S. 14 Ep. 11 The Murder of Kevin Clewer Beyond the Rainbow Podcast
-
- True Crime
Missing but not forgotten LGBTQ person is Aaron Cody Fortner. 31 year old Kevin Clewer was on a night out with his friend John. The two men were bar hopping in the Boystown gayborhood of Chicago in March of 2004. Kevin would leave John at one of the bars as he left with a young man who called himself Fernando. Kevin's body would be found in his apartment by his father the following evening. The case has gone cold and has some eerie similarities to the case of Phillip DiMartino, who I covered just a few episodes ago. True Crime Quickie is from Canada. The Murder and Dismemberment of Audrey Trudeau.
