Ep. 90: The Tiede Cabin Murders

When a couple of low-brow criminals get together at the holidays with a half-baked plan to make it big in New York (or something?), the results are tragic. This week, Hannah takes a listener suggestion (thank you Amanda!) and tells Katy about the Tiede family murders that took place in a remote Utah cabin in December of 1990. Find out exactly how snow mobiles work (they’re just like jet skis, right?), why you should always be suspicious of your niece’s new “boyfriend”, and why the best surprise witness at trial is the one the defendant thought they killed.

It’s a Christmas tale of everyone’s worst nightmare: a guy with bad hair, and another with bad glasses, breaking into your home for unknown reasons and killing your family. Spike your hot chocolate for this one, and settle in for a gruesome tale of terror in the remote, snowy mountains.
