In this episode, we examine the horrific Fox Hollow murders, highlighting how serial killers often prey on vulnerable populations, in this case, those within the 1980s Midwest gay club scene.

This is the kind of parenting that gives therapists like us job security for life. Part 1 of our Ruby Franke investigation takes us behind the scenes of her seemingly perfect online persona.

We also discuss the lack of intervention from her husband, and the obvious discomfort of the children on camera. This is the beginning of a disturbing story, so buckle up.
