On a hot July night in 1966, terror descended upon a quiet Chicago townhouse. Eight young student nurses were brutally murdered—one by one—at the hands of a cold-blooded killer. By morning, only one survivor remained to tell the harrowing tale.
This is the case of Richard Speck, a drifter with a violent past who committed one of the most shocking mass murders in American history. How did he gain access to the nurses’ dormitory? What psychological demons drove him to kill? And how did the lone survivor help bring him to justice?
Join us as we unravel the chilling details of the crime that gripped a nation and changed history forever.
