Welcome to the 29th episode of Wild Society!

Ronald Gene Simmons is at the heartbreaking center of the worst family murder spree in American history. During the Christmas holiday season of 1987, Simmons killed 14 family members and two others in smalltown Arkansas. Simmons' deadly massacre included tricking four of his own children into thinking they were about to receive Christmas gifts, right before he killed them. Hear what led to this unimaginable tragedy.

Many of us grew up hearing nursery rhymes and associate them with happy childhood memories... but the true meaning behind these famous rhymes is nothing short of dark and disturbing.
