Violent Night: The Carnation Murders.

December 24, 2007. Carnation, Washington. Wayne and Judy Anderson were preparing to spend Christmas Eve with their family when their daughter, Michele Anderson, arrived at their rural home with her boyfriend, Joseph McEnroe. But the couple had not come to exchange presents or share a holiday meal. They came armed—and with a plan to kill. After shooting Wayne and Judy, Michele and Joseph waited inside the house for the rest of the family to arrive. Hours later, Michele’s brother, Scott Anderson, entered the home with his wife, Erica, and their two young children, five-year-old Olivia and three-year-old Nathan. None of them would leave alive. Six members of one family—three generations—were murdered inside a home that should have been filled with Christmas celebration. Their bodies remained undiscovered for two days, until a concerned friend went to the property after Judy failed to arrive at work or answer her telephone. Michele and Joseph initially claimed they had left town to get married, but their story quickly collapsed under police questioning. Both eventually confessed, yet each attempted to shift responsibility toward the other. At the center of the case were Michele’s bitter grievances against her family, including her belief that they had mistreated her and owed her money. How could resentment grow powerful enough to destroy an entire family? And what could compel two people to sit inside a house filled with bodies, waiting for two innocent children to walk through the door? This is the devastating story of the Anderson family—and the Christmas Eve massacre remembered as The Carnation Murders. sources used for this podcast Support the show JOIN THE  HITCHED 2 HOMICIDE IN-LAWS AND OUTLAWS START KRIS CALVERT'S BOOKS TODAY FOR FREE Send Kris and Rob a Message H2H WEBSITE H2H on TWITTER H2H on INSTA     Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
