Show Notes
On January 11th, 1968, Victor Ernest Hoffman was found not guilty by reason of insanity in the murders of James and Evelyn Peterson... but our story doesn't end there. It's been more than five decades since nine people were slaughtered in that small white farmhouse by the highway near Shell Lake, but the weight of this crime is still felt daily by those who were left behind. Episode 6 explores the lasting impact that the murder of Jim, Evelyn, Jean, Mary, Dorothy, Pearl, William, Colin and Larry Peterson has had on those closest to them and the community as a whole.
