Show notes

In this 10-year anniversary episode, we continue the HH Holmes story into 1892 Chicago as the World's Columbian Exposition approaches. His half-finished hotel at 63rd and Wallace becomes the setting for a familiar pattern—and for Emeline Cigrand, the young stenographer whose disappearance would leave behind more evidence than any case connected to him before his arrest.

Bradley Robert Edwards | Claremont Serial Killer - Part 6 Aug 03, 2026

Show notes

He attacked her from behind, one arm looping around her body while his right hand forced a cloth gag into her mouth, silencing her before she had time to understand what was happening. Davis, seated on a wheeled office chair, was terrified, certain in that moment that her life was in danger. Her attacker was tall and powerfully built, and he had come prepared, cable ties already sitting ready in his pocket. Pinning her arms to her sides, he began dragging the chair, with her still in it, backward toward the bathroom, saying nothing at all throughout the assault, his silence somehow more unsettling than any threat could have been.

Bradley Robert Edwards | Claremont Serial Killer - Part 5 Jul 20, 2026

Show notes

Victims were chosen opportunistically but matched specific fantasy criteria involving age, appearance, and physical build. Nothing was left to chance. He would prepare a specialized kit with tools, restraints, and tape, carrying it in his vehicle. The profile painted a solo operator; he was intelligent, strategic, lived within about five kilometers of Claremont, and was intimately familiar with its leafy streets and the remote, forested dump sites. He killed before disposing of the bodies, ensuring absolute control to the end.

Bradley Robert Edwards | Claremont Serial Killer - Part 4 Jul 06, 2026

Show notes

Police had at this time gained tunnel vision regarding a suspect named Lance Williams. He had volunteered, insisted actually, on being given a polygraph test. He supposedly failed this test as it showed anomalous scores after he was asked if he was a serial killer. Here I would like to pause for a brief moment, dear listener, and comment on something. Polygraph testing should, in my humble opinion, be banned from use by law enforcement. It is pure pseudo science, complete hogwash, bogus, humbug, unfiltered quackery that has probably caused immense suffering inflicted upon innocent men and women over the years. A polygraph test simply measures stress and anxiety in its subject. Blood pressure, sweat and heartrate. It does not, and I repeat, does not read the subject’s mind.

Bradley Robert Edwards | Claremont Serial Killer - Part 2 Jun 08, 2026

Show notes

He grabbed her and slammed her head against the brick wall repeatedly, at least six times by her account, while simultaneously attempting to tear her skirt from her body. She told the officers from 79 Division who took her statement that she had believed, with complete and terrifying certainty, that she was going to be raped or killed. She fought back with everything she had. The struggle was noticed by club bouncers, large men trained to watch the approaches to the venue, who came running and pulled the attacker off her before taking her inside to be consoled by friends. The man fled into the surrounding streets and was never found.

Bradley Robert Edwards | Claremont Serial Killer - Part 1 May 25, 2026

Show notes

When she was close enough, he came out of the dark behind her with a violence that gave her no time to think or react; he drove her face-first into the grass with enough force to knock the breath from her body. Before she could scream, before she could roll or kick or run, he had flipped her onto her back, dropped his full weight onto her stomach, and shoved a cloth deep into her mouth. Then he wrenched her over again and bound her wrists behind her back, pulling the cords so tight they bit immediately into the skin.
