In 1911, Atlanta was terrorised by a series of brutal murders. Dozens of young Black women were found with their throats cut, and newspapers soon gave the killer a name — the Atlanta Ripper. Fear swept the city as police made arrests but no progress, and the murders exposed the deep racial divides of the time. In this episode, we trace the history, the victims, and the unanswered question that still lingers: who was the Atlanta Ripper?
