Fruitloops: Serial Killers of Color

Fruitloops has to take a break this week, but we didn't want to leave you hanging, so please enjoy this Video Club episode from 2023 when Fruitloops Video Club reviewed the docuseries Jared from Subway: Catching a Monster. Synopsis: “For almost a decade beginning in the early 2000s, there was no one more recognizable than Subway spokesman Jared Fogle, whose story of overcoming obesity through a diet of Subway sandwiches was an inspiration. But in 2015, Americans were stunned when authorities brought multiple charges of child endangerment against "Jared from Subway'' and his business partner, Russell Taylor. ID's new three-part series, JARED FROM SUBWAY: CATCHING A MONSTER, reveals the shocking, previously untold story of the investigation that exposed the monster insidiously lurking behind Fogle's charming persona and how his true nature as a child sex predator was finally revealed.” https://www.max.com/shows/jared-from-subway-catching-a-monster/dbc8c075-319e-455f-bfa9-b65bf84a9c1e Music “Blue Light Special” by Marlene Miller.

Wendy & Beth are taking a break this week, so please enjoy this episode from 2020, The Atlanta Child Murders Pt 2 (look for Pt 1 in your feed). Today we are talking about the Atlanta Child Murders. Between 1979 and 1981, children and teenagers were disappearing off the streets of Atlanta, later turning up dead, terrifying the entire city. At least 28 people in the Atlanta area, most of them young black boys and teenagers, were kidnapped and murdered. This case is complicated. So to do it justice, we felt we had to turn it into a two parter. We encourage you to check out our show notes for additional information about the case. Thanks for listening!
