Episode 58: HAROLD SHIPMAN - DR. DEATH Mar 10, 2020

Show notes

Shipman is one of the most prolific killers in history with an estimated 250 deaths, all of which, were his patients. Harold would see an elderly patient, inject them with a fatal dose of morphine, then fake the medical records to make it seem like the patient had died of a natural cause. Shipman is a fascinating story as his background, murder methods, and motivation seem widely different than any other serial killer covered in the past.

Episode 57: BOBBY JOE LONG - THE CLASSIFIED AD RAPIST Feb 25, 2020

Show notes

As his name suggested, Bobby used ads in local papers to find vulnerable victims. Long would scan the classifieds to find furniture or appliances for sale, then go to the homes to check out the goods.
He figured that the person selling the item would likely be a wife home who was home alone or a single woman. Sadly, he was often correct and would easily gain access to a victim who was by herself.

Episode 55: IVAN MILAT - THE BACKPACKER MURDERER Jan 28, 2020

Show notes

Ivan Milat abducted hitchhikers around his area under the false promise of a false ride. He would then tie them up, brutally attack the victim until they were dead, then continue his sadistic and sexual behaviors post mortem, sometime even using the bodies for target practice.
Ivan’s kills escalated with violence and ceremony as they progressed, and he likely would of filled the nearby forest with bodies of hitchhikers. However, this case is an example of impressive and tireless efforts by a police force to do everything they could to catch a killer.

Kroll was a fascinating monster who murdered for over 20 years. During his time, he acted out his devious fantasies on victims, rubber dolls and even animals. Joachim was also a cannibal, who said that he looked for victims who looked tasty and tender.

Episode 53: HERBERT MULLIN Nov 12, 2019

Show notes

Herbert believed he must kill fellow humans as a sacrifice, in order to stop huge earthquakes from destroying California. While this seems crazy, you’ll discover through his story that is was likely the reality his mind created through the experiences in his life. Mullin’s thoughts were also controlled by voices that told him to kill and made Herbert believe he had telekinetic powers which he would use to communicate with victims before a murder.
