About the episode
After decades of intimidation and legal loopholes, Ken McElroy’s reign of terror came to a sudden end on July 10, 1981. In front of 30 to 45 witnesses, he was shot dead in the middle of Skidmore, Missouri, and no one claimed to see who pulled the trigger. In Part 2, Carter Roy reconstructs the tense town meeting that preceded the shooting, the fatal confrontation outside a local tavern, and the investigation that unraveled when an entire community closed ranks. Then, Tyler Allen of Minds of Madness joins for an extended conversation examining the legacy of the case and why this act of collective silence remains one of the most infamous instances of vigilante justice in American history.
