Join Kelli as she goes over the story of Alfred Packer, who was accused of killing and eating his five hiking companions in the San Juan Mountains of southwest Colorado. He definitely engaged in cannibalism, but he disputed the murder charges. Was he a murderer? Or did he just eat his fellow man to survive in the harsh winters of the Colorado Rockies?
This is the story of the man who inspired Matt Parker and Trey Stone's 1993 cult classic Cannibal! The Musical. So get ready to be grossed out with this latest episode of wild west cannibalism!
