Between 1991 and 1995, a seemingly ordinary postal worker living in suburban New York concealed a horrifying secret. Robert Yale Shulman targeted vulnerable sex workers, brutally murdering at least five women before dismembering their bodies and disposing of them in dumpsters across the region. This is the chilling true story of how a shy, introverted mail handler became one of New York's most brutal serial killers, and how dogged detective work finally brought him to justice.
This episode examines not just the crimes, but the systemic failures that allowed Shulman to prey on society's most vulnerable for years. From the tragic stories of his victims, including Lori Vasquez, Lisa Ann Warner, and Kelly Sue Bunting, to the controversial sentencing of his brother Barry, who helped cover up the murders.
