This week's case takes us back over 70 years to discuss a case that involves a love triangle (or maybe a love hexagon?), some questionable life choices, and a heaping spoonful of backwoods "justice."

There isn't a description good enough to adequately describe the ridicularity of this case, but if you go to about the 1 hour & 20-minute mark, you can hear it summed up in 3 words that Rob wanted us to use as the title, but I didn't think the podcast apps would approve of.
WARNING: If you don't like banter, you may want to stop at around the 1 hour mark. Also, although we do make light of some aspects of the story, especially at the end of the podcast, we are not making light of anyone's death. No one deserves to die, even if their own actions led to their demise.
I also misspoke at about the 50 minute mark--I said "His beef was with Johnny" but I mean to say "His beef was with Harold."

When 3 little girls are found wandering in the cold 50 miles from their home of Santa Claus, no one could have imagined the horrors that they survived and the horrors that would be found in their home on Dasher Street.
In Part 1, we discuss the life of Kim (Lampp/Driggers) Daniels, who went from foster care to drug addict to losing her children to turning her life around and becoming a foster parent. She felt that God had called her to provide a loving home to children who needed help. She never could've known what one of those kids was capable of.
