Episode 18 Robert Berdella; The Butcher of Kansas City


Join the hosts for this episode, Lindsay and Jenn of Corpus Delicti as they discuss a story that is truly beyond bizarre: the case of Robert Berdella, known as the Butcher of Kansas City. This story is perfect for Beyond Bizarre, as Berdella was the owner of Bob's Bizarre Bazaar in Kansas City. His curio shop was not what he is famous for, however – it was his torture and murder of six young men between 1984 and 1987 that earned him his fearsome nickname. When one of his captives, who had suffered horrific abuse at Berdella’s hands, managed to escape and alert police, authorities unearthed unspeakable horror in the home of the Butcher, including photographs of his sexual assault of young men, evidence of grotesque methods of physical torture , and a skull buried in the backyard. Listen as Lindsay and Jenn relate the tale of the infamous Butcher of Kansas City.
