E85: Micheal Terry

This week, in episode 85, Beth and Wendy discuss Michael Devern Terry, a black man who killed six men in Atlanta between December 6, 1985 and October 20, 1986. We dive into the stats, the setting and some LBGTQ history in Atlanta, GA, and the killer's early life (9:31). We get into the timeline (19:15), followed by the investigation & arrest. Then "Where are they now?" (37:55), followed by our takeaways, shout outs and of course, some tips on how not to get murdered. Thanks for listening!
