One was that of the Stocking Strangler, believed to be a black man who targeted elderly white women and the other belonged to United States Army Specialist William Henry Hance who was stationed at Fort Benning on the Georgia-Alabama border. Between 1977 and 1978, Hance murdered three women near or at Fort Benning and sent taunting letters to the local authorities attempting to blame the crimes on an organization known as the Forces of Evil.

Send us a text During the 1960’s Catholic priests were much more revered than they are today and certainly nobody would have suspected a man of the cloth to commit murder. So, in April of 1960 when schoolteacher and former beauty queen 25-year-old Irene Garza’s deceased body was discovered in a canal a few days after giving confession to Father John Feit, it was hard to believe that the young priest could have been responsible. Despite evidence against Father Feit, Irene’s murder went cold for fifty years. This is the true harrowing tale of the monster that lived behind the priest cloths.

Send us a text In February of 2021 23 -year-old Sandra Birchmore, a pregnant teacher’s aide at a Boston area elementary school, was found dead in her Canton, Massachusetts apartment. Her death was initially ruled as a suicide by asphyxia. However, Sandra’s family members and friends did not believe the findings and pushed for an investigation which resulted in the closed case suicide to be blown wide open and her death ruled a homicide a year later. Prosecutors now allege that Sandra was killed by Stoughton, Massachusetts police officer Matthew Farwell to cover up a nearly-decade-long scheme of grooming and abuse that she suffered from not only him but two other Stoughton officers as well which included Matthew’s twin brother William Farwell and former Stoughton deputy police chief Robert Devine after she joined their police youth program as a teenager.
