Check Mate: The Murder of Bill Stout

The longest tournament chess match ever recorded happened in
Belgrade in 1989. It lasted 269 moves and took over 20 hours to
complete. Strategy can take time. Some killers lash out in the heat
of passion, but others take their time. They may want to toy with
their victim for a while first, ratcheting up the torment bit by
bit until finally it’s time to pounce. Or they may be biding their
time to make sure every game piece is perfectly placed before they
make their final move. Whatever the reasons, sometimes murder is a
long game. Sometimes all this strategizing pays off, and the
killers walk away free. But other times, a player might be
supremely confident that she’s made all the right moves, but
overlook something crucial and end up losing big. Join us for a
bizarre story of stalking and murder.
