Copycat Killers: X-Men

PodcastOne
About this episode

On May 23, 2015, a triple murder shook a small town in Oxfordshire, England. That's when 21-year-old Jed Allen reached his boiling point. He is furious about his mother's spiraling problems with drugs, alcohol and a boyfriend Jed does not approve of. Worried for his mother and his sister, he kills the three in a blind rage. His misguided need to protect his family from themselves is inspired by the X-Men character, "Wolverine" who is known for being a loner with a kind heart, but who also allows his good intentions to morph into killer instincts instead.
