EP 44. The Kahler Family Murders

He was a respected public servant. Then he slaughtered his wife’s family to erase a truth he couldn’t face.

In 2009, Kansas resident Kraig Kahler executed a brutal plan: he gunned down his wife, her grandmother, and their two daughters in cold blood. The motive? His rage over his wife leaving him—for another woman. At the heart of this case is a chilling portrait of control, religious repression, and violent transphobia—hidden behind the mask of a family man.

This episode explores how bigotry and fragile masculinity turned a domestic separation into a massacre—and why queer lives are often the first targets when hatred boils over.

Hosted by Jordi and Brad, Beers With Queers brings chilling crimes, queer stories, and twisted justice to light—all with a cold one in hand.
