In episode 22 of Badger Bizarre, Scott and Mickey discuss the crime-ridden life of Edward Wayne Edwards and how he forever impacted a small community in southeast Wisconsin.

In August of 1980, a young teenage couple in Fort Atkinson went missing and were later found murdered. For 30 years, their murder went unsolved, until a surpring tip was called in to Jefferson County authorities in 2009, leading to the arrest of their killer, Ed Edwards.  The arrest would open a Pandora's Box of other crimes Edwards committed, including confessions to several other murders.

As his life of crime came to light, researchers and cold-case detectives today link Edwards to many other murders, some very famous, such as Jimmy Hoffa, Jon Benet Ramsey, and even the Black Dahlia, making Edwards, if true, potentially the most prolific serial killer in history.
