Very sad story

I appreciated that they explained the recordings since I couldn’t understand most of what was said in the original recordings. Still was interesting that they included it though. One issue I had was with the description - it says his 17 children were killed but really it was just 6 of his children as his other 11 were with the mother than left him prior to this happening. (Assuming all other 11 were from the same mom)
