This week Beth and Wendy discuss the Waddell Buddhist Temple Massacre. It occurred in August of 1991 in Waddell, Arizona, and there were 9 victims, including 6 monks and a nun.
We dive into the setting (11:22), the killers early life (20:39) and the timeline (23:55). Then, we get into the investigation & arrest (28:03), "Where are they now?" (01:00:50) followed by our takeaways and what we think made the perp snap (01:03:04).
As usual we close out the show with some tips on how not to get murdered and our shout outs (01:13:57).
Thanks for listening! This is a weekly podcast and new episodes drop every Thursday, so until next time... look alive guys, it's crazy out there!
