On June 10, 1912, eight people were found dead in the Moore’s home in Villisca, Iowa. The murders spawned nearly ten years of investigations, repeated grand jury hearings, a spectacular slander suit, murder trials, and numerous minor litigations. Law enforcement agencies from neighbouring counties and states joined forces, and bloodhounds were brought in to track down the killer. The crime made and broke political careers, pitted neighbours against neighbours, friends against friends and family against family. Accusations, rumours and suspicion ran rampant among the community and townspeople began to distinguish and identify themselves by who they believed committed the crime. Even on the first day after the crime was discovered, there was a large number of suspects and murder confessions came in from those who were not even suspected. So who committed the Villisca Axe Murders on June 10, 1912? Join The Lady Dicks as they travel back to Iowa in 1912 to visit the story of the Villisca Axe Murders, and the house that remains haunted because of them.
