This week, we begin our two-part investigation into the Lust Killer and the Shoe Fetish Slayer, Jerome Brudos. From a turbulent childhood that fed his unsettling behaviors that grew with him into adulthood, we follow the making of a serial killer across his early years, his marriage, and the events and obsessions that led up to his first murder. Join us as we unpack the early life of the man who would later become one of Oregon's most notorious serial killers. This episode ends where the violence begins: with Brudos' first murder. Join us next week for part two.
