Maniac: The Bath School Disaster and the Birth of the Modern Mass Killer

Tonight, I’m joined by true crime author and researcher Harold Schechter to discuss his riveting new book Maniac: The Bath School Disaster and the Birth of the Modern Mass Killer. Get ready to explore the chilling origins of mass killings in the United States. In 1927, the town of Bath, Michigan, was celebrating its new primary school when local farmer and school board treasurer Andrew P. Kehoe set a deadly plan into motion. Beneath his respectable exterior, Kehoe was a narcissistic sadist filled with rage and paranoia. On May 18, he detonated a series of explosives, killing 38 children and 6 adults in the deadliest school massacre in U.S. history.Maniac is Schechter’s compelling, meticulously researched account of this horrific event, uncovering the dark history of the first mass killing of its kind and how it foreshadowed the wave of mass violence we face today.
