The Boneyard Monsters: Leonard Lake and Charles Ng

In the mid-1980s, Northern California became the hunting ground of two men whose crimes would horrify the nation. Leonard Lake and Charles Ng formed a deadly partnership that led to one of the most disturbing series of murders in U.S. history.

The pair lured victims to a remote property in Calaveras County, where their carefully hidden compound revealed the full extent of their crimes. What investigators uncovered would shock even the most experienced officers... a grim trail of victims, disturbing videotapes, and evidence of cold, calculated brutality.

In this episode, we explore the backgrounds of Leonard Lake and Charles Ng, how their paths crossed, and how their twisted fantasies escalated into real-life atrocities. We also look at the investigation that eventually exposed their crimes and brought one of America’s darkest criminal partnerships to an end.

This case raises chilling questions about complicity, manipulation, and how two individuals together can commit horrors far beyond what either might have done alone.
