In Colder Blood
On November 15, 1959, in the small town of Holcomb, Kansas, four members of the Clutter family were savagely murdered by blasts from a shotgun held a few inches from their faces. There was no apparent motive for the crime, and there were almost no clues.
Author Truman Capote reconstructed the murder and the investigation that led to the capture, trial, and execution of the killers, and generated both mesmerizing suspense and astonishing empathy. In Cold Blood is a work that transcends its moment, yielding poignant insights into the nature of American violence. But did Capote go too far in composing this American classic?
Mark Anthony, The Psychic Lawyer, joins True Crime Tuesday to break the case down and reveal some of the mistruths that Capote reported in his book about the case, and comes to his own conclusion about this brutal murder case!
