The Unsolved Slaying of Rose Busch: Knoxville Tennessee's Most Notorious Murder of the Mid 20th Century
Show Notes

Today we look back to the most notorious murder in Knoxville's most affluent suburb in the 1960s. Rose Busch was brutally killed in her home in Sequoya Hills home in the late 1960's Just before Thanksgiving. Was it the maid, or the family's long-time gardener?  come with me as we find out what Rose's husband was doing in his spare time, and why the police took a special interest in him.

Unfortunately by the late 1980's most of the evidence had gone missing. Now in the year 2022, the case remains cold, and we may never know what happened to Rose on that Chilly November evening.
