Mass Murderer Realizes He Accidentally Killed 192 People

Close your eyes and travel back to a quiet morning in Bath, Michigan, where a school board treasurer turned his rage into a plan of apocalyptic violence. Andrew Kehoe was a respected farmer, but mounting debts and a new school tax he despised pushed him over the edge. He plotted for months, planting hundreds of pounds of dynamite in the school basement. When the bombs detonated on May 18, 1927, the blast killed 38 children and 6 adults, while Kehoe watched from his truck before triggering a final explosion, ending his own life. He had intended to destroy the entire school, but a malfunction in the south wing's detonator spared over 230 kg of explosives from igniting. In his fury, he had not only miscalculated his own death toll but had come terrifyingly close to killing even more. Let this haunting history guide you into a deep, reflective sleep.
