The Oakland County Child Killer Part 2

Author: Emash Digital & Mike Ferguson, Mike Morford March 15, 2026 Duration: 1:41:55

The Oakland County child killer was responsible for the murders of at least 4 children in Oakland County, MI, in 1976 and 1977. Technically, we don't know whether it's a single killer or multiple killers. What we do know is that these murders shocked that area of Michigan and forever changed the lives of the people there, not just the families of the victims, but the entire community.

Join Mike and Morf for the second and last part of a discussion on the Oakland County child killer. In this episode we focus more on the known evidence in the case and dive into the plethora of suspects that police have identified over the years. We also had a discussion with former FBI profiler Julia Cowley, who hosts the podcast - the Consult; real FBI profilers, and we talked about what her years of experience profiling killers like this tells her about this case and the killer.
