Florida is known for sunshine, beaches… and some of the most chilling crimes in American history. In this episode, Manda takes listeners deep into the darker side of the Sunshine State. She briefly revisits several of Florida’s most infamous murder cases, each disturbing in its own right, before turning the spotlight on one of the most notorious serial killers tied to the state: Henry Lee Lucas. Lucas claimed responsibility for hundreds of murders across the country, but how much of his story was truth and how much was manipulation, coercion, or myth? Manda unpacks his crimes, his confessions, and the controversies that still haunt investigators and victims’ families today. This episode explores the unsettling questions behind one of true crime’s most debated figures and reminds us that Florida’s criminal history is far darker than its postcard image. ⚠️ Trigger warning for child abuse, sexual assault, bestiality, necrophilia, mutilation, dismemberment, cannibalism & murder. Please take care while listening.
