It was a perfect match to her, every time. Her DNA was sprayed across 40 crime scenes, 6 of which were murders, and yet investigators spent 16 years searching for her. Spending millions of dollars on investigations, thousands of overtime hours, and never so much as a glance on a CCTV camera. Was the Phantom of Heilbronn the perfect serial killer? Today, Dillan takes us to Germany for one hell of a mystery. .

Machine Gun Kelly might be a pop-punk and rapper in the 21st century, but during the 1930s, another man donned this pseudonym. During the 1930s, or ‘dirty-thirties,’ if I may, George Kelly Francis Barnes jr was the man behind the Machine Gun Kelly moniker. Today, he is remembered and referenced as a gangster and kidnapper, active during Prohibition and the beginnings of the Great Depression. Alongside names like Charles “Pretty Boy” Floyd, “Baby Face” Nelson, and Bonnie [Parker] and Clyde [Barrow], Machine Gun Kelly is remembered as one of the criminals making waves in the midwestern United States during the dirty thirties. 

Was Machine Gun Kelly really the original gangster, or has time twisted this tail into more than it ever was? This week, Dillan dives into an oldie, but a goodie.

What do you get when you have accusations of witches, but take them out of Salem? As far as the DePalma family is concerned, you’ve got a murder, or murderers.
