Who Was the Green River Killer? Inside Gary Ridgway’s Brutal Murders

The episode examines the life and horrific crimes of Gary Ridgway, known as the Green River Killer, who became America's most prolific confirmed serial murderer. Between 1982 and 1998, Ridgway targeted vulnerable women on the margins of society, successfully evading detection for decades by maintaining a façade of ordinary working-class life. The narrative details how his traumatic upbringing and psychological disturbances fueled a lethal cycle of violence and necrophilia. Investigators eventually utilized breakthrough DNA technology and microscopic paint analysis to secure his arrest in 2001. To avoid the death penalty, Ridgway entered a controversial plea bargain, confessing to dozens of murders in exchange for life imprisonment. Ultimately, the source highlights the evolution of forensic science and the enduring impact of his crimes on the Pacific Northwest.
