Small Town Murder

This week, in Aberdeen, South Dakota, a happy go lucky world is turned upside down, when a local mother gets a phone call, telling her that her 19 year old son has been kidnapped, and only a large ransom can save him. When the the person collecting the ransom is caught, he has several tales, that no one believes. Was the kidnapped man in on the scheme? Is he alive, and hiding? Or, has he been horribly murdered, brutalized, and left for dead on some distant farm??? What we do know is that this whole thing turns into a mystery of epic proportions, but the final resolution explains it all!!

Along the way, we find out that not just Kansas loves The Wizard of Oz, that people with money don't have to extort people, and that you should never plot to kill the governor's family!!

Hosted by James Pietragallo and Jimmie Whisman

#334 - The Missing Blood Mystery - Grayson, Kentucky

2 Recommendations

This week, in Grayson, Kentucky, a troubled man with a rough history, gets out of prison, finds a girlfriend, and gets wasted. He drinks, smokes, and even takes horse tranquilizers, while surrounding himself with a not very wholesome group of people. One, night, he loses his mind, and tries to cook strange foods, trashes his mother's house, and threatens to kill his brother, but ends up doing far worse, later in the night. When police look into a window, they find him, with jewelry, hanging from his pocket, and a brutally murdered corpse. But did he do it, or is he the unluckiest man, who ever lived???

Along the way, we find out that Kentucky has a lot of caves, that whiskey & horse tranquilizers don't mix, and that some murders are so bad, that people feel like SOMEONE has to pay!!
