In the first years of the 2000s, a ruthless serial killer roamed the streets of Mexico City. Juana Barraza, a wrestler with the nickname of ‘The Silent Woman’, grew up with an alcoholic, negligent mother who was incapable of love, and was quick to sell her daughter for a single beer. The relationship between the two drove Juana to gruesome acts as an adult, attacking and killing 40 old women, if not more, specifically targeting women who are 60 and older, who live alone. Join us as we dive into the life, crime, and prosecution of Juana Barraza.

This week things are slightly switched up. Instead of continuing on the topic of women in crime, we dive into the multiple true crime media that is available to stream. As shows that I'm currently watching or have recently watched are never discussed on here, here's just a small list of what is being viewed in hopes of giving recommendations for when not knowing what to watch.
