Show Notes

It sounds like an urban legend — someone sneaks into your apartment through the bathroom mirror. But for Ruthie Mae McCoy, this wasn’t folklore. In 1987 Chicago, Ruthie called 911 to report someone breaking into her home… through the walls. What followed was a brutal murder that police dismissed for too long — and a haunting reminder of how the most vulnerable are often unheard. This week, we unpack the terrifying truth behind the murder that inspired Candyman and ask: how could something so unbelievable be so real?
