Restaurants are no strangers to violent crime, as any reader of local news would attest.
Occasionally the offenses are so appalling that they snag national attention. And then there are the atrocities that can haunt the public for weeks because of the brutality.
This week’s edition of Restaurant Rewind looks at two of those nightmarish events, the seven-person murder in the Chicago area that took nine years to solve, and the abduction and killing of four young crewmembers in Indiana. That case remains open after 46 years.
The situations are a reminder of why restaurants in places like San Francisco and Washington, D.C., truly need the crime protection they’re seeking from local authorities. They’re chapters that everyone connected to the business hope to never witness again.
Press Play for a recount of what happened those many decades ago. But please be advised that some listeners could find the content disturbing.
