"Dr. Death's" Ex Talks How He Maimed Patients, Crippled His Best Friend, and When He Showed Up To Her House Covered In Blood


Listen Later

We sit down with Wendy Young, the ex-girlfriend of Christopher Duntsch—better known as Dr. Death. Duntsch, a once-promising neurosurgeon, left a trail of maimed and murdered patients before his eventual conviction and life sentence.

Wendy shares firsthand accounts of his disturbing behavior, from his professional downfall to his personal descent into chaos. She recounts the terrifying moments when Duntsch broke into her home covered in blood, the bizarre ransom note written in his own hand, and the emotional toll of raising his children while grappling with the reality of his crimes.

This is an episode you don’t want to miss. Tune in for an inside look at the monster behind the mask and the people who survived his destruction.
