Welcome back to Siblings in Crime!
In this weeks episode, we dive into the tragic story of Rebecca Vance, her sister Christine, and her son Talon, who, driven by fear and conspiracy theories in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, sought refuge in the unforgiving wilderness of Colorado.
Believing that society was collapsing, Rebecca led her family into the remote mountains, hoping to escape a world she no longer trusted. Unprepared and ill-equipped for survival, they faced brutal conditions that ultimately led to their deaths. Join us as we explore how fear, isolation, and misjudgment led this family to a heartbreaking end, and why their story serves as a powerful reminder of the dangers of living in extreme isolation.
