The Atlanta Child Murders shocked the nation between 1979 and 1981, when over two dozen Black children and young men were found dead, leaving Atlanta in fear and confusion. This podcast revisits the chilling case, exploring the victims’ stories, the intense investigation, and the arrest of Wayne Williams—whose guilt is still debated decades later. Through interviews and historical insight, we uncover how race, politics, and media shaped the search for justice. Join us as we revisit this tragic chapter in American history and ask the question: did the real truth ever come to light?
