The Sims Family Murders in Tallahassee


On October 22, 1966, Robert and Helen Sims and their daughter, Joy, were found dead in their Tallahassee, Florida home by the Sims's oldest daughter, Jeanie, when she returned from a babysitting job. “A massive search was launched to find whoever committed the crime,” a local news station recounts. But the Sims had no enemies, there was no discernible motive to the crime, and although there were suspects, no one was ever charged.

Tell us what happened, who did it, and why.
Did you do it?

I can tell you I didn't do this. I was 15 years old. And I lived in Ohio. Now that's not to say a determined 15 year old couldn't get to Tallahassee and do a dastardly deed. And isn't it odd that the elder daughter shares my name? Hmm. Norma.

I came up with three theories.
1.The boyfriend of Jeanie did it. Father said “You’re not good enough for my daughter.
2.A customer was mad. He did it.
3.The oldest daughter did it. She was mad about being under the thumb of her father. Her father always took her babysitting money.

But with no real evidence, perhaps it was the Hebrew Death Laser from outer space that was in the news a few months ago. The gunshots were the real McGuffins, or red herrings if you please.

I still maintain my innocence. I have my birth certificate. I swear I was not 17 in 1966. Honest.
