The Baraboo Bonebreaker | #421

LISTEN TO THE EPISODE HERE

The police knew their suspect was a sexual sadist – one who had trapped a young boy for days and took great pleasure in slowly, methodically, snapping every bone in his legs. What they didn’t expect was that this ghastly resident of Baraboo, Wisconsin was still just 17 years old. And it wasn’t his first time.

H&S spin the sinister tale of a twisted young psychopath, hiding in plain sight in an unassuming Midwestern town.
