Crime, Wine & Chaos

Episode 220 - The Daniel's Family Murder & The Eggnog Riot

Amber Clifton | Naomi Lackaff Season 5 Episode 220

This week, Amber tells the story of a loving family from Santa Claus, Georgia, who were gunned down in their own home.

Then, Naomi takes us back to the early years of Westpoint academy when a Christmas party in the North Barracks went hilariously sideways. 

This week, Amber was drinking 3-week old  Kirkland Signature Asolo Prosecco.
