About this listen

The natural born podcasters are back with another installment of Fifty States of Murder! The setting is the Midwestern powder keg of 1950's America when a teenaged boy with nothing to lose joins forces with his questionably-aged girlfriend and lights the fuse on a killing spree that leaves eleven people dead and a community terrorized by its own greatest fear: juvenile delinquency. Charles Raymond Starkweather and Caril Ann Fugate have been elevated to cultural icons, romanticized, fictionalized, misunderstood, denigrated in the media, condemned by the courts, and ultimately became a mirror held up to the darkest aspects of American society. The forces that drove them to strike back against an unfair world hit a little too close to home even today in... Nebraska!
