S11, Chapter 5: Killing Binge

"We've all heard women scream in horror films ... still, we know that no-one is really screaming. Why? Simply because an actress can't produce some sounds that convince us that something vile and heinous is happening. If you ever heard that tape, there is just no possible way that you'd not begin crying and trembling. I doubt you could listen to more than a full sixty seconds of it." Roy Norris, describing his recollections of the audio tape the pair had created of Shirley Ledford's rape and torture. — Support the show: patreon.com/tapesfromthedarkside — Audio Sources: The Toolbox Killer (2021) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt15575214/ — Music Credit: 20six Hundred https://20sixhundred.bandcamp.com/ Augusta Treverorum https://linktr.ee/trvrrm — Follow me. https://www.instagram.com/thedarksidepod/ https://www.facebook.com/tapesfromthedarkside/ https://www.facebook.com/groups/tapesfromthedarkside — More links.

S11, Chapter 2: California Men's Colony

Two men are locked inside the California Men’s Colony — a medium-security state prison tucked away in the rolling hills of San Luis Obispo. It wasn’t a fortress like San Quentin. It didn’t house the state’s most violent criminals. And its reputation was far from what you’d expect of a place that would soon become a breeding ground for one of the most sadistic criminal partnerships in modern history.

S11, Chapter 3: Murder Mac

No credits this week because I didn't want to delay this episode any longer. For their plan to work, Larry Bittaker knew they couldn’t rely on just any car. They needed something bigger… something that could trap a victim inside. In February of 1979, with money from Norris, he bought it—a silver-gray 1977 GMC Vandura. The van was windowless on one side, with a sliding door large enough to swallow someone whole. Bittaker later admitted that when he first saw that door, he knew. They could pull up close to a girl, slide it open, and drag her inside without anyone noticing. The pair gave the vehicle a name. To them, it wasn’t just a van. It was their “Murder Mac.” — Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/tapesfromthedarkside — Sources: Partners in True Crime https://www.partnersintruecrime.com/ Music: Augusta Treverorum https://linktr.ee/trvrrm
