Between 1934 and 1938, thirteen in the Cleveland, Ohio area fell victim to a killer with a taste for the macabre. Decapitating the victims, only three of the known thirteen have names. And of those, some of the heads were never found. Police were shocked and bewildered, and when the Mayor of Cleveland brought in a prominent law man to take over, the killer only got bolder. Eighty-eight years later, no one knows who committed these heinous murders. Or do they? This is the story of the Cleveland Torso Killer.
