S2 Ep49: Swamp Monster

Two suspicious deaths at the Dudgeon Swamp in White Cloud,
Michigan resulted in some of the most sensational national
headlines of the 1920s. Amid rumors of incest, murder, and buried
secrets, the Dudgeon family was persecuted by the town, as well
as by the backwoods legal system of Stump Country. But were they
really a family of killers? Or simply the victims of small-town
gossip gone horribly wrong?
