On July 29th 1999, Mark O. Barton unleashed his paranoid wrath in the form of a shooting spree that targeted his colleagues at two day trading firms in the Buckhead area of Atlanta. The close proximity and similar settings of the two office buildings made for much confusion among authorities and 911 dispatchers, allowing Barton to flee the scene. As a manhunt for Mark ensued, investigators uncovered a history wrought with delusion, and murderous rage.
Writing and research by Angelina Villeseche.
Original music and audio production by Louis Levesque.
