The Villisca Axe Murders

One hundred and ten years ago, someone carrying an axe entered a home through an unlocked door late one night. They walked past one room which inside lay two sleeping young girls, and then snuck upstairs where they slipped past another room where four more young children were also asleep. The individual then moved into the next room where a husband and wife lay. By the next morning; six were dead and today we are still trying to figure out why, and by who.<br /><br />Just a heads up here my dear listeners…today we will be talking about the death of both adults and children, possible abuse, and graphic crime scenes.
