#479 - Born To Be Bad - Wheeling, West Virginia

This week, in Wheeling, West Virginia, a man, who seems to be made for crime, works his way up from petty offenses, to one of the most horrible, bloody murders that a person could commit, by luring a couple to their ultimate demise, for a very small infraction against him. He chops, burns, and gets rid of the bodies, but the evidence is stacked high. Also, a bonus old time family vs family murder showdown!

Along the way, we find out that some people may just be born to be bad, that saw blades certainly don't burn at the same temperature as bodies, and that you should never leave your purse, with your IDs, at a crime scene!!

Hosted by James Pietragallo and Jimmie Whisman

Two in one

Two crazy stories in one episode! Love when this happens. Great show as always. Love the blend of story and comedy.

Oh the old Tug River it's been a long time ago.

I only wish I could take James and Jimmy to a place I lived for a couple of years. I would have so much fun with them. you see I've been up close to that river and believe me you nobody would fish or tug near it, Back in the 70's during the time of peace and love as people walked around with POW bracelets on and wearing flowers in their hair and on their clothes dropping acid and smoking weed I was not quite a teenager yet. We lived on a hill next to the Tug River. I was told never to wade, swim, or play near it because their was raw sewage which spoke volumes to me. People were poor and if they could get away with doing so they would run a pipe from their home into it instead of having a septic tank. Honestly I can imagine some people living there taking dismembered bodies in a car on the back seat and stopping to eat. I am so glad to have only lived there a short period of time. It was definitely an odd experience.
