Smiley Face Killaz! Who is killing Jocks?

Explicit content warning

07/23/21 • 47 min

Since the 1990s a rash of mostly white, college-going males who were in very specific majors and involved in athletics were last seen leaving bars and later found floating in nearby rivers. Face up. With signs of lividity and other telltale signs that drowning was not the cause of death, and their bodies had not been in the water for the days to months during which they were missing. The causes of death were labeled accidental drownings...but that doesn't explain the ligature marks. Three retired detectives and a criminology professor have taken notice, and they think there is organized crime afoot. Are the Smiley Face Killers real? And if not, just who is killing all these jocks?
