Ep 15- The MacDonald Family Murders of Fort Bragg
In the early hours of February 17, 1970, Army doctor Jeffrey R. MacDonald called 911 to report a stabbing in his home in Fort Bragg, North Carolina. When police arrived, they found the brutally murdered bodies of Jeffrey's wife and daughters: Colette, Kimberley, and Kristen. Jeffrey himself was the lone survivor of the attack — with considerably less injuries than the stabbings and blunt force trauma the other victims endured. He claimed that a group of intruders attacked him and killed his family, while one blonde woman watched and said, "Acid is groovy. Kill the pigs!"
It soon became clear that Jeffrey was lying, and investigators grew suspicious. But then they got word of a confession by a person who matched the description of the blonde woman Jeffrey said had been at the scene of the crime. This changed the trajectory of the investigation and led to legal battles still being fought over 50 years after the murders.
In the Something Spooky segment, Zoey talks about a D-list movie she saw on YouTube called The VeliciPastor, which is somehow more ridiculous than it sounds.
We also feature a promo from Twisted and Uncorked.
