S3E2: The Reckoning of Chai Vang
On the opening weekend of Wisconsin's 2004 deer season, a confrontation over a tree stand erupted into one of the deadliest hunting-related shootings in American history. Six hunters were killed, two more were wounded, and the man responsible disappeared into the forest. But what drove Chai Soua Vang to open fire? Was it a case of self-defense gone horribly wrong, or a calculated act of murder? Through firsthand accounts from survivors, investigators, and others close to the case, we revisit a tragedy that exposed deep divisions over race, hunting, and justice in rural America.
