Sorry for the delayed release, and thanks so much for your patience! This is our LAST Cold Case Dossier story. It's the tale of the Cleveland Torso Murders - a string of unsolved murders dating back to the 1930s. At least 12 victims were attributed to this grisly killer, all of which had been beheaded or dismembered in some way. We called in a friend and professional, Kate Wallinga of the Ignorance Was Bliss podcast to tell us her thoughts on who the killer might be.  Sources: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleveland_Torso_Murderer http://www.clevelandpolicemuseum.org/collections/torso-murders/ http://www.cleveland.com/metro/index.ssf/2013/06/film_about_the_cleveland_torso.html Join the Corpus Delicti Discussion Group on Facebook Support the show and gain early access to episodes as well as bonus content at patreon.com/corpusdelicti Into merch?
