This episode is only available on Patreon.com In the summer of 1985, the mountains of Eastern Kentucky lived up to their ancient name: the "dark and bloody ground." In less than sixty days, a ruthless crew led by Benny Lee Hodge and Roger Dale Epperson turned quiet communities into crime scenes. They didn't just rob; they executed. From the betrayal of a family friend in Gray Hawk to the heartbreaking murder of 23-year-old Tammy Dee Acker in Fleming-Neon, this crew left a trail of violence fueled by a safe containing nearly $2 million in cash.
