In 1981 on the main thoroughfare of Skidmore, Missouri, a man was shot to death, not only in daylight as the title suggests, but in front of 45 of the town's citizens. Despite the brazen nature of the murder, the personal history and rap sheet of the victim, Ken Rex McElroy, is even more jaw dropping. Join us to discuss "In Broad Daylight," by Harry N. MacLean, a true crime book about the murder, as well as the town and its nearly 45-year secret.
