I recently read Ryan Katz's 2022 New Yorker article about the victims of a family of serial killers in the US southwest, "The Long Afterlife of a Terrible Crime"*. Through which I learned that the Love+Radio podcast featured Jerry Nation (son of that terrible family) in 2020, interviewed about his life and history. Gripping, not "easy listening"

One day Glen, my biological brother, come to me and said, "What do you think about finding our parents and stuff?"

I said, "Shit. All right. I guess so. Whatever you want."

We went and applied for the state adoption records. Get the records and about this right here, about an inch and a half of papers and stuff. I start reading through it.

What did you expect before you actually got the records?

I didn't expect it to be that bad. Horrible stuff. They're murderers. Serial killers.

Carl was my step-dad. He was the main one. Sherman is my biological grandfather. Ginger, my biological mom, was Big Carl's wife at the time. Then you had Carolyn, which was Sherman's wife. My Uncle Danny, he killed that couple there in Dallas.

Then you had Tammy, my biological aunt. Robert, Michael. Glen, my biological brother. That's what? Six kids and four adults. 10 folks. That's crazy.

"Waldrip began poking around, tugging on threads that had been untouched for years and unearthing new ones. Over a series of months, an alternate theory of what happened to Keith King began to form."

New reading material arrived! I am looking forward to #reading this, but I am notoriously bad at regularity, so please don't expect a full review any time soon :D

"Supernote by Jim Davidson, U.S. Secret Service Special Agent - Retired. Inspired by an untold true story".

It's a beautifully presented hard cover #book with a story I'm looking forward to getting into!
