The Case of Bartley Dobben

Episode 111,   Feb 20, 2022, 05:00 AM

A case that truly captures the effects of untreated mental illness.  We are going back to Michigan with this one. On Thanksgiving Day of 1987 Bartley James Dobben made a quick stop at the Cannon of Muskegon Foundry, the place he had worked most of his life. He wanted to show his children the inside of the building, and grab his Bible before heading to family dinner. When Bartley left the foundry just minutes later; life would be completely turned upside down. What happened in just the blink of an eye would never be forgotten by the town of Muskegon.
