Carlton Gary: The Stocking Strangler

This  story with a CRAZY twist was a suggestion from our listener, Matthew. 

During an eight month period of time from September of 1977 to April of 1978, residents of Columbus, Georgia lived in fear as seven women were raped & strangled; often with their own stockings. These women were mothers & grandmothers, fellow church  members, neighbors & dear friends. They were all elderly white females who lived alone. Allison tells us the rest in this week's episode.
