Welcome to Boston Confidential, Bean Towns True Crime Podcast.

0:11.7

Boston is a great city, but there's more to it than the Freedom Trail in Fenway Park.

0:16.9

There's a startling underbelly to the city, and Boston Confidential will take you on a guided tour of the hub of the universe, Boston, Massachusetts.

0:26.1

It's a little dry, but I think you can get through it. The book provides a chronological view

1:42.4

of the case, and there's information in that book that is really

nowhere else. There's also a special on A&E biography about the case, naturally entitled

1:53.9

The Boston Strangler. I think I had linked it in the first episode, and if I didn't,
