  • Resumen

  • In Episode 1, we noted a widely held view about the MacDonald murders: namely, that MacDonald’s story is too implausible to be taken seriously. In Episode 2, we ask why. Why does Jeffrey MacDonald’s account of the murders strike so many people as simply not believable?

    One answer is that these people have a background understanding of another set of murders that happened six months earlier: namely, the Manson murders. And that understanding is that the Manson murders were a singular, unrepeatable, one-of-a-kind occurrence –– not the kind of thing that happens twice in six months, three thousand miles apart.

    On this understanding of the Manson murders, the MacDonald murders become self-explanatory. Jeffrey MacDonald clearly killed his own family and then reached for the lowest hanging fruit in the garden of American popular culture: he tried to peddle the idea that the Mansons –– or people like them –– had murdered his family. Hence the talk of pigs, acid, and the word written in blood.

    The question for the historian, then, is obvious: how singular were the Manson murders? Were they, in reality, the product of one madman’s dark vision, or did they emerge from countercultural currents that ran deeper than Charles Manson –– that had, indeed, brought Manson himself screaming to the surface of the popular American imagination?

This episode goes right into the defendants story of what happened

There seems to be a lot of problems with the Judge and Dr Macdonald’s civilian Defense Lawyer . The judge was over ruling him at all levels in this case. The Flower pot is another problem because it was inside the house without soil, his pj bottoms were not kept as evidence they were thrown out at hospital. Back door was open and was not locked. The general public was coming in the house until the army finally taped off the house. Fingerprints on door was so many and all over the place. The drs wallet was stolen by EMT Driver, the MP DID NOT EVRN ATTEMPT TO START A ROADBLOCK. The woman in the white floppy hat was seen at the crime seen across the street by another military police officer. The woman with floppy hat has since died from a drug overdose in late 2010’s so her statements were constantly being contradicted. Dr MacDonald has since maintained his freedom since the beginning. This episode shows that call made in to CID which was relevant was deemed irrelevant by CID at the time
