Edward Wayne Edwards is an American Serial Killer. He escaped from jail twice, became a “reformed criminal,” became a family man, wrote an autobiography, went on TV shows, radio shows, and did motivational speaking….all while traveling around the United States and murdering young people. He was convicted of 5 murders, but is suspected of possible dozens more. His name has even been thrown in the Zodiac Killer suspect mix. This episode is a wild ride.
