Utah’s Dark LGBT History—Who Murdered Anthony Adams?
In 1978, 27-year-old Anthony Adams, a gay man living in Salt Lake City, was found brutally murdered in his home. His killing was both savage and personal—signs of a struggle and a life cut short. Four decades later, no arrests have been made, and vital evidence has gone missing.
Why did the police let this case go cold? Was Anthony targeted because of his sexuality? And what dark secrets still linger in Salt Lake City’s cold case files?
Join Arlene and Leah as they examine the victim, timeline, evidence, and suspects.
