In 1955, United Airlines Flight 629 exploded mid air and plummeted into a beet field in Longmont, Colorado - killing all 44 people on board.

News reported it as a terrible accident, but as police further investigated, they realized this was something way more complicated than they could have imagined. No, it was not an accident. It was not a terrorist attack. It was not a murder suicide.

The bombing of flight 629 uncovered a story of hatred, envy, and grudges that stemmed back from the 1930s.

This is the story of the American mass murdered, Jack Gilbert Graham.
