In this episode we dive into the case of Michael Bruce Ross, a serial killer who terrorized the northeastern United States in the early 1980s. Dubbed "The Roadside Strangler," Ross was responsible for the rape and murder of at least eight young women between 1981 and 1984. His crimes spanned across Connecticut and New York, leaving a trail of devastation in their wake. The episode also explores the legal proceedings that led to his conviction and eventual execution in 2005, making him the last person to be executed in Connecticut before the state abolished the death penalty in 2012.
