  • The Green River Killer - Gary Ridgway (Part 1)

    The Green River Killer - Gary Ridgway (Part 1)
    Jul 6 2026
    In the summer of 1982, it became obvious that a serial killer was operating in the Tacoma area and dumping his victims in the waters of the Green River. In time, The Green River Killer, as the press soon dubbed him, would claim a staggering number of victims to become the most prolific serial killer in American history, a title he would hold until relatively recently.

  • Blanche Taylor Moore, The Oldest Woman on Death Row (Part 2)

    Blanche Taylor Moore, The Oldest Woman on Death Row (Part 2)
    Jul 2 2026

    When the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation opened an investigation and Blanche was charged with the attempted murder, the arrest came as a shock to those who knew her. How was it possible that someone they all knew as “a sweet, Christian lady”—was an attempted murderer? And if she had been cunning enough to hide that side of herself from her community, what else had she been hiding?
