Episode 77 – "Hometown Murder" Pt 1 – Click, Click, Click by Anne Varner and Karen DeVanie

Part 1: Blinding flash. BANG- and the target was dead.  A missing person report was filed in Franklin, Virginia by anxious parents, searching for their precious teenager. The investigation would follow lead after lead, to no avail. Suspects would emerge, but those responsible would not fall under suspicion, as the frightened family held vigils, offered rewards, and paced with worry, night after night.  Why a conspiracy to commit murder?  How had 'The Plan' evolved?  How did was the target selected?  Why did this happen?  Join Jill as she delves into the first of the Say My Name series, Click, Click, Click, by the hosts of the Sugar-Coated Murder podcast, Anne Varner and Karen DeVanie.
