43 Texas Tower Sniper, Charles Whitman

from Crimes, Killers, Cults and Beer: A True Crime Podcast · host Dark Pass Productions

Yeah, this one is intense. We explore the childhood into adulthood of Texas Tower Sniper, Charles Whitman who camped out oat the top of the clock tower at the University of Texas, Austin, and opened fire on anything that moved for over 2 hours. The warning signs of his mental state deteriorating were there. Charles even knew it, but he ignored it, and the result was the worst mass shooting that had ever happened in the US at the time. We cover all of it, from start to finish, and it got to be a little much toward the end. But, we got through it. So, buckle up and get ready to take a journey into the mind of a psycho who believed that everyone else was to blame for his failures, resulting in a horrific tragedy. Whew! Check out our website.
