In this thought-provoking episode, we recount the tragic story of Floyd Dennis and the infamous Christmas Tree Murder of 1925. What began as a simple act of holiday preparation turned into a devastating encounter that would change lives forever. Floyd, a young father trying to create a perfect first Christmas for his family, found himself embroiled in a deadly altercation over a tree. Was it an accident, self-defense, or something more?

Join us as we explore the events leading up to the shooting, the courtroom drama that followed, and the societal attitudes toward mental health and justice in the 1920s. This is a tale of innocence lost, a community divided, and a verdict that left everyone questioning what justice truly meant.
