The Texarkana Moonlight Murders

In 1946, an unidentified person dubbed "The Phantom of Texarkana" committed a series of murders and attacks. They began in Texarkana, Texas, and culminated in Texarkana, Arkansas. These murders terrified the area and caused residents to buy guns and begin locking their doors. Were all of these murders committed by the same person or were there multiple killers roaming the area?

Join Mike and Morf for the 250th episode of Criminology as they discuss the Texarkana moonlight murders. The police left no stone unturned in trying to identify the murderer. Over the years, many different people have been suspected. Some even believe that these murders were the early work of the Zodiac killer.
