#121: Serial-Gerard Schaefer Jr, Con-Steven J Russell, Fall from the tree cocktail

Brutal, bizarre, and boozy podcast

This week Jane tells us about suspected serial killer Gerard Schaefer Jr. who also had the nickname “Killer Cop.” He was convicted of kidnapping 2 teens and then later convicted of killing 2 other teen girls. After his convictions, he wrote many stories that he claimed were fiction but privately told a friend the stories were true. It’s unknown how many victims he had but is suspected to be several dozen.

Deklan tells us about the conman Steven J Russell. He had a pattern of getting convicted for crimes and then escaping jail. Through his many fraud cases and escapes he ended up with a long sentence of 144 years in jail.

We also drink the Fall From the Tree cocktail.
