Almost everyone, even those who are not into true crime, can probably give you at least a couple of examples of serial killers that have never been caught.

Most people have heard of Jack the Ripper. In 1888, he murdered at least five women in London's poor Whitechapel district.

But did you know that the equivalence of Jack the Ripper was prowling around the South in the

United States about a hundred years ago?

It's very likely that you've never heard this story.

The murderer took advantage of the racism and segregation present in those years, spreading

fear among African-American women.

He was even petty enough to tell one woman

that she was not attractive enough to be killed by him. His audacity grew gradually, as authorities

ignored his crimes for the most part, probably due to his choice of victims. The Ripper killed

around 20 young and beautiful women in the streets of Atlanta, mysteriously emerging

from and then disappearing back into the fog.

Discretion is advised.

This is 10-minute murder, brief and bingeable true crime.

My name is Joe, I'm the host, and thank you for joining today.

And let's just go ahead and address this right at the beginning. Yes, I sound different. I've got a grizzly bear living in the back

of my throat, and he's made a home back there scratching and clawing, and that's what it sounds like

anyway. I'm not operating in 100%. And that's why you only had one episode last week. I wasn't feeling

very well. And I feel a lot better now. Still not at 100%, but we're going to give it a go and please

try to ignore the fact that I sound this way. The alternative was to just keep not doing episodes until

I sounded normal again, but who knows when that's going to happen. I spent the last couple of days on the couch under a blanket and watching different TV shows and movies and stuff like that.

And speaking of, I'm 100% sure you've heard of this if you have Netflix, but the Adam Project on Netflix is fantastic.
