Where Is Youssef Khater Now? Netflix docuseries Worst Roommate Ever features the story of Youssef Khater. He deceived and frauded people for years and mostly got away with it.
Khater is a Palestinian-Danish marathon runner who lived in a 12-bed hostel in Chile. He claimed to have been sponsored to run the length of Chile to set a record. The $8000 and sponsorship were genuine, but he accepted the money without running.
The third episode of Netflix’s docuseries Worst Roommate Ever featured Youssef’s scams. The episodes depict the horrors of having terrible roommates, as well as stories of con artists, murders, and checks that were illegally cashed. It first aired on March 1, 2022.
Worst Roommate Ever: Is Youssef Khater On Wikipedia?
Youssef Khater from Worst Roommate Ever is not on Wikipedia, but there are a few Wiki-bio pages about the charismatic “con artist.”
He claimed to have worked as a youth football trainer, athlete, and member of the Danish military. He has been labeled an international con man who used his charisma and skills to defraud people.
Youssef not only took the sponsorship money without running the marathon, but he also scammed his roommates. He took $38000 and $12000 in athletic gear from British runner Dominic Rayner, reports Decider.
He also targeted his other roommate, Callie Quinn. He committed to showing her a new apartment and later used a toilet seat to hit her head. Youssef even buried her alive as Callie told a friend that he owed her money.
She survived, and he was later arrested and admitted to attacking her. The cause kept getting more complicated due to its international nature. He got extradited to Denmark from Chile.
