6 - "I'm Just Warning You"

Before I started this podcast, I never would have thought that Racine had many murders.

I knew that sure, there were bad elements. Drug deals gone wrong, gangs, domestic violence that ended tragically, but I never expected so many unsolved homicides. In the last episode I only investigated up to 1983. A listener however, has pointed out three unsolved homicides that really stuck out to her. So I thought I'd spend a little bit of time on this episode detailing those cases to see if I can add to the pattern I already developed. One that I missed from 1983, one from 1987, and one from 1990.

I've had a lot of positive feedback from listeners. Most people have nothing but good things to say. It's all, Very encouraging and supportive. They thank me for trying to bring this cold case back to light. To perhaps get new leads and new tips. They are happy that I am doing this. And wish me the best of luck in a truly sincere way. But i've also had a few people come at me with fairly strong negativity. Listeners have told me that People are suspicious that I am trying to find out who might know something. Who might be willing to talk 45 years later. Or that I’m trying to locate a specific person or persons who knew something but were too afraid to talk.  

I've also Received warnings from multiple people. They say i better be careful . The killer(s), yes killers as in plural, more than one, may be looking for me if if i get too close to the truth.

Do I believe there is a band of serial killers in their 60s, hanging out together in Racine, with their earbuds in listening to this podcast, sharpening their blades,  and plotting to keep themselves hidden in the shadows?
