The Monster of Florence
True Crime
1 Episodes
Between 1968 and 1985, sixteen people were murdered in eight double homicides in the hills around Florence, and Italian authorities never conclusively identified the killer. The series follows the case as the investigators lived it: a 1968 shooting in Signa written off as a jealous husband's crime, a six-year silence, and then the slow, forensic realization that the same .22 caliber Beretta — firing pre-1968 Winchester Series H rounds through a defective firing pin — kept returning to the same unlit rural roads. Suspects are arrested and cleared while the killings continue, victims are found in parked cars along dirt lanes, and each new scene adds another piece to a puzzle that points to a phantom nobody can name. Narrated in cold, documented detail, the show stays with what the record actually holds — casings, autopsy reports, dispatch logs, and the geography of the Tuscan countryside.
