In this special holiday episode, we get into "The Dayton Christmas Killings" which took place in Dayton, Ohio, from Dec. 24-26, 1992. 6 people were killed and three were injured in one of the bloodiest killing sprees in Dayton’s history.
STATS
Victims:
Joseph Wilkerson, 34, acquaintance of Taylor
Danita Gullette, 18, mother using a payphone
Richmond Maddox, 19, Taylor’s ex-boyfriend
Sarah Abraham, 38, convenience store clerk
Marvin Washington, 18, an acquaintance
Wendy Cottrill, 16, an acquaintance
Four people were convicted of the killings:
Marvallous Keene, 19, who was later executed
Heather Nicole Matthews, 20
DeMarcus Maurice Smith, 19, Matthews’ boyfriend
Laura Taylor, 16, Keene’s girlfriend
The killers were 2 black men, 1 very bold black girl, and a young white girl.
We get into the setting, the history of Dayton, the backgrounds of The Downtown Posse members and their victims. Before we share our tips on how not to get murdered, we give shout outs and get into some true crime news.
We are going to take a short break for the holidays, but will be back in the New Year!
