Case 024: Steve Christensen and Kathy Sheets - Part 1

Cabin 13
October 15, 1985. The detonation of a pipe bomb in downtown Salt Lake City kills a man and sends the area into a panic. A few hours later, a second pipe bomb explodes in the city suburbs, bringing the death toll up to two. The following day, a third bomb explodes inside a car—the driver missing death by inches.
Were these bombings the work of a disgruntled investor, a fanatical believer, or something bigger?
Join Cabin 13 as we discuss the so-called Mormon Murders.
