About this listen
As America lived through prohibition and the Roaring 20s, a transient killer known as the Gorilla Man Strangler moved across states and eventually international borders. Leaving behind a trail of brutal murders.
Researcher and author Alvin Esau joins the show to cover the life and crimes of one of the world's first documented serial killers.
Alvin explores his troubled upbringing, early criminal behaviour and the series of murders that shocked North America. We also discuss the remarkable police work that took place decades before modern forensics.
Beyond the case itself, we widen the conversation to examine the societal conditions that can contribute to serial offending, and ask whether the modern world has changed in ways that make such offenders less common today.
