On the night of November 14th, 1959, four members of the Clutter family were bound and shot dead in their farmhouse in Holcomb, Kansas. Nothing of value had been stolen. The doors, as always, had been unlocked.

In the first of three episodes on the Clutter family murders, Katie Ring traces who the Clutters really were, and the morning when friends and neighbors arrived for church and found them gone. This is the case that changed how America thinks about small-town safety, and inspired one of the most famous books ever written.

This episode contains descriptions of murder and violence. Please listen with care.
