When we covered the Donut Shop murders last year, we didn't get into one particularly disturbing element of the case. When Sherman McCrary and Carl Taylor embarked on their violent, cross-country rampage, they didn't just have their wives in tow. They brought along Ginger McCrary-Taylor's young sons as well. This week, we present the conclusion of our talk with Jerry Nations, one of those sons. Jerry shares the story of what it was like to reunite with Ginger as an adult — and will reveal the surprising truth of what she did for a living. .Thanks again to Jerry Nations for being so open and generous with his time.

Correction: In this episode, we said that Tony Kline deleted his Facebook. That was incorrect. It appears that Kline blocked Murder Sheet co-creator Kevin Greenlee when he reached out for comment, so it only appeared that his page was gone. We regret the error. On Facebook, Kegan Anthony Kline posted that he was starting a new job in Las Vegas on the day that Abby Williams and Liberty German were murdered in Delphi, Indiana. But does Kline's Vegas alibi hold up? In this episode, the Murder Sheet speaks with business owners and casino employees to attempt to get to the truth.This episode takes a break from our focus on restaurant homicides, and is part of our intermittent series of episodes on the Delphi case. If you have information on the Delphi murders, send your confidential tip to abbyandlibbytip@cacoshrf.com or call 844-459-5786, 800-382-7537 or 765-564-2413.Follow the Murder Sheet on social media:FacebookTwitterInstagramAnd 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.
