(note: time stamps are without ads & may be off a little)
This is part two covering the case of Samuel Little, a serial killer who confessed to having committed 93 murders between 1970 and 2005, at least 50 of which have been verified by law enforcement. He has been called the most prolific serial killer in U.S. history.
First, we get back into the timeline (13:42). Then, we get into the investigation & arrest (22:35), the trial & the confessions (25:41) "Where are they now?" (34:30) followed by our takeaways and what we think made the perp snap (36:35).
As usual we close out the show with some tips on how not to get murdered and our shout outs (53:54).
This episode was researched & scripted by Wendy & Beth Williams.
Thanks for listening! This is a weekly podcast and new episodes drop every Thursday, so until next time... look alive guys, it's crazy out there!
