Killer Cookie Conspiracy - McHenry, Illi...

James Pietragallo, Jimmie Whisman
About this episode

This week, in McHenry, Illinois, several members of an extended family begin to get sick, and even drop dead, from a seemingly mysterious illness. These deaths just happen to be exactly what one family member needs, as he pays off his debts, with the money he collects. Is there some kind of enviornmental cause for the deaths? Maybe the water supply? Or, is it poisoned cookies, doughnuts, and pea soup?? Bodies are dug up, and one arrogant man says it's all done to set him up!

 

Along the way, we find out that every country music artist must have either "Zack", or "Bryan" in their name, that not all doughnuts are as good as they should be, and no one paralyzes themselves, to set someone else up for a crime!!
