i think if he just wanted to spare the girls, he wouldn't be more vicious with them compared to the boys. sick or not, he's a disgusting chauvinistic asshole.
I book marked this podcast because I thought it looked good.... Forgot about it for nearly a year and gave it a try a few months back. I was missing out, it's growing as one of my favorite podcasts. Two thumbs up!
buuuutt....he also said "bunny" so what do you expect? he's all of our family now, ma'am.
Love this podcast, bu the random and numerous ads are putting me off. M8ght have to give it a miss in the future.
blows my mind when a well known college professor and writer says "all the sudden". smh.

This woman is so woke, she wants to excuse this guy for slaughtering a family because…racism! 🙄
Great podcast
Great podcast, great stories. Seems like inhalation of the termite treatment is conceivable. Termite tents used to look like circus and were inviting to children. Chlordane could be mixed with hydrocarbons. Uneven pupils and fatige could show seizures.
I know this sounds weird, but given that the two girls must have ingested the poison at the time they were swimming with four other children and the fact that they may have been cognitively impaired, it makes me wonder if one of the other children had given the two of them something to drink, thinking it was funny. They might not have realized how dangerous it would be and then been too afraid to admit to it. Kids can get up to some pretty mean stuff.
Horse Thief: We know now about the functions of different parts of the brain. And that there is a part that governs risk assessment & self- restraint. If that was the part of William's brain that was damaged, could that have explained his rageful actions even if part of his brain let him recognize his behavior was not--for our culture & in his time--socially acceptable?
This is terrible. The woman host is TSTL, she clearly has no expertise - or even enough basic curiosity to delve in - in history (she's well below average by any measure) and their analysis is weak at best. Cringeworthy.
so many pellows! ❤️

A dirk is a type of Scottish dagger
I think they missed an obvious (and likely) possibility as to why the murders went unreported: In 1950's Georgia, communities of color had every reason to avoid interactions with law enforcement...

If George witnessed this going down, why didn't he alert someone right away??? I think George should was suspect.
Always race, always woke
Always interesting cases. Very well presented.
