    About this Episode

    How could a group of 3 young girls vanish with no clues as to where they went or what happened? It seems impossible. But it happened in Fort Worth, Texas - just two days before Christmas 1974.
    This is the mysterious story of the Fort Worth Trio.

    The Doodler Killer

    The Doodler Killer
    In the 1970s, there was a serial killer preying on San Francisco's gay community and almost 50 years later, he's never been caught. Because the victims were seen as minorities, the crimes didnt really make front page news. Police didnt really even seem to care.. Until they learned of a very weird pattern.
    This killer apparently sketched his victims on napkins before taking them to their violent deaths… and thus, the media dubbed him, the Doodler Killer.

    Teresa De Simone

    Teresa De Simone
    In December 1979, 22 year old Teresa De Simone was found strangled in the back seat of her car in Southampton, England.
    At the same time as the Yorkshire Ripper, people in the South wondered if they had their own monster in their midst.
    While police eventually got their guy, their actions would be subject to intense scrutiny while the world learned what was seemingly an open and shut case, was actually an almost unbelievable story.
