Episode description

On this week’s episode, Ame and Kenzie bring you another chapter from the Netflix series Catching Killers. In the late 1980’s investigators in Seattle were finding themselves knee deep in the discarded bodies of young women and girls with little to no evidence pointing them in the direction of who was responsible. Each of these women were known sex workers that walked a busy stretch of highway known as The Strip. The other commonality was that each one had been strangled and dumped, mostly near the Green River.  Police were having less than a successful time finding the solid evidence they needed, and what was collected was still a decade away from the technology needed for accurate testing. But almost twenty years later, those samples would prove to be worth saving. Would investigators finally be able to close in on the man who’d kept their community gripped in fear for so many years?
