The Story of Kingsbury Run
True Crime
20 Episodes
Between September 1935 and August 1938, at least twelve people were murdered and dismembered in Cleveland, Ohio. Most were beheaded. Most were never identified. The case fell to the city's newly appointed Safety Director — the same man who had, four years earlier, put Al Capone in federal prison. It was the case that destroyed his career. The killer was never charged. This is the story of the investigation, of the three victims who were named, of the doctor Eliot Ness became certain of, and of the interrogation Ness spent the rest of his life not being able to talk about.
