As Matthew Hoffman neared his 30th birthday, his life was falling apart. Friends and neighbors described him as odd and he had already completed a lengthy prison stretch. He couldn't keep a job and was constantly broke. He made the fateful decision to rob a house and this decision led to him committing three murders and kidnapping a 13-year-old girl.

Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss this harrowing murder case from our home state of Ohio. What was it with Hoffman's fascination with leaves? Is this a clue into his mental illness that may have contributed to the evil acts he committed? The details of the murders and what Hoffman chose to do with the bodies are unbelievable. His kidnapping victim survived but lost most of her family and will have to live with what happened to her for the rest of her life.
