The Murder of Gladys Kincaid (Part 2)

In the summer of 1927, the murder of a 15-year-old mill worker named Gladys Kincaid plunged the town of Morganton, North Carolina, into chaos. It triggered the largest manhunt in Western North Carolina history for a suspect named Broadus Miller. In the conclusion of this two-part story, host Alfred Dockery is joined by historian Dr. Kevin Young, author of The Violent World of Broadus Miller, to discuss the ballads of Gladys Kincaid, as well as the aftermath and legacy of the crime and manhunt.Sources⁠⁠Blue Ridge True Crime Sources & Links⁠⁠Explore More Content⁠⁠Blue Ridge True Crime Substack⁠⁠⁠⁠Blue Ridge True Crime YouTube Channel⁠⁠Check out Dr. Young’s book.⁠The Violent World of Broadus Miller on Amazon⁠
