Welcome to a gripping series that delves into the most heinous acts committed against men, women, and children. In each episode we examine the evidence, circumstances, and even the motivations that drive these perpetrators to inflict unimaginable pain and suffering.
Brace yourself, for this show is not for the faint-hearted; we hold nothing back. Prepare for explicit content, graphic descriptions, and violent scenes that will leave an indelible mark.
Having served in law enforcement for 16 years, my final decade was spent as a street cop in Atlanta, Georgia. Drawing from my extensive experience, my approach to each case is straightforward: we follow the trail of facts and evidence, unafraid of where it may lead us. Thank you for embarking on this True Crime Odyssey with us.

TCO EP:60 John List
John Emil List, born on September 17, 1925, gained infamy as an American mass murderer and fugitive. His heinous crimes took place on November 9, 1971, when he meticulously planned and executed the murders of his wife, mother, and three children in their Westfield, New Jersey home. List's careful planning allowed him to evade suspicion for almost a month.
After committing the murders, List assumed a new identity, remarried, and managed to elude capture for nearly 18 years. However, his reign as a fugitive came to an end on June 1, 1989, when the story of his crimes was featured on the television program America's Most Wanted. Following his arrest in Virginia, he was extradited to New Jersey to face justice.
In court, List was convicted on five counts of first-degree murder and received a sentence of five consecutive life imprisonments. This meant that he would not be eligible for parole for nearly 75 years. List cited critical financial problems and his belief that his family was straying from their religious faith as motivations for his heinous acts. He believed that killing them would secure their souls a place in Heaven, where he hoped to join them eventually.
List spent the remainder of his life behind bars and passed away in prison in 2008 at the age of 82.

TCO EP:56 The Yorkshire Ripper
Peter Sutcliffe, a notorious British murderer famously known as the Yorkshire Ripper, unleashed a reign of terror upon the nation between 1975 and 1980, claiming the lives of at least 13 innocent women and subjecting seven others to brutal assaults. However, his sinister activities can be traced back to 1969, when he committed his earliest known attack. Miraculously, his victim survived but chose not to press charges, unknowingly allowing a monster to roam freely.
As Sutcliffe's heinous acts continued, a wave of fear swept through the northern regions of England, leaving communities paralyzed and desperate for justice. The ensuing manhunt spanned years, consuming an astonishing 2.5 million hours of police work. Yet, this pursuit of the Yorkshire Ripper was marred by a series of setbacks and missteps. The investigation was plagued by a lack of regard for Sutcliffe's victims, many of whom were sex workers, and a cruel hoax that cunningly diverted the attention of law enforcement.
Finally, in 1981, the long-awaited breakthrough arrived when Sutcliffe was apprehended and ultimately convicted. His capture brought a sense of relief to a nation haunted by his monstrous actions. However, the chilling tale of the Yorkshire Ripper did not fade into obscurity. Over the years, it has continued to captivate the public's imagination, becoming a subject of fascination in true-crime podcasts and even inspiring the creation of the gripping 2020 Netflix documentary, The Ripper.
Sadly, the chapter of Peter Sutcliffe's life came to a close in November 2020, as he passed away at the age of 74. Yet, the scars left by his crimes remain etched in the collective memory of a nation, serving as a reminder of the darkness that can lurk within even the most ordinary of individuals.

Customer Reviews
True Crime
Love the podcast. Your input and story telling is excellent Thank you
One of the best!
I really enjoy this podcast and here’s why:
1.) Brian is a former police officer who can offer an expert perspective when telling the story.
2.) His voice is so smooth….it’s like butter…...that southern accent….I’m here for it.
3.) Finally, the intro is so freaking scary that I listened to in ONCE and can never listen to it again. I get the shivers thinking about it!
Well done, Brian!
