William Leslie Arnold

In 1958, 16-year-old William Leslie Arnold shot his parents over a dispute involving the family car. Less than a decade into his life sentence, he escaped prison and was on the run for over forty years. In 2022, a genealogy database finally revealed his whereabouts.

Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss William Leslie Arnold. The crimes he committed as a 16-year-old were horrific. They were made even more disturbing because they were carried out against the people who loved him the most. But many have said that his mother was extremely domineering. Was that the motive for the murders? Arnold's escape and life on the run are fascinating, and the fact that he could elude the authorities for so long is almost unbelievable.
