A case study in what happens when a sociopath is paired up with an amoral but ridiculously clever lawyer and pitted against a town that is too fearful to protect their own. McElroy managed to rape underage girls, terrorize witnesses, make his living entirely by robbing poor farmers, literally shoot two men at point blank range, stalk and aim guns at people at will, literally threaten to kill people in public and in full earshot of other residents, and other crimes too numerous to mention. Most of the cops were terrified of him, and every lawsuit against him, until the very last, ended in an acquittal. You will forgive the townsfolk, whoever they are, for what they do when they finally exhaust their options for dealing with him. R.I.P. Ken McElroy. The world is infinitely better off without you in it.
