Spree killings are often off-beat, whether they are planned or spontaneous, but the case of Daniel Remeta is stranger than most. Over a six day period in February 1985 he murdered five innocent people in three states accompanied by his teenage girlfriend and a teenage male friend. After the first two murders on their deadly road trip they picked up a hitchhiker who joined in the carnage, although he was later cleared of all charges after a retrial. Four days after his acquittal, James Hunter dropped dead from a heart attack at the age of 36.
Remeta's friend Mark Walter was killed in a shoot out with police while Lisa Dunn spent a mere eight years behind bars and on release continued her train wreck of a life. Remeta would be executed in Florida on March 31, 1998, having also been sentenced to death in Arkansas.
The two dudes who present this podcast are comedians, or seem to think they are, but although their buddy buddy style of presentation won't be to everyone's taste, they go into considerable depth on the case discussing also the teenage victim who survived and Remeta's post-conviction antics.
