Serial killers are not just a modern affliction. Today's episode briefly covers six cases of serial murder from the 19th century. Three solved and three unsolved. These include the Kelly Family, the Austin Axe Murderer, Thames Torso Murders, Mary Ann Cotton, and Dr. Thomas Cream. And, a true-crime aficionado, Bridget Weitzel, joins the show!
