Hello Wanderers, and welcome to a rather morbid episode of the Foolish Wanderers Podcast.
Before the Feature film premieres in late October this year, we wanted to cover the story that it is based on. Killers of the Flower Moon is a true and tragic tale of greed and betrayal.
When several members of Osage Native American tribe member, Mollie Brown's (ie. Mollie Burkhart Cobb) family start "mysteriously" dying from different causes, it prompts detectives from the Justice Department’s Bureau of Investigation (later to become the FBI) to infiltrate their tribe under fake aliases to find the root of the tragedies.
Please grab a warm beverage, a salty/ sweet snack and join us as we dive into this unbelievable true story.
