Malaga Island: Frederick Sucks - Homegrown Horror

What this episode covers

Today's episode touches on a dark period of Maine history. Where the state evicted a peaceful community of islanders from their homes. Unsurprisingly, this is a piece of history that was swept away and forgotten and has resurfaced in recent years. But why was the community evicted? Were they in danger? The answer will not surprise you.
