    The Grim Sleeper

    The Grim Sleeper

    The women of South Central, LA didn’t realize they were being hunted by a vicious killer in 1988. Police hadn’t yet connected a series of murdered women to the same man, but after an intended victim survived an attempt on her life, they realized that a serial killer was preying on women in the community. It would take decades, but the man known as the Grim Sleeper would eventually face justice.

Great podcast

I love this true crime podcast! She covers a variety of cases, many of them I’d never heard of before. Autumn presents all sides and theories and then gives you hers (and most likely) at the very end. Great format and very entertaining!
