About this episode

The episode discusses the murder of seven-year-old Athena Strand and the subsequent trial of Tanner Horner.

Skip the banter: 00:03:47 A seven-year-old girl was taken from her driveway in broad daylight by the man who had just dropped off her Christmas present. Tanner Horner confessed, pleaded guilty at trial, and jurors still had to sit through the evidence before deciding his fate. Allison tells us the full story, and the details that came out during sentencing are something else entirely. YouTube of this case: https://youtu.be/bAG43miooP4 Support us and become a Patron!
