#313 - Last Man Hanging - Cheswold, Delaware

Small Town Murder

This week, in Cheswold, Delaware, a man who comes from absolutely awful conditions ends up leading a pretty predicable life of crime. Until one day, when he has a complete breakdown, going on a spree that ends up with a trail of terrorized people, and two dead people, one of which is missing half of a head. Its a horrible, bloody mess. The results are insane courtroom outbursts, misspelled letters to the victims' family, and the possibility of being the last man hanged in the United States! But will it happen?

Along the way, we find out that Delaware needs more restaurants, that growing up in the modern age, without indoor plumbing seems to lead to bad life outcomes, and that the fatter you are, the less drop you need when they hang you!

Hosted by James Pietragallo and Jimmie Whisman
