It began in the summer of 1982 with the bodies of five young women being found in Washington States Green River. All of them had one thing in common, each worked as a prostitute on Seattle's SeaTac Strip. Over the ensuing months, more young women would go missing, many more. Police who had dealt with Ted Bundy only a few short years before hand, were quick to form a task force to track the faceless killer down. What none of them knew at the time however, was that this particular killer was unlike any they had seen before. A monster that lived among them, and was a part of the community, who existed solely to hunt and slay the young women that worked their streets and would later claim that the murder of women was his career.
This week we will be looking into the early murders and the formation of the task force that would eventually lead to the capture of Gary Leon Ridgway.
