Season One of Atrocity Podcast kicks off with one of America’s most atrocious crime stories!
Today we begin our examination of Paul Bernardo (The Scarborough Rapist) and Karla Homolka.
Together, this couple would commit a series of horrific murders in service of Paul’s twisted sexual desires.

Next week, we will finish the tale, and talk about the trial and aftermath.

These two photos show just how normal this couple from hell looked. But as we all know, looks can be deceiving…

Paul’s police sketch, which led police to take his DNA sample. That DNA would sit on a shelf for 2 years while he continued his spree.

The three girls who lost their lives due to police incompetence and the deceit of Paul and Karla.
