In this episode, I delve into the chilling case of John Ackroyd, an Oregon highway mechanic turned serial killer whose crimes spanned over two decades. Convicted of the 1978 murder of Kaye Turner and the 1990 disappearance and presumed murder of his stepdaughter, Rachanda Pickle. Despite his conviction, he is suspected of numerous other unsolved disappearances and murders across the state. Join me as I unravel the twisted story of John Ackroyd and the haunting legacy he left behind as well as the chilling reminder of how serial offenders can evade capture for years, often exploiting their positions and familiarity with their local areas to commit their crimes.
