Summary

Linwood, James Jr, and Anthony Briley were 3 brothers from the Richmond, VA area that would terrorize that city during a seven month stretch of 1979. They, along with a fourth accomplice Duncan Meekins, committed a serious of brutal crimes. They started off selecting their victims at random which enhanced the level of terror. But selecting victims closer to home is what led to their eventual capture.

Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the Briley gang and the reign of terror that they inflicted upon the city of Richmond. It is still considered one of that city's most infamous crime sprees. What would make three brothers from what seemed to be a stable family head down such a dark path? Even when you think this case is over, it's not. Two of the brothers make a daring escape from death row and go on the lam.
