Summary

This week, in Gretna, Louisiana, a fun night of drinking somehow leads to an understandable argument with the babysitter, that inexplicably turns incredibly violent. It's a nasty, callous murder, and the only thing crazier is what happens when the legal system gets involved. This one is an extra helping of crazy... You've been warned!! Along the way, we find out what music brings older white people to a festival, how two strangers can instantly form a symphony of violence, and just how little intelligence a person can possess & still be put to death!!

Hosted by James Pietragallo & Jimmie Whisman
