"Throwaways: The Classroom Detectives," the fourth installment of our series, takes a remarkable turn as we step into a classroom where a high school project transcends the confines of conventional education. Forget the simple science fair exhibits of terrariums or the explosive reactions of a Mentos-dropped Coke volcano. This is where academia and real-world investigation collide, thanks to the innovative spirit of Alex Campbell and his extraordinary class of teenagers.

In this episode, we dive into the story of how a school project evolved into a groundbreaking forensic examination. Alex, a visionary teacher, led his students through a hands-on criminal investigation, enlisting the expertise of an FBI profiler to delve into the haunting patterns surrounding the Redhead Murders. This collaboration wasn't just about theoretical learning; it was a pivotal moment that shifted the trajectory of our investigation by confirming a suspicion we dared not voice alone—that a serial killer was indeed at work.

The students' journey into the heart of forensic science and criminal psychology offers a unique glimpse into the power of education when it steps out of the textbook and into the trenches of practical application. Their work not only provided critical insight into the case but also empowered a new generation to understand the impact they can make on the world.

"Throwaways: The Classroom Detectives" is an ode to the curious minds that refused to let the history of these Jane Does remain buried in obscurity. The episode celebrates the confluence of youthful enthusiasm and methodical, expert analysis, reminding us that sometimes, the key to unraveling the most complex puzzles comes from the most unexpected places.

Join us for an inspiring tale of mentorship, innovation, and the relentless pursuit of justice, where a class project becomes a public service in the truest sense. As we unfold the details of their investigation, we reaffirm our belief in the next generation as agents of change, and perhaps, bearers of hope for cold case resolutions. They also provided a name for our killer – the Bible Belt Strangler.
