The Devil’s Details

In this gripping true-crime dive, Goldy Locks and her father, veteran parole officer Henry Peter, unravel the terrifying story of Three Finger Jack, a charming predator who left a trail of bruised hearts and battered bodies across state lines. With a mutilated hand and a perfect lie, he manipulated women, hid his violent history, and slipped through the cracks of the justice system… until Henry connected the dots no one else could see.
Together, Goldy and Henry expose the dangerous psychology behind women who fall for inmates, the red flags most people ignore, and the explosive power of a scorned woman determined to survive. This tense, emotional episode leaves listeners questioning just how well they really know the people they trust, and how many monsters are still hiding in plain sight.
