True Crime All The Time Unsolved

From December 1884 to December 1885, an unknown killer terrorized the town of Austin, Texas. This person murdered 8 people and injured many more. The killer started out targeting African-American women who worked as servants in affluent Austin homes. For this reason, you will often see this case referred to as The Servant Girl Annihilator case, a term penned by an author back in the 1880s. Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the Austin Ax Murders. The crimes committed by this perpetrator were horrific. Many of these women were dragged out of the home in the middle of the night and murdered with an ax. The killer left behind a signature or calling card in many of the murders. But questions abound in this case that may lead to clues about the killer. Why did the killers select the victims he did? Was it because he had some type of intimate knowledge of the homes that these servants lived/worked in? This case is also intriguing for the fact that many people have tried to tie this case in with Jack The Ripper. Could it be that the Austin ax murderer left for London and began murdering there?

On November 17th, 1978, just before closing time, four young workers at a Burger Chef in Speedway, Indiana were forced out of the restaurant. A small amount of cash was taken and police found the bodies of all four workers a couple of days later. All four had been killed. Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss this mysterious case.

In the early 1970s, in California, a number of women went missing while hitchhiking in the Santa Rosa and Sonoma County area. All of the women were later found dead. And the number of victims is debated but most believe there are at least 7 and mostly likely 8 victims. To make matters even worse, there were a large number of other unsolved homicides around that time in the area that could possibly be related. Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss these women who lost their lives while hitchhiking.
