Chainsaw Horror Chase
An Evening of Mystery and Intrigue! CAN YOU SOLVE THE CASE?

During this fascinating program, we will discuss recent Unsolved Crimes. We will go over the evidence and consider it in light of modern forensic science techniques and share ideas of alternative explanations. We will also discuss cases which may have connections to other known cases, indicating additional crime sprees that we did not  previously know about.  This is an incredible program and Thom’s expertise and enthusiasm is truly engaging! You’ll want to continue the discussion even after the program ends! Refreshments will be served.
