Happy Halloween Everyone! We decided that since it's the spookiest day of the year, we would celebrate by giving you guys two episodes this week, starting with Part One of a truly horrifying case that left both me and Rachel with nightmares. The case isn't Halloween related, however, this is a monster that could scare you any day of the year. We hope you enjoy....
William Bonin was one of three serial killers who would be given the moniker of "The Freeway Killer". During the years of 1979 and 1980, Bonin, along with four accomplices, would savagely rape, torture and murder at least 21 young men and boys, dumping their bodies along the California freeway systems. His level of sadism is unimaginable, and it goes without saying that we issue a strong trigger warning for this episode. Join Rachel and I while we discuss Bonin's horrific childhood, his early stints in prison, and the first several murders that he committed with the help of his four friends, Vernon Butts, Greg Miley, William Pugh, and James Munroe.
