Strap in, we're telling our first story about a serial killer this week. Charlie tells us about Rodney Alcala - an academically gifted young man, who in a creepy twist was even tutored in photography by Roman Polanski himself. Using a camera would eventually become a method to committing his awful crimes on both coasts of America.
