Guess who’s taking you on a wild trip from wholesome to explosive in the latest episode of Fifty States of Murder! Take a seat right here in the Heart of Dixie and let Eli and Mel school you on the difference between a separatist and a supremacist, and how the road not taken might lead to something far worse than a quiet rural homestead. There might be a quiz, so make sure you take notes on the case of Olympic bomber Eric Rudolph, a man whose convictions led him to mayhem, murder, and a life sentence in federal prison, proving that it’s possible to find common ground with a man’s beliefs and still condemn his actions in… Sweet Home Alabama!
