The Brothers Who Committed Familicide - February 26 2025

May 27th: Body of Anna Brown Found (Osage Native American Murders) (1921) Sometimes our show’s short episodes make it difficult to cover more involved cases. Cases where crimes span decades and the victim count is well into the hundreds. Today’s story is one of those historical cases. On May 27th 1921 the body of a young woman was found in the midst of multiple crimes happening against the Osage tribe in Oklahoma. Her death was just one of many. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osage_Indian_murders#:~:text=The%20Osage%20Indian%20murders%20were,place%20from%201921%20to%201926., http://www.nativepartnership.org/site/PageServer?pagename=PWNA_Killers_of_the_Flower_Moon&s_src=GoogleAds23KOTFM&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAivGuBhBEEiwAWiFmYTDvYnQGeTHK3-Vl3-RX-Qt3zqW7mzYo72pUkCL49cFUJGRHbwGbrxoC4A0QAvD_BwE, https://www.okhistory.org/publications/enc/entry.php?entry=OS005, https://www.history.com/news/osage-murders-reign-terror-husbands-guardians, https://www.pbs.org/filmfestival/films/osage-murders, https://www.vox.com/culture/23920002/killers-flower-moon-true-story-osage-murders-reign-of-terror-mollie-burkhart-what-happened Learn more about your ad choices.
