Hi friends! Sorry this episode is a little later than normal. Due to an issue on base we had to record separately. Of course our issues would not stop there. We had to spend the last couple of days editing the recording because Krystle's computer decided to connect to the wrong mic. This is a long and sort of dark episode. We wanted to spend as much time talking about the victims rather than Samuel Little. We tried to do them justice but the sheer number of them was overwhelming. If any of this information is incorrect or if I did not identify a victim who has since been identified, please let us know.
