Description

Survived by One: The Life and Mind of a Family Mass Murderer A gripping true crime story about one of the most horrific family mass murders in U.S. history, and the psychological factors that led to it. On November 8, 1985, Tom Odle brutally murdered his parents and three siblings in Mount Vernon, Illinois. After seventeen years on death row, his sentence was commuted to natural life due to a governor's moratorium on the death penalty. This change had a profound impact on Odle, forcing him to confront his past and understand why he committed such a heinous crime. With the help of Dr. Robert Hanlon, a neuropsychologist who examined him in the past, Odle embarked on a therapeutic process of introspection and self-reflection. Their collaboration resulted in this book, which sheds light on the psychological aspects of extreme carnage and the events that led to Odle's tragic actions.
