## Resource

On the morning of June 13th, 1980, Candy Montgomery stopped by her friend Betty Gore's house to pick up a swimsuit. When she left, she said Betty was perfectly fine. That night, three neighbors found Betty's body in her utility room, struck with an axe 41 times while her baby cried alone upstairs. The bloody footprint on the floor was too small to belong to a man. And the last person to see Betty Gore alive was sleeping with her husband. This episode contains descriptions of extreme violence and the mutilation of a body. Please listen with care.
