Episode description

Bobby Kicklighter was a beloved husband, father, and grandfather, a pillar of his community, and the local town historian. When he was randomly shot in his bed at the age of 88 the town of Glennville, Georgia wanted answers. The ones they got were disturbing, confusing, and down right scary. This case is a smaller piece of a larger puzzle but we are honored to tell Mr. Bobby’s story. Join us in the closet this week as we discuss the murder of Bobby Kicklighter.
