Show Notes
On September 6, 1949, the quiet streets of Camden, New Jersey, became the scene of America’s first recorded mass shooting. Armed with a Luger pistol and a hit list, World War II veteran Howard Unruh walked through his neighborhood, killing 13 people in just 12 minutes.
What drove this seemingly ordinary man to commit such a brutal rampage? Was it lingering trauma from the war, personal grudges, or something even darker? In this episode, we break down the events of that fateful day, the psychology behind Unruh’s actions, and how his case shaped the way we understand mass murderers today.
🎧 Listen now—because history’s darkest moments still echo today.
