概要
On Christmas Eve 2008, a quiet suburban home in Covina, California, filled with laughter, tamales, and generations of the Ortega family, became the scene of one of the most shocking mass murders in American history.
A knock at the door.
An eight-year-old girl runs to answer, excited to see Santa Claus.
What followed was gunfire, terror, and a deliberately set inferno that claimed nine lives and scarred survivors forever.
This is the true story of Bruce Jeffrey Pardo, a man unraveling in silence and the night he turned a family’s most sacred tradition into annihilation.
We walk through the planning, the attack, the chaos, the aftermath, and the lingering echoes that still haunt Knollcrest Drive seventeen years later.
Warning: This episode contains detailed accounts of mass murder, arson, gunshot injuries, and profound trauma. Listener discretion is strongly advised.
