In this week's episode, Emily brings us the first of a three-part case about Andrei Chikatilo.
Andrei Romanovich Chikatilo was a Soviet serial killer nicknamed The Butcher of Rostov, The Rostov Ripper, and The Red Ripper who sexually assaulted, murdered, and mutilated women and children between 1978 and 1990 in the Russian SFSR, the Ukrainian SSR, and the Uzbek SSR.
It goes without saying that this episode contains very disturbing material, so listener discretion is advised.
