A radio transmitter in a converted grain tower outside Mill Fork went live at 10:40 PM on March 8, 1937, broadcasting sixty thousand listeners the sound of a woman seated at the console as she was strangled with copper wire; who turned on the transmitter and why was a jar of strawberry preserves placed beside her? The unexplained details-reels still turning, a half-hitch knot tied with 14-gauge wire from the station spool, and a padlock shown later to be properly seated-leave one central question: who with access and skill staged this scene for thousands to hear?
In this episode, we present the sequence of events, the key people at WMLF, and the physical evidence investigators recorded at the transmitter building, ending on the unresolved question that drew the county to the grain tower that spring night.
