Armageddon // 063

In August of 2015, 40-year-old Vermont mother Jody Herring lost custody of her three children after a tumultuous battle with substance abuse. Born into a horrific family history of physical, emotional, and sexual abuse, Herring’s mental health began to show clear signs of deterioration as she promised that an “Armageddon” was nearing. On the morning of August 7th, she did the unthinkable. Herring took a .270 hunting rifle from a former lover and set out with a hit list, which included people she viewed as somehow personally responsible for her own neglectful actions. Jody Herring’s August Armageddon united members of her own family and the Vermont Department of Children and Families in tragedy through one of the state's most horrific spree killings.
