Journal 5

The gruesome crime scene in the Clutter household was a bloody mess. They first found Nancy Clutter in her bedroom, face down, shot in the back of the head. They then found Mrs. Clutter in her bedroom also shot in the back of the head. Both victims hands and feet tied with together with wire. In the basement, they found Kenyon Clutter in the playroom proped up on pillows on the couch. Shot to death. Lastly, Mr. Clutter found in the furnace room. He showed signs of struggle and torture. Not only was he shot in the head but had his throat slit as well. My reaction was how heartless could someone be to do this to innocent people? The crime scene was described very well it made my stomach churn.
