About this episode

On August 7th, 1985, an entire family was murdered at their farmhouse in Essex, England. Authorities initially believed it was a murder-suicide, but suspicion soon turned to Jeremy Bamber, the surviving family member who called police to the house that night.

Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the White House Farm Murders. Initially, police suspected that the daughter, Sheila, killed her parents and her two boys before turning the gun on herself. But as the investigation heated up they discovered some clues that began pointing in another direction.
