The Tales We Tell
Ep. 119: The Death of Marilyn Reese Sheppard
An unsolved murder, O.J.’s future lawyer, peripheral relations to Nazis, and a short lived WWE career. This episode takes some wild turns! This week, Hannah tells Katy about the murder of Marilyn Reese Sheppard, and the events that followed as investigators tried to find her killer. It happened on the 4th of July, so it is technically holiday-themed. And it just gets weirder and weirder.
Pour your drink of choice (lots of drinking game hits today!) and settle in for this week’s Unsolved Mystery!
Special shoutout to listener, Amanda: Critter finally got his photo shoot in his Hungry Caterpillar outfit!
