This week, Lauren and Lacey wrap up “Serial Killer September” with a look at two of South Carolina’s most infamous killers, Todd Kohlhepp and Donald “Pee Wee” Gaskins.

From Kohlhepp’s shocking crimes in the Upstate, including the Superbike murders and his disturbing use of a shipping container, to Gaskins’ decades-long spree that earned him the title “the meanest man in America.” Along the way, the hosts explore how gaps in licensing and background checks allowed Kohlhepp to blend into everyday life as a realtor, and how Gaskins’ brutal history defied any single pattern. They also discuss broader issues, like how laws spill across areas of criminal, family, and even estate law, and how public policy struggles to balance safety, rights, and justice.
