RedHanded

In the 1970s the US was in the throes of a unique cultural phenomenon - the ‘satanic panic’. The devil and devil worshipping cults were everywhere and they were coming to get you. This week Hannah and Suruthi follow the case of the Fall River cult murders, a brutal killing spree carried out by a group of self-proclaimed devil worshippers that saw 2 young women bound, raped and tortured to death, and a third missing with only skull fragments and a harrowing story left behind.    See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Nathaniel Bar-Jonah was a terrifyingly single-minded man; his only focus in life was to hunt, rape, torture and kill children. His depravity became clear in early childhood, and due in part to a lack of consequences for his dangerous behaviour, things only escalated. Eventually Bar-Jonah was arrested and what police officers found in his house led to one of the most stomach churning investigations in US history. It appeared that Bar-Jonah had not only been eating his victims but also feeding them to his unsuspecting neighbours.    See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Kevin Green called 911 claiming that he had come home to find his pregnant wife, Dianna, had been brutally attacked. The beating was so vicious that Dianna lost her unborn baby, she lost her ability to speak and she completely lost her memory surrounding the attack.

Nothing was taken from the house, nothing was left behind, there was no sign of forced entry and no one reported seeing anyone suspicious in the area - police were stumped.
