Meeting Room (70)

The Kingsbury Run Murders, also known as the Torso Murders, remain one of the most heinous northeast Ohio crimes.

Between 1935 and 1938, a serial killer murdered and dismembered at least 12 victims - only 2 of which were ever positively identified. The killer is officially unidentified, yet researchers are quite certain who committed these horrible crimes. Mazie Adams from the Cleveland Police Historical Society presents on details of these crimes and tells what is known 88 years later and what still remains a mystery.
