Summary

True Crime Tuesday presents: Monsters On The Loose: Three Unsolved Murders in Prohibition Era San Diego with Researcher/Author, Richard L. Carrico!

In MONSTERS ON THE LOOSE, award-winning author and historian Richard L. Carrico pieces fragments of evidence together for three cold cases, shedding light on a dark chapter in San Diego's history.

More than ninety years after the murders, Carrico emerges as an advocate for the victims, meticulously reconstructing their stories. Immersed in dusty files, long-forgotten oral histories, and newly discovered investigation records, his primary objective remains unwavering: to seek justice for the three young women. With no witnesses to the crimes, the significance of circumstantial evidence and speculation, both then and now, became paramount.

On today's TCT, Richard tells the tragic and true stories of three women murdered early in the year, 1931: Virginia Brooks, Louise Teuber, and Hazel Bradshaw. He also talks about the possible suspects, motives, opportunities, and even thinks he may have solved one of the cases!
