In part one of this two-part story, we examine the Carnation Murders. This slaughtering of an entire family took place in 2007 in Carnation, Washington, a small rural town 25 miles east of Seattle. We are interested in why this occurred, so we take a closer look at the killer Joseph McEnroe, and examine his life and family. A product of the horrible home life, McEnroe ended up having to take on most of the household responsibilities while he was still just a child. This along with his social awkwardness & speech impediment created a recipe for disaster.
