James Parker and Robert Tulloch

About this episode

16-year-old James Parker and 17-year-old Robert Tulloch were friends who were bored with life in their small town of Chelsea, VT. They began to scheme and plan on ways to get to Australia. Eventually, those plans turned to crime and evolved into murder.

Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the crimes of Parker and Tulloch. How did these two kids come to the determination that they were willing to do anything, including committing murder, to escape their small town life? A plan to worm their way into homes, force the homeowners to give up their ATM cards and their pins, led them to encounter Half and Susanne Zantop. The Zantops were beloved professors at Dartmouth and their senseless murders affected many people.
