Kai McGillvary

By Emash Digital / Wondery

Kai McGillvary went viral in February 2013 for beating a man with a hatchet when the man hit someone with his car and attacked a woman. Kai became known as the “Hatchet-Wielding Hitchhiker.” He was considered a hero, but just a few months later, he was arrested for the murder of a 73-year-old man.

Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss Kai McGillvary. Kai stated that he had a very rough childhood and experienced physical and sexual abuse. His story was that 73-year-old Joseph Galfy Jr. had drugged and sexually assaulted him. While fighting back, he hit Galfy, and the man died. But the police and the prosecution didn't see it that way. Who would the jury believe?
