EP193: The Hungerford Massacre
THANK YOU TO AIMEE D. FOR SUGGESTING THIS EPISODE!On August 19, 1987, the little town of Hungerford, Berkshire, England lost its innocence. On that day, Michael Ryan reached his limit and decided to take the firearms he owned legally and go on a rampage. Over the course of six hours, Michael killed 16 people seemingly indiscriminately and wounded 15 others. This mass killing prompted the government in England to outlaw assault rifles.Join us on Facebook and IG: @HARDCORETRUECRIME Web: www.crimesandconsequences.com--------------->Get ad-free early releases of each episode, plus over 170 exclusive Members Only episodes by going to Patreon.com/tntcrimes or joining our Apple Channel on the Apple Podcast App.Sources:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7aXFtF6QT8 (Our Life, Killing Spree)https://www.theguardian.com/media/2004/dec/08/broadcasting.tvandradiohttps://www.getreading.co.uk/news/berkshire-history/gallery/hungerford-massacre-35-years-horrific-24808652https://www.jesip.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Hungerford-Shootings.pdfhttps://murderpedia.org/male.R/r/ryan-michael-robert.htmhttps://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/inside-indulgent-lonely-childhood-hungerford-11162474https://www.mirror.co.uk/all-about/hungerford-massacrehttps://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/fb-5422329/What-happened-Hungerford-massacre-is.htmlhttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3502821/https://sk.sagepub.com/video/popup/killing-spree-michael-ryan-the-hungerford-massacrehttps://aoav.org.uk/2014/hungerford-1987/http://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/hi/dates/stories/august/19/newsid_2534000/2534669.stmhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/hi/dates/stories/october/16/newsid_3110000/3110949.stmhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/hi/dates/stories/march/13/newsid_2543000/2543277.stm
