Summary

You've seen the movie. And if you haven't, you should. In this episode former cop Kendra Jrama breaks down the real life story of what happened to the DeFeo family in Amityville New York in November in 1974, which left every member of the family shot in the back of the head. That is of course, for the eldest son who found the bodies, and was later charged with all their murders. But what happened? Did the devil make him do it? Did he catch his sister Dawn in the act? Was it a mob hit? So many apocryphal stories have built up around the outrageous family annihilation that it's almost impossible to decipher what is real and what is clickbait. Jon spent 6 years working inside a prison with murderers of all kinds and Kendra started homicide investigations as a law enforcement officer, and both have had it up to here with BS sensationalized podcasts.
