S2 Ep1: The Cleveland Torso Murders

<div>On a crisp fall morning in 1935, two young boys made a grisly discovery in Kingsbury Run, an area in southeast Cleveland, Ohio. The boys, ages 16 and 12, had been playing catch but lost control of the ball. To retrieve it, they ran down a hill affectionally called Jackass Hill, and were stopped in their tracks by the sight of a man’s headless body. When police arrived, they'd find another emasculated, decapitated corpse. Officials didn't know it yet, but the two bodies marked the first in the official tally of a serial killer to be dubbed the Cleveland Torso Murderer. <br> <br> "<a href="https://www.centuriespod.com/">Crimes of the Centuries</a>" is a podcast from the <a href="https://www.obsessednetwork.com/">Obsessed Network</a> exploring forgotten crimes from times past that made a mark and helped change history.<br> <br> Follow us on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/centuriespod/">Instagram</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/centuriespod">Twitter</a>: @centuriespod<br> <br> Episode Sponsors:</div> <ul> <li> <a href="https://helixsleep.com/pages/landing-page?promo=cotc">Helix</a> - Get up to $200 off all mattress orders AND two free pillows at <a href="http://www.HelixSleep.com/cotc">www.HelixSleep.com/cotc</a> </li> <li> <a href="https://cerebral.com/?utm_source=podcast&amp;utm_medium=audio&amp;utm_campaign=COTC">Cerebral</a> - Go to <a href="http://www.cerebral.com/COTC">www.cerebral.com/COTC</a> for 65% off your first month.</li> <li> <a href="https://www.hairstory.com/">Hairstory</a> - Use promo code "COTC" at <a href="http://www.hairstory.com">www.hairstory.com</a> to get 15% off your purchase.</li> <li> <a href="https://try.catperson.com/podcast-no-fine-print/?utm_medium=podcast&amp;utm_source=Crimes-of-the-Centuries&amp;utm_campaign=mdr%7Ccotc&amp;host=Crimes%20of%20the%20Centuries&amp;offerid=cotc">Cat Person</a> - Go to <a href="http://www.catperson.com/COTC">www.catperson.com/COTC</a> and use code COTC to save nearly 50% on your Starter Box with free shipping</li> </ul>
