Episode 33 - On the night of February 3rd, 1880, a mob formed a plan to rid their town of a problem. This problem was the Donnelly family. They had been a problem for too long and made the community’s lives a living hell, it was time to deal with them once and for all. The mob attacked the Donnelly’s in their home and by the end of the night killed 5 of them. The main question is why? Why was the family slaughtered and more mysteriously why was nobody convicted of the murders? In this episode, we will explore the lead up to the massacre, the theories that exist of why the family was so hated, and why nobody was convicted and the murders?
