    011: Fritz Haarmann 'The Butcher of Hanover' Part 2

    Welcome to our first two part episode. After researching this case, we decided we needed to spread this over two episodes due to the shear amount of detail and murders by this man in the early 1900's. Listen to part 1 before listening to this episode. Fritz Haarmann murdered at least 24 young men and boys over the course of six years between 1918-1924. He raped, murdered and dismembered each victim before dumping their bodies mainly in the Leine River, Hanover, Germany. He is arguably one of Germany's worst serial murderers. Join us as we look over his life and the subsequent murders that follow. - - - Follow us @ Instagram: @RTRSpod Twitter: @RTRSpod Facebook Group: Right to Remain Silent Pod Email: righttoremainsilentpod@gmail.com Patreon: www.patreon.com/rtrspod - - - Sources: Wikipedia - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fritz_Haarmann Criminal Minds Wiki - https://criminalminds.fandom.com/wiki/Fritz_Haarmann Murderpedia - https://murderpedia.org/male.H/h/haarmann.htm Find a Grave - https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/15714811/friedrich-heinrich_karl-haarmann The Criminal Code - https://www.thecriminalcode.com/index.php/2017/07/04/the-butcher-of-hanover-pedophilemurderer-fritz-haarman/ - - - Thanks to: Matt Pearson for the intro music Michael Perkins for the artwork

    008: Helen McCourt

    In February, 1988, 22 year old Helen McCourt from Billinge, Merseyside went missing on her way home from work and was never seen again. It was quickly discovered that local landlord, Ian Simms was the culprit but the police force had the difficult task of proving that Helen was dead AND that Ian Simms had killed her. Using the new technique at the time of familial DNA, they were able to gather enough evidence to convict Simms. Helen's mother, Marie McCourt still fights for the rights of missing-murdered victims families to be able to have a funeral with the nationally known, Helen's Law.

    Sophie Lancaster was a 20 year old woman from Bacup, Lancashire who was murdered for being different. Sophie and her boyfriend, Robert Maltby were walking through a park on their way home late one in evening in August 2007 when they were both brutally attacked by a gang of teenage youths. During this weeks case, we discuss the issues we had during our teenage years for dressing similarly to Sophie and Rob and why this case was a difficult one for us to cover.
