On September 8th, The Fall Line begins a 3-part miniseries on an unsolved string of cold cases known as the Atlanta Lover's Lane Murders. In 1977--before the Atlanta Child Murders would grip the city--an unknown gunman stalked Atlanta's parks, looking for couples who'd sought the privacy of unofficial 'lover's lanes.' Between January and March, he killed three people and critically wounded three more. As the Atlanta Police Department worked to identify him without alerting him to their stakeout plans, local press were at first unaware of the story--and then told to suppress it.

True crime podcasting often forgets that, underneath the gore and sensationalism, there are real people, real families, and real justice waiting to be served. 
The Fall Line® is an antidote to that oversight - focused on ethical, deep-dive coverage of missing people, unsolved homicides, and unidentified persons called John and Jane Does. 
We present carefully crafted true crime stories, thorough research and in-depth interviews with families, law enforcement, and experts. And we bring calls to action, so engaged true crime listeners can do their part to resolve cold cases.
Join us to learn about victims and survivors you’ve never heard of. . .  and why their cases were ignored in the first place.
