On the morning of 30th December, 1978, a series of shocking scenes are discovered at a respectable Colorado home. Two teenagers have been shot in their beds, one of them after a bloody struggle. Their 45 year-old mother is dead, too. She is found in the basement, slumped over her typewriter, having typed up a suicide note. This note, together with a host of other factors, reinforces the belief that the woman shot her own children before turning the gun on herself. But is there more to the story than meets the eye? In this episode Barry and Lora try to work out whether there is a psychopath in the family, sharing a simple psychopath test you can carry out at home.
