In between 1926 and 1928, a series of abductions and murders of young boys occurred in Riverside County, California in a town called Wineville. The killer was a sadistic psychopath, whose own mother enabled his behavior. She was so devoted to him, that she took part in one of the murders and tried to help cover up the others. This killer would eventually be taken down by his own niece, a woman whose brother had spent years suffering from the abuse inflicted upon him by their uncle and very own grandmother.
