The Ice Cream Shop Murders

In 1967, a quiet night in Staunton turned into a nightmare when two young women were found murdered inside an ice cream shop. Constance Hevener and Caroline Perry had been closing up for the night when they were both shot. While money was taken, investigators weren’t convinced robbery was the true motive. Suspicion quickly turned to William Thomas Jr., a man who inserted himself into the investigation with strange and inconsistent stories. Despite being charged and brought to trial, the case against him was filled with gaps and conflicting testimony. A jury ultimately found him not guilty, and he was never retried for the second. The case would eventually be solved thanks to a bizarre twist, which we'll talk about next video.
