#364 - Bird Of A Violent Feather - High ...

James Pietragallo, Jimmie Whisman
About this episode

This week, in High Point, North Carolina, trouble springs up in a marriage, but it doesn't seem like anything that can't be overcome. That is, until one of the couple decides to bring 50-60 exotic birds into the house, causing more problems. This all leads to a surprising plan of murder, put together with some close family members. The murder is as cold blooded as it gets, with the murder coming after the victim begging for mercy. But a written letter, that wasn't supposed to opened is sent to the police, cracking the whole plot wide open!!


Along the way, we find out that people have strong opinions of their small towns, that if you're going to kill someone, make it worth it, and birds can't be racists, on their own!!


Hosted by James Pietragallo and Jimmie Whisman
