Description:

In this gripping episode of Seven Deadly Sinners, we speed into the dangerous intersection of fame, power, and betrayal to uncover the shocking true story of Elmer George — a former race car driver turned IMS radio director — whose life ended in a blaze of gunfire on Memorial Day weekend, 1976. Just hours after the Indianapolis 500, George’s lifeless body was found on a rural Indiana farm, the result of a violent confrontation that left the racing world stunned.

Was it a crime of passion, a calculated hit, or a family feud gone fatally wrong?

We peel back the layers of a tangled web involving George’s crumbling marriage to Mari George — daughter of Indy racing magnate Tony Hulman — and her secret relationship with Guy Trolinger, the man who would ultimately pull the trigger.

Strap in.


Oh, and Go Pacers.
