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. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/true-crimecast-835508/episodes/dark-bloody-ground-patreon-exclusive-episode/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/true-crimecast-835508/dark-bloody-ground-patreon-exclusive-episode.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
