Summary

The conclusion to the Cleveland Strangler. Anthony Sowell is a serial killer who was active in the Cleveland, Ohio area between 2007 and 2009. Sowell was arrested in 2009 after the police discovered the remains of eleven women in and around his house on Imperial Avenue in Cleveland. The victims of Sowell's crimes were predominantly African-American women who were vulnerable and had struggled with addiction and poverty. Sowell targeted these women, many of who were sex workers, and lured them to his home under false pretenses before assaulting, raping, and strangling them. He then buried their bodies in and around his property, where they remained hidden for months and years. Sowell's crimes were significant due to their gruesome nature, the high number of victims, and the fact that they took place over an extended period of time without being detected by law enforcement. The case drew widespread attention from the media and the public, highlighting the issues of poverty, addiction, and violence against vulnerable women. Support us! Want ad free listening?
