The Curious Murder of Mary Ekhart 

Jump to the AD-FREE Safe House Edition

Episode 35 goes deep on a case mentioned in my book “The First Celebrity Serial Killer,” as one of the murders Alfred Knapp confessed to.  Mary Ekhart, a young woman from Dayton, Ohio, separated from her husband and went to live in Cincinnati, where she had a lead on a job in a candy factory. A few days later, her body was found dead in a rooming house, and police tracked down every lead trying to find the mysterious stranger seen lurking in front of the house on the morning of the day of her murder.
