The Kidnapping And Murder Of Betty Schnaidt
I dedicate episode 203 to listener Charlene Hall, who not only requested a show about a brutal murder and kidnapping in her hometown, but also sent me her personal collection of clippings to form the basis for this story. Turns out, Charlene’s hometown murder was the culmination of a summer of terror and a brutal cross-country kidnapping spree.
