Episode 29: Gennady Mikhasevich.
In the annals of Soviet serial killers, few figures stand as infamous and enigmatic as Gennady
Mikhasevich, a cunning con artist and prolific murderer who operated during the late 20th century.
Dubbed "The Vitebsk Strangler," Mikhasevich's reign of terror spanned across the Byelorussian
Soviet Socialist Republic, leaving a trail of death and destruction in his wake. His crimes, motivated
by greed and a lust for power, involved swindling, torture, and the murder of an estimated 36 women.
