In Broad Daylight

pick

What a wild, emotional ride. Ken McElroy terrorized a small Missouri town for a couple decades. He raped young girls, threatened people with guns, harassed, stole, lied and shot people. No law enforcement ever stopped him. The town did though, when McElroy was fatally shot one morning in front of over 40 people. The way Ken never got in trouble with the law is infuriating. And honestly, I don‘t blame the town one bit for what they did.

vivastory @Suet624 I feel morbidly obligated to read it since I live in MO 😬 5y

Suet624 But of course! It‘s like me reading about Ted Bundy who grew up in an unwed mother‘s home in Burlington, Vermont. 😁 5y
