Description

In this episode, we delve into the chilling cases of California’s Freeway Killers, a group of serial murderers who terrorized the state’s highways in the 1970s. This episode focuses on the reign of Patrick Kearney, also known as the Trash Bag Killer, and William Bonin, whose dark and methodical murders left a trail of devastation. We explore how investigators slowly unravelled the horrifying pattern of missing young men, many from the LGBTQ+ community, and the shocking confessions that followed. It’s a gripping tale of manipulation, violence, and justice in a time when the open roads held deadly secrets.

Guys, you've been gone for a year - maybe asking people to pledge themselves to you shouldn't be the very first thing you talk about.
