What this episode covers
Last time we talked about the senseless massacre that took place in a Be-Lo grocery store in the small town of Windsor. Three employees, Grover Cecil, Joyce Reason and Johnnie Rankins, were left dead and two others severely injured, while one person miraculously walked out of the store unharmed. A white sedan was seen speeding out of the town shortly after the incident—but despite all the eyewitnesses, this was not an open-and-shut-case. Support our podcast by becoming a patron.
