80 - Thanksgiving Day Massacre

Thanksgiving Day Massacre

A True-Crime Psychological Breakdown. On Thanksgiving Day 2009, a family dinner in Jupiter, Florida turned into one of the most shocking holiday homicides in modern American history. What began as a quiet evening ended in terror when Paul Merhige retrieved a .40-caliber handgun and murdered five family members without warning — including a 6-year-old child.

In this episode, forensic psychologist Dana Anderson and death-row survivor + serial-killer expert William A. Noguera dissect the psychology behind this massacre:

• What drives a family annihilator — and why holidays heighten risk
• The red flags, resentment, and long-term psychological buildup
• What a Kill List reveals about planning, fantasy, and motive
• Patterns of familicide, personality structure, and warning signs people missed
• Why this case still haunts investigators, clinicians, and families

A chilling exploration into the mind of a murderer.
