I Could Murder A Podcast

The year is 1871. The American Wild West is in full swing.

He had made his way along the Great Osage Trail, covering hundreds of miles where hundreds of men had vanished before him…During his travels, he saw no sign of outlaws, horse-thieves or highwaymen and, instead, was greeted by a charming frontier family and the offer of a warm, home-cooked meal… THIS was The Bender Family - and that warm, home-cooked meal that he was promised would very quickly become his last… The traveller and his horse were never seen again and he was far from their last victim… Welcome to The Devil’s Inn: this is the terrifying true story of The Bloody Benders… For HUNDREDS of more cases (and to request your own), visit icmap.co.uk now and sign up for free!Presented by Tom Norris & Ben CarterWritten by Ben CarterProduced by Dan J LambertEdited by Ben Bonsey Hosted on Acast.

It was just another regular Tuesday afternoon in the city of Sunnyvale, California. The employees at ESL Incorporated were going about their day, blissfully unaware that their office building was about to become the scene of one of the most shocking shooting sprees in the state's history... Little did they know that, out in the carpark, sat a dangerous and vindictive ex-employee... One who felt scorned, rejected, belittled and very much ready to take his revenge... 39-year-old Richard Farley was sitting in a rented motorhome, plotting his malicious attack... Armed with an arsenal of weapons, more than a thousand rounds of ammunition, and years of simmering obsession, he began his journey towards the office building... Farley forced his way inside, shooting multiple rounds indiscriminately at anything and anyone unfortunate enough to be caught in his path… His main target and apparently his ultimate motivation for this heinous attack was 26-year-old Laura Black. Farley had been instantly fixated with the young engineer from the moment he met eyes with her 4 years earlier… He professed his feelings for her several times - and he simply would not take “no” for an answer.For HUNDREDS of more cases (and to request your own), visit icmap.co.uk now and sign up for free!Presented by Tom Norris & Ben CarterWritten by Ben CarterProduced by Dan J LambertEdited by Ben Bonsey Hosted on Acast.
