Episode description

In 1991, in Chugiak, Alaska David Kerr opens a package sent to his son George Kerr.  What happened next was wild.  There was a bomb in the package.  David was killed instantly, and his wife Shelly Kerr suffered injuries from over 2000 projectiles.  BUT why was it sent to George?  Well, the year before three young men George and his two friends from the small Alaska community, became wrapped up in the tragic shooting of teenager Jeffrey Cain.  They were shooting heavy duty guns and Cain was in the wrong place at the wrong time.  George decided it was his duty to tell authorities how the shooting happen.  Then his friend Doug Gustafson, the trigger man was marched off to prison on a murder charge.  Doug's siblings did not believe he was guilty and held that grudge that drove them to take an unspeakable action.
