EP. 07: Cult Killers | Homocide True Crime Podcast

Today, we're talking about the true crime cult classics... Murders, that is. These killings have an extra sprinkling of absolutely insane mind control. We've all heard not to drink the Kool-aid, but what about willingly following an openly violent weirdo? Seems harmless!

Kevin is kicking us off with the Kirtland cult killings. Imagine being told you're going on a lovely little wilderness trip and being shot and unceremoniously buried on top of the rest of your family? Rude. This is the story of Jeffrey Lundgren and the small paramilitary religious cult that killed the Avery family on the night of April 17, 1989.

The reasoning? Well, Dennis Avery was speaking out a bit too much, and the kids were "unruly." So naturally, the whole cult decided it was perfectly acceptable to sacrifice them!

Then Brandon tells us the tale of how one man's "internal Jesus" led to a truly horrifying scene years after his death. Basically, Jakob Lorber thought himself a prophet, wrote all of those internal Jesus thoughts down, and a cult formed after his death.

Then, a little creep named Harald Alexander had a baby named Frank and decided that the baby was a prophet. And guess what!? His whole family went along with it. Like, so much so that when Frank declared "the killing hour," his mother and sisters were like, "Okay, slay me, brother, that's totally fine!" WTF!

Moral of the story? Don't believe anyone that tells you they're a prophet.

And as always, leave us a 5-star review!! Now is the moment so you can be a part of our "What's the tea!?" giveaway. We're starting our own cult with this pod but we promise not to murder you soooo, you're welcome.
