Fruitloops Short is the no frills version of our regular episode.

In this episode, Beth and Wendy discuss the case of Howell Emanuel Donaldson III, who shocked the nation in 2017 when he was arrested for a string of seemingly random killings in Tampa, Florida. Dubbed the Seminole Heights Killer, Donaldson targeted four victims over 51 days, sparking fear and a massive manhunt. A break came when he handed a coworker a bag containing the murder weapon, leading to his arrest and eventual conviction.

This episode was researched & scripted by Wendy & Beth Williams and edited by Minnie Williams.
