Episode 205: The Lawson Family Murders

Charles “Charlie” Lawson and his wife Fannie married in 1911 and went on to start a large family. In 1929, the Lawsons had a successful tobacco farm and a little cabin that housed their family of 9. For unknown (but debated) reasons, Charlie Lawson murdered 7 of his 8 children on Christmas Day before taking his own life, leaving his eldest teenage son the lone survivor of the family.
