The Brown's Chicken Massacre

In this episode of The Wicked Ones Podcast… It’s now Jen’s turn for a Hometown murder story. She happened to choose one that, regardless of proximity to the crime, many of us remember seeing the horrific story unfold on the news.

This week, Jen walks us through the Brown’s Chicken massacre that took place in Palatine, IL back in January of 1993.

Seven people tragically lost their lives in one of the most gruesome crimes committed in the Chicagoland area. Despite the sheer number of police officers assigned to the case and the overwhelming amount of tips called in, it went cold quickly. It would take nearly a decade and several advancements in DNA technology for the victim’s families to finally see the killers behind bars.
