One by one, the discovery of ten bodies in the New England area across multiple states has made headlines over the past few weeks. It's a case that has people asking is there a serial killer currently operating in New England, and leaving a trail of bodies behind?

Join Mike and Morf as they discuss whether there is an active serial killer in New England. Some of these bodies had been deceased for so long that only skeletal remains were left while others were found hours after they died. One of these victims was even found while they were still alive, though unresponsive. Although there is a lot of speculation online, where does the evidence point?

You'll hear a methodical reconstruction of each episode's subject, providing context and perspective that goes deeper than a standard retelling. This true crime podcast is built for those who appreciate a detailed narrative, released consistently every weekend. The result is a engaging and thoughtful examination of criminal history, one famous case at a time.
