"Our Song" of the week is Flordia from Taylor Swift's Newest Album "The Tortured Poets Department"


Jeff Pelley became widely known for his role in the 1989 killings of his father, stepmother, and two stepsisters in Lakeville, Indiana. Convicted in 2006, Pelley's case captured considerable attention due to its gruesome nature and the subsequent legal proceedings. The murders, occurring when Pelley was a teenager, were characterized by their brutality and apparent lack of motive. Throughout the trial, Pelley maintained his innocence, while the prosecution presented circumstantial evidence and a timeline implicating him. The case stands as a chilling reminder of family tragedy and lingering uncertainties.
