The Bath School Disaster


Listen Later

On May 18, 1927, a school in Bath Township, Michigan saw an attack that to this day is considered the most deadly school massacre to ever exist in US history. There were several explosions that day that left many dead, including the perpetrator. Some cases leave quite a mystery but in this one, we know the reason why this attack happened, who did it and the plan that unfolded for nearly a year prior to it. Almost a hundred years later, although nearly forgotten by most throughout history, is still considered a mass tragedy. Join us while we tell you this heartbreaking tale and the mental state of the man who committed this tragic crime.
