Judith and Alvin Neelley, a drifting, Southern white-trash couple,
went on a spree of robbery, kidnapping, sexual assault, and murder
in Georgia in the early 1980's, often with their twin children along.
After their capture, it soon became apparent that the impetus for
the killings came not from sinister, smiling, oversized Alvin,
but from his pregnant teenaged wife, Judy, who far surpassed her
husband in cruelty and thirst for blood.
