The Strange and Mysterious Death of Tommy Burkett
Listen now
Description
Home from college for the Thanksgiving holiday, 21 year old Tommy Burkett is found dead in his room by his parents. His body is cold to the touch, and emergency responders inform Mr. & Mrs. Burkett that Tommy has been dead for some time. However when brusk detectives arrive on scene, they report that he has only been dead for a few minutes. The case is ultimately ruled a suicide. But before long, considerable amounts of evidence and red flags start to mount, suggesting not only cold-blooded murder, but a deep coverup that could include more than the local police department. Join Mark & Amy as they return to the state of Virginia, in a town called Herndon, to see if they can sort through the evidence to find the answers to Tommy’s death.    Thank you to Mat Graham from Artificial Fear for allowing us to use his amazing cover of the Unsolved Mysteries Theme Song!
