s erratic behavior that made his life “hell.”
He repeatedly warned about the warning signs displayed by his stepfather Karl Groschen, 44, the new husband of his mother Anastasiya Akutsina-Groschen, 44, in the months before he killed them both in October.
Evan told how Groschen “destroyed (Anastasiya’s) office, knocking everything off the shelves, books and boxes” in a fit of rage, and went into a frenzy when his mother told family members “about his mental state in deterioration”.
Andrew recalled this week to DailyMail.com: “Evan was a loving boy, he was always smiling, but there was a change… He would have done anything to get out of that house.”
The alleged murders of Evan and Anastasiya made headlines last month when Groschen was seen in chilling police body camera footage calmly admitting to shooting his wife and stepson in October and telling officers, “You have to arrest me.” .
Groschen, seen on body camera with a drink can and two bottles of pills, claimed he shot them both in self-defense, an accusation that Andrew told DailyMail.com left him “disgusted.”
Evan’s father and Anastasiya’s ex-husband Andy Scoggins (pictured with Evan as a child) said the deaths left him devastated and called for “cowardly” Groschen to face the death penalty if convicted.

Andrew shared the chilling correspondence his son sent him in the months leading up to the shooting, including begging him to sign a student loan application otherwise “things won’t be right for me.”

In messages shared with DailyMail.com, Evan warned his father about Groschen’s alleged erratic behavior around the house, with one text detailing how he “destroyed (Anastasiya’s) office, knocking everything off the shelves, books and boxes.” “.

Groschen’s wife, Anastasiya Akutsina-Groschen, 44, and stepson Segei Scoggins, 20, were killed in the home after neighbors heard an argument followed by gunshots.
“He seemed to me to be a calm, serene, calculating and manipulative man,” he said.
Scoggins, who lives in Hanoi, Vietnam, said he was married to Anastasiya for seven years and that she met Groschen on a dating app after their divorce.
She said their relationship had a severe impact on her son’s life, as Groschen intended to control and manipulate his new family, according to Andrew.
In messages shared with DailyMail.com, Evan repeatedly warned about the red flags Groschen was exhibiting at his Nevada home, including a chilling encounter just two months before the shooting.
“My stepdad just had another episode,” Evan texted.
“When he was around me he would just randomly say, ‘Evan is wrong,'” the text read.
‘I asked, ‘About what?’ He said, ‘Everything.’
In other text messages, Evan shared how Groschen would get “angry” over small details in their lives, and even became angry at attempts to tip a waiter.

In another message sent just a month before the shooting, Evan told his father that Groschen had told him he was “wrong about everything.”

In other texts, Evan shared details of how Groschen attempted to “control” their lives, even becoming angry over attempts to tip a waiter.

He shared chilling details of the ‘hell’ at his Nevada home

Groschen and Anastasiya shared a young child, who was seen on police body camera footage by his father admitting to the deaths. The boy was taken in by Child Protective Services after the shooting.
Andrew said his son was previously scheduled to attend the University of Nebraska on a scholarship, but Groschen blocked the move because he intended to “control” their lives.
In another message between Andrew and a friend, they noted that Evan, 20, was “trying to gain weight and muscle,” but Groschen intended to block even that.
“It seems that Karl was trying to prevent Evan from eating three square meals a day,” the text adds.
“I still can’t believe why Anastasiya stayed,” Andrew said this week. ‘I can’t understand it.
‘Evan was forced to be there…he had a scholarship at Nebraska, but he had to move to Nevada. That was Karl.
“The texts show the dysfunction in that home.”
It comes as a judge ruled this week that Groschen is competent to stand trial, and prosecutors indicated they will seek the death penalty, aiming to carry out the first execution in Nevada since 2006.
Andrew harshly criticized the Henderson Police Department for not conducting a toxicology report even though Groschen was seen with pill bottles at the time of his arrest.
Andrew said this led to a disturbing theory that Groschen may have planned to use the pills in his defense, and that the lack of a toxicology report would possibly hamper Andrew’s hopes of receiving the death penalty.
—Did you take medication before the police arrived, in anticipation of your arrest? he questioned.
‘In the appeal process, that will be in your defense. Death penalty cases receive many, many appeals. “Just having that toxicology is a box checked.”

Karl Groschen, 41, was seen on police body camera footage coldly admitting to killing his wife and stepson at their home in Henderson, Nevada, on October 11, telling officers: “You have to arrest me.” Behind him you can see his five-year-old son.

Prosecutors released this image of a gun found near the car where Anastasiya’s body was found.

Anastasiya’s body was discovered in the driver’s seat of the family car in the garage, while Sergei was found in the laundry room. Both suffered multiple gunshot wounds.
The night Anastasiya and Evan were shot to death, neighbors called police to Groschen’s home after hearing an argument in the garage followed by gunshots.
Groschen was seen chillingly admitting to shooting his family as soon as cops arrived, telling an officer about the bodies inside. When the police officer responds, “Who are they?”, Groschen responds, “My wife and my stepson.”
The five-year-old disabled son Groschen shared with Anastasiya appeared in the footage when officers questioned the father about what happened, as he claimed the deaths occurred in self-defense.
“I thought they were trying to kill me,” Groschen said as he was handcuffed. “You have to take me.”
A police report from the Henderson Police Department concluded that there was no evidence to support Groschen’s claim that his wife and stepson were trying to kill him.

Andrew, seen with Evan during his childhood, said his son died a “hero” when he walked back into the Groschen home to check on his mother and stepbrother after they shot each other.
Anastasiya’s body was found in the driver’s seat of her car in the garage, while Evan’s body was found in the laundry room of the house.
Witnesses reportedly said they saw Evan run back to the house after his mother was shot first, which Andrew told DailyMail.com showed the heroic final moments of his son trying to protect his mother. and his young stepbrother.
“Evan refused to leave,” she said. “He ran back to his mother and his little half-brother, and he paid the ultimate price for that… That’s my son.”
