The bizarre case of The Pizza Bomber

The bizarre case of The Pizza Bomber

Cheryl and Nikki Druce are kicking things off with an insane bomb plot full of twists and turns… the wacky but totally true story of The Pizza Bomber. It’s a warm afternoon in August, 2003. A phone call is made to Mama Mia’s Pizza in Eerie, Pennsylvania. The resident delivery guy, Brian Wells, heads off to deliver the two large sausage and pepperoni pizzas… never to return. But how did a pizza delivery turn into one of the wildest and most bizarre bomb plots in modern day history? Cheryl and Nikki are about to find out. Expect tales of the most sinister scavenger hunt since Saw, a man who happily stores a dead body but draws the line at an ice grinder, and LOTS of talk about pizza…
