The Devil's Den Murders: Who Is Andrew James McGann?

The Devil's Den Murders: Who Is Andrew James McGann?

On July 26, 2025, married couple Clinton David Brink and Cristen Amanda Brink went for a hike with their two young daughters at the Devil's Den State Park in Arkansas. A man attacked them, murdering them both. Their daughters escaped.

A 28-year-old teacher named Andrew James McGann was arrested for the murders days later. He has reportedly confessed to police, and his DNA was also allegedly found at the crime scene.

Today, we spoke with a guest who knew McGann back when he was in Oklahoma. She spoke to us about those experiences, some of which are more ominous in hindsight.

The Delphi Murders: A Heathen for the Defense? An Interview with Troth President Lauren Crow

The Delphi Murders: A Heathen for the Defense? An Interview with Troth President Lauren Crow

Richard Allen's defense team has crafted an alternate theory centered around an alleged cult of "Odinists" who killed Liberty German and Abigail Williams as part of some kind of pagan sacrifice. The theory has garnered much press attention and general criticism. But heathens — those who practice pre-Christian Germanic faiths, many of whom are inclusive and anti-racist — are upset by the theory, which they feels maligns their faith. As president of the Troth — an inclusive, anti-racist, pro-LGBTQ heathen organization — Lauren Crow has seen firsthand the impact that the defense's strategy has had on the heathen community. So she was pretty surprised when she got a call from defense attorney Andrew Baldwin in mid-April.Here's a link to The Troth: https://thetroth.org/Here's The Troth's statement on the Delphi case: https://thetroth.org/position-statement/odinist-ritual-defense-indiana-murder-case/Check out Lauren's Heathen History podcast here: https://www.heathenhistory.com/Support The Murder Sheet by buying a t-shirt here: https://www.murdersheetshop.com/Send tips to murdersheet@gmail.com.The Murder Sheet is a production of Mystery Sheet LLC.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
