S&S Liquor Store Murders, A Family Affair | MURDERISH Ep. 068

Published: Oct. 26, 2020, 10 a.m.

On October 27, 1988, McLean County Coroner William Anderson had just come from the Central Catholic\xa0vs. University High School football game. Afterward, he was due to meet with members of his re-election\xa0campaign to go over strategies. Before the meeting, Anderson was volunteered by the others to get beer\xa0for the meeting. He went to the closest store, S&S Liquor Store, located at 703 N. Clinton Street in\xa0Bloomington-Normal Illinois. Anderson grabbed a six-pack and headed home for the strategy session.\xa0Just two to three minutes later, after having made it only a few blocks, Anderson\u2019s pager went off, alerting\xa0him to go back to S&S Liquor Store. When he returned, he stepped straight into one of the worst\xa0tragedies in the town\u2019s history.
