Like most folks I know, I watch whatever true crime documentaries Netflix pops out and wanted to see what kind of true events have happened in my zip code.
The shocking 1984 murders of a mother and daughter in Oldham County, Kentucky, are being featured in this season of "Hometown Tragedy" on the Very Local App.
The words evoke a crime spree that ended violently and dramatically 36 years ago this week.
On June 3, 1985, a Chevrolet Blazer driven by Fritz Klenner exploded on a highway in the town of Summerfield, some 12 miles north of Greensboro.
The bomb that caused the explosion also killed Susie Newsom Lynch, his first cousin, lover and co-conspirator.
Her sons, John and Jim, were in the Blazer and already dead â poisoned and shot â when she or Fritz flipped the switch.
An hour earlier, Fritz had used an Uzi in an attempt to gun down police officers in Greensboro. He wounded two officers, one seriously.
