Episode 19 – A Really Bad Version of the Terminator.

The Thanksgiving season is upon us and here in America, this means spending time with your loved ones. Well, here at the BTC, we couldn’t let this holiday pass without having one episode dedicated to those we truly care about. This week, Vicky and Janelle tackle familicide. Discussing two extreme murder cases, they take a look at what could drive people to fulfill the role of the “family annihilator.” This one will make you extraordinarily thankful for those who haven’t killed you…yet.
