đ§ The Guilty Files: Uncovered â The Green River Killer" He didnât just stalk his victims⌠he hunted them. And for nearly two decades, no one could stop him."
In this Uncovered episode of The Guilty Files, host Brian King-Sharp strips away the rumors, myths, and media frenzy to deliver the cold, hard facts of one of Americaâs most prolific serial killers: Gary Ridgway, the Green River Killer.This case is not about a single horrifying momentâitâs about years of calculated brutality. Brian takes us back to the early 1980s, when the first bodies surfaced along the banks of Washingtonâs Green River.
 As the death toll quietly climbed, Ridgway slipped through the cracks of a system unprepared for a predator who could blend in so well.With a steady hand and a copâs eye for detail, Brian breaks down the timeline of Ridgwayâs killing spree, the investigative missteps, and the eventual breakthrough that led to his arrestâdecades and dozens of victims later. You'll hear about the forensics, the use of early DNA technology, and the psychological profile that baffled experts at the time.And then there's the part that still chills investigators to this day: Ridgwayâs own wordsâhis calm, remorseless confessions, and how he used his ordinary life as a mask for unimaginable horror.This is not a dramatization. This is the real story, laid out clean and sharp. But be warned: some of the details in this episode are disturbing and may not be suitable for all listeners.
