In December of 2003, 23-year-old Bart Whitaker had just finished his finals and was about to graduate from college. That night, he went to dinner to celebrate with his parents, Tricia and Kent, and his younger brother Kevin. As they returned home and walked through their door, they were ambushed by a masked gunman. Initially, authorities suspected that this was a burglary gone wrong. But before the funerals had even taken place, detectives discovered that Bart had lied about graduating. And that was just the beginning. <br /><br />Hosted and produced by Erica Kelley <br />Researched and written by Andrea Marshbank and Erica Kelley<br />Original Graphic Art by Coley Horner <br />Original Music by Rob Harrison of Gamma Radio<br />Edited & Mixed by Brandon Schexnayder and Erica Kelley <br />Suggested by Jessica, Donna, Michelle, and Kyle<br /><br />Sources: <a href="https://southernfriedtruecrime.com/whitaker-family-massacre" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://southernfriedtruecrime.com/whitaker-family-massacre</a><br /><br /><b>This episode is brought to you by: </b> <br /><ul><li>Get your year started off right with healthy new vitamins.
