The Christmas Killings


Listen Later

Christmas Eve in 1992 would mark the start of a killing spree in the city of Dayton, Ohio, which would be remembered as the worst in the city’s history. The four involved in this spree were an unlikely bunch due to their age, but their rampage over three days would rattle the city and leave many without their lives. The police called it at the time a “joy killing” spree but this story would be remembered as the Christmas Killings. Join us as we discuss the horrifying details of this case and the fate of the four involved.
