The Serial Killer Podcast

The story of Gary Leon Ridgway is a challenging story. Not just because so many books, films, and documentaries have already been made about him, but because there simply are so many victims and to struggle with how proper respect to their memory can be given. Much ado has been made in the media, and in previous episodes, about how most of the killer’s victims were prostitutes. I wonder if the same emphasis had been made on the victims’ profession if they had been accountants. Well, to be honest, I actually do think much had been made of such a scenario. A serial killer killing dozens of female accountants had truly been quite unique.Become a Patron today: https://www.patreon.com/theserialkillerpodcastWebsite: https://www.theserialkillerpodcast.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/theskpodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/serialkillerpodTwitter: https://twitter.com/serialkillerpodSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-serial-killer-podcast.

Imagine if you will, dear listener, several nights earlier, the 17th of July, 1982. The by now well-known maroon pick-up truck slowed to a stop and the driver leant out of his window at the young woman standing alone, under a streetlamp. Hands on hips, Gisele Lovvorn, strode towards him. "Looking for a good time, honey?" she called in a weary voice. He gestured her into the vehicle.Become a Patron today: https://www.patreon.com/theserialkillerpodcastWebsite: https://www.theserialkillerpodcast.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/theskpodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/serialkillerpodTwitter: https://twitter.com/serialkillerpodSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-serial-killer-podcast.

Once on the road, the girl's tries to give the man directions to a place she knows. The man just shakes his head and says he wants to do it outside, it’s such a pretty night and he doesn’t want to mess up his car. ‘Don’t worry’, he says, ‘it’s not far, you’ll be back in no time’.
