Jake Bird was known by the media as "The Tacoma Ax-Killer." He was arrested and charged with two murders and convicted of one. But, Bird claimed that he murdered many more. He was a serial killer, rapist, and burglar who committed his crimes in the 1930s and 1940s.
Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the crimes of Jake Bird. Police believe that he is responsible for 11 murders but Bird claimed he killed 44. If Bird was telling the truth, this makes him one of the most prolific killers in US history. Jake’s crimes are a lesser-known part of history, but that doesn’t make his crimes any less heinous than those of well-known killers.
