Podcast appearances and mentions of amy burridge

Becky Thomson and Amy Burridge, two sisters who fell victim to the ruse of two abductors, the epitome of wolves in sheep's clothing. One would make it out alive, only to bear the brunt and guilt of being the survivor. Unfortunately, the tragedy didn't end on September 4th, 1973, at the Fremont Canyon Bridge, located just outside Casper, WY. It struck again nearly 19 years later at the same bridge, bringing their story to a heartbreaking end.

In 1973, a brutal crime shocked a small, windy town in Wyoming. And although there was light at the end of the tunnel for the survivor, it seemed as though there never was to be a true escape from that fateful evening. This, is the story of Becky Brown and Amy Burridge. And you're listening, to MURDER IN AMERICA.

She died twice on that 12 story bridge.  The first time - she was thrown off the bridge by two men in hopes of killing her. This would be the only way their night of sick torture would stay secret.  The second time - 19 years later. The same bridge. The same spot. The same 120 feet fall.  Are the events connected? How does someone die twice?

Amber’s shares this week that for Alice Uden’s friends and family this was a question they had to find the answer to. It would take 40 years with over 15 years of investigation to finally arrest her for the murder. The story didn’t end there for this family, Alice had a lot to say after she was arrested. She was quick to point the finger at her husband and his involvement in another missing person’s story. Celina shares with us this week a story of survival and tragic loss for one family.

Casper Wyoming is a quiet town. But in 1973, it was marred by an horrific crime. Two girls, sisters - Becky Thompson and Amy Burridge - were snatched off the street, attacked and driven 35 miles to an iron bridge over Fremont Canyon. Then the two men that took them threw them over. But one of the girls survived the 112 foot fall and identified Ronald Kennedy and Jerry Jenkins as the men who attacked them. Still, tragedy would follow her. Find us on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/mensreapod/) or Twitter (https://twitter.com/MensReaPod) ! With thanks to our supporters on Patreon!

This was Ron's first visit to the show, and he is so compelling in his storytelling, you will understand why we always love having him on the program. Casper, Wyoming:1973. Eleven-year-old Amy Burridge rides with her eighteen-year-old sister, Becky, to the grocery store. When they finish their shopping, Becky’s car gets a flat tire. Two men politely offer them a ride home. But they were anything but Good Samaritans. The girls would suffer unspeakable crimes at the hands of these men before being thrown from a bridge into the North Platte River. One miraculously survived. The other did not. Years later, author and journalist Ron Franscell—who lived in Casper at the time of the crime, and was a friend to Amy and Becky—can’t forget Wyoming’s most shocking story of abduction, rape, and murder. Neither could Becky, the surviving sister. The two men who violated her and Amy were sentenced to life in prison, but the demons of her past kept haunting Becky…until she met her fate years later at the same bridge where she’d lost her sister. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/burl-barer/support
