FORT BRAGG: The Eastburn Family Murders

In 1985, the family of an Air Force Captain (his wife and two of
his three daughters) were found brutally murdered in their home in
Fayetteville, NC. After an eye witness pointed at Sergeant
Timothy Hennis as a suspect, he was quickly brought to
justice. But the Eastburn Family Murders case would be riddled
with various errors that would ultimately lead to Tim’s
acquittal. The case went cold, until 2005, when the case was
reinvigorated by the cold case team. A DNA hit was made, but
who was the perpetrator? This case will have you on the edge
of your seat. Dig in with Margot as she discusses the case
against Master Sergeant Timothy Hennis. In 2019, this case is still
relevant, as the Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces recently
heard an appeal on October 22, 2019 (listen until the end of this
episode for a quick update).  Listen to the CAAF oral argument
