EP 419 - Sawney Bean and Jerry Barker

Donna covers Sawney Bean, the infamous Scottish outlaw said to have led a clan of bandits hiding in the caves of Ayrshire in the 1400s. The bandits whose alleged crimes were so extreme that the story has been told and retold for centuries. She looks at the legend, the history, and what the record actually shows. Kerri covers the murder of Jerry Barker, a case that seemed straightforward on the surface until investigators started looking more closely at the people in Jerry's life. The deeper they dug, the harder it became to ignore what was right in front of them. This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp. Head to www.betterhelp.com/apc for 10% off today!
