Mass murders, particularly mass shootings, have long been a tragic part of American history. While many of these incidents share commonalities, differences such as political, racial, and personal motivations also exist. Most mass shooters leave behind written evidence of their motives, like letters or manifestos, and some even have accomplices who share their twisted views. In this episode, we delve into the story of one of the earliest mass shooters, Mark Essex. Written and hosted by Colin D. Heaton.
