The Devil on Figueroa

For more than a decade, women were found murdered along and around Figueroa Street in South Los Angeles. Many of the victims were vulnerable, and their deaths received little attention. As the years passed, the killer continued to stalk the streets while the cases remained unsolved. In this rewind episode from 2018, Wendy and Beth examine the crimes of Chester Turner, the man later identified through DNA as one of Los Angeles' most prolific serial killers. They explore the devastating impact on the victims and their families, the investigative failures that allowed the murders to continue, and the wrongful conviction that left the real killer free to claim more lives. This episode was researched, scripted & edited by Wendy & Beth Williams. Thanks for listening! Thanks for listening! Until next time... look alive y’all, it's crazy out there!
