Summary

Hey guys, here is another show I produce for Evergreen Podcasts. Crime Capsule is a mix of NPR-style hosting with true crime and history sprinkled throughout. If you haven't listened yet, check it out. Thanks, Bill From railroad towns like Ladore to cow towns like Newton and Wichita, southeast Kansas pulsed with rowdy activity during the late nineteenth century. The unruly atmosphere drew outlaws, including the Dalton Gang, and even crazed serial killers, the likes of the Bender clan. Violent incidents, from gunfights to lynchings, punctuated the region's Wild West era, and the allure of the frontier also attracted the everyday people whose passions sometimes spawned bloodshed as well. Award-winning author Larry E. Wood explores thirteen of these remarkable episodes in the criminal history of southeast Kansas. Buy HERE Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Music Welcome back to Crime Capsule. I'm your host, Benjamin Morris. Sometimes it's said that marriage changes a person. They become more secure, more bold, more willing to take risks if they

know that their spouse loves them. There's a good bit of truth in this, the way that

1:36.4

loving couples uphold one another and encourage each other. But it's also said
