#169 - A Brutal, Silly & Victimless Murder in Layland, West Virginia

This week, in Layland, West Virginia, police come upon a dead man, dangling by one foot, off of a local bridge, while people are observed fleeing the scene. How that man got there is one of the craziest stories ever told. A tale of violence, anger, untold stupidity, and little remorse. Then again, there are some people that make it awfully hard to feel sorry for. This one is absolutely nuts! It's a family affair! Along the way, we find out that coal mines might not be the safest thing, that children are bad at helping dispose of bodies, and some people might actually deserve to be murdered!
