About this audiobook
Raised as Jehovah's Witnesses and frustrated with their parents' repressive rules, Bryan and David Freeman rebelled as teenagers. Encouraged by an acquaintance he met while institutionalized at a reform school, Bryan became a neo-Nazi. Bryan then indoctrinated David, and their flare for defiance took a dark turn. After callously murdering their father, mother, and younger brother, the skinhead brothers took flight across America, with police from 3 states in hot pursuit. They were eventually captured in Michigan and returned to Pennsylvania for trial. During the trial, author Fred Rosen uncovered evidence that 1 of the brothers might not have been as culpable as authorities claimed, and divulged the history of a family torn apart by stringent religious beliefs.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This book is about the murders of Dennis and Brenda Freeman along with their son Eric. They were murdered by their 2 other sons, David and Bryan, and their nephew Ben Birdwell. The book gave a well described past leading up to the murders and all that surrounded them. I found it very interesting. It was well-written and well researched. The three teenage killers were neo-nazis, a group that is unpleasant to read about, to say the least, but here, it was interesting and easy to follow. I found it interesting when one of the witnesses in the cases testified against them saying that yes, they believed in white power, but you don't kill your family. I liked the book and do recommend it. It does not dwell on the gory parts of the murder, but rather, the facts and sometimes the emotions.
