EP259: The Richmond Spree Murders

Ricky “Coolie” Gray, his nephew, Ray “Lucky” Dandridge, and Ashley
Baskerville (Ricky’s girlfriend) were cruising the streets of
Richmond in Ricky’s van during the mid-morning of January 1, 2006
"looking for a house to rob" when they ended up in the middle-class
neighborhood of Woodland Heights. By the time they were caught, 7
people were dead, and one was beaten so badly, he'd never use his
right arm again.
