Summary

Reginald Brooks was paranoid, thinking co-workers and family members were poisoning him. He was exhibiting signs of mental illness. His family tried to get him to seek help but he refused. Two days after his wife served him with divorce papers he murdered the couple's three sons.

Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the most despicable act that any father can commit. The evidence against Brooks was overwhelming but he would never admit to the crime. Many believe that he actually came to believe he was innocent. He had his own wild theories about who committed the murders.
