In this episode of Horror House, I delve into the astonishing case of Rita Crundwell, Dixon, Illinois' trusted comptroller and treasurer who embezzled over $53 million from her hometown over more than two decades. I talk about how Rita used the stolen funds to support her lavish lifestyle, buying luxury items and building a horse-breeding empire, all while contributing to Dixon's financial decline. .
