On Episode 1:

Sergei Babarin walked into the genealogical/family research library housed at Temple Square by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. But it wasn’t an interest in ancestry that day that brought the Soviet ex-pat to the library.

He approached a woman at the front desk, pulled out a .22 caliber handgun, and shot her point-blank in the head.

What drove this man to kill 2 people and injure others in the heart of Temple Square? Let's talk about it on Curiosity Killed Nightcat.
