7: Hollandsburg Massacre

Infamous Indy

This week we look at one of the first instances of a set of murders being a “Thrill Killing”. The crime happened in a small-town, in the western part of rural Indiana. It is now known as the Hollandsburg Massacre. The leader of a local gang, Roger Drollinger walked into a trailer near Raccoon Lake and shotgunned to death four teenage boys in their home, and left their mother for dead. This week I talk to Author Mike McCarty. His book “Choking In Fear describes the night of the murders in his home when he was just a 9-year-old boy. He Later went on to become a violent crimes detective and now owns his own security company.
