Christopher Bennett: He Says He Killed to Protect His Sister | No One Was Coming P2

Christopher Bennett and his siblings say they endured years of abuse inside their Virginia family home at the hands of their stepfather, Vincent McDorman. Chris says what was happening to his younger sister would ultimately lead to the events of July 2003.

In Part 2 of No One Was Coming, Chris takes us inside his childhood and describes the man he says existed behind closed doors — very different from the former rescue squad captain and pillar of the community known around Craigsville.

Chris talks about the abuse he and his siblings allege they suffered, the attempts to get help, and the events that were building towards the night he would eventually shoot and kill his stepfather.

This is Part 2 of the Christopher Bennett story.
