our next series is set to coincide with an investigative series published out of Buffalo, NY, but if you've been following the news lately you know that the city was hit with an historically intense blizzard at the very end of December and then also they've been following the story of Damar Hamlin , the Buffalo Bills player who collapsed on the field a week ago.

For this 'capstone' episode, we're and I talk about some of the most important takeaways from this series, 'Fearfully, she walked the streets.' We consider the nuances of some of the articles we looked at, and we praise the journalistic efforts that went into bringing the story to masses not just the first time, as it was happening, but also decades later when it was ready to be re-examined. A tremendous thank you to the staff of the Greensboro News & Record , especially Managing Editor, Jen...

Over a span of years in the early '90s, Robert Sylvester Alston killed at least four women in Greensboro, North Carolina. With the constant interest in serial killers Alston is seemingly unique in that his crimes have garnered very little attention from anyone out there in the world of true-crime coverage.

With this, the third of our episodes in this series, we're looking at Larry Darby Jr., the man who was falsely arrested. His story was told i...

In the early 1990s, serial killers were having a moment, perhaps most clearly highlighted by the "Silence of the Lambs." A big-screen adaptation of the 1988 novel by Thomas Harris, the film quickly grew from an unexpected blockbuster to an awards season juggernaut, nabbing Oscars for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress and Best Adapted Screenplay. Less than six months after "Hannibal the Cannibal" and friends had popped so many celebratory bottles of chianti, a real-life horror...

Serial killers have always fascinated as much as terrified us. From Jack the Ripper to Jeffrey Dahmer, they have been endlessly documented and studied by police, academics and citizen sleuths alike. So it's surprising to find out that there are still compulsive killers out there who were captured, tried, convicted and imprisoned, yet somehow managed to not have even a Wikipedia page. Chris Lay, along with co-host Nat Cardona, are going to spend the next handful of episodes presenting one such ca...
