The Lonely Hearts Murders

The Lonely Hearts Ad’s gained massive popularity in the 20th century and gave lonely singles a way to meet other people looking for love and companionship. However the ads exposed peoples vulnerabilities, and allowed fraudsters, adventurers and murderers to find easy victims. In this episode, we’ll learn about how one such crook was convinced to let one of his victims become his partner in crime, and about the series of crimes and murders they would go on commit together.
