We are back with Part II of CA Killers because one part is not enough...but, neither is two so we are giving you two more after this. This week we meet one of the most unsuspecting killers, a killer whose purse probably contains denture cream and maybe some hard candy. We are talking about a granny killer with a gnarly story and Celina gives us all the gruesome details. Hailey brings to the table another cult favorite and probably the most talked-about unsolved case in the history of California, is the story of the Zodiac Killer. Will it be Ted Cruz? Tune in to hear more.
Follow along every Wednesday as we travel around the "Murder Alphabet" of the United States.
