***
In this special three-part series, Allison and friend Jayson Blair of the Silver Linings Handbook are back together again to talk about a case that continues to haunt Oklahoma nearly 50 years later.
Lori Farmer, Denise Milner, and Michele Guse were among dozens of Girl Scouts who arrived at Camp Scott in Mayes County Oklahoma in June of 1977. After only one night, a camp counselor found the three girls brutally slain around 150 yards away from their shared tent. After a massive manhunt, police found their suspect: a local Cherokee and escaped convict by the name of Gene Leroy Hart, a man with both a violent past and a standing of merit in his community as a former high school football star.
But despite the evidence against him, convincing both whites and Natives alike with a long distrust of law enforcement to believe he did it was a whole other matter. This case has been compared to OJ Simpson for numerous reasons, which you'll soon see.
