In this haunting episode, we go beyond the headlines to remember the victims of Hugo Selenski — the Pennsylvania man whose name became synonymous with horror after a mass grave was discovered in his Luzerne County backyard in 2003. While much of the media spotlight focused on Selenski’s strange behavior, jailbreaks, and courtroom theatrics, we turn our focus to the lives he destroyed.
Among the victims were Michael Kerkowski, a local pharmacist, and Tammy Fassett, his girlfriend. Their families spent years seeking answers and justice. But they weren’t the only ones: authorities uncovered the remains of at least three more individuals
Who were these victims? How did they cross paths with a charming yet dangerous manipulator? And why did it take so long for justice to be served?
Join us as we piece together the lives behind the names, exploring the human cost of Selenski’s crimes and the deep scars left on a community still grappling with the horror uncovered in its own backyard.
