Hello Twisted Listeners! Thanks as always for tuning in, and for sending in suggestions for cases and list topics. This week we're doing another list sent in by an amazing listener - murders of Chicago! These cases are all really horrible, but important to discuss as beyond the murders themselves, we dive into some of the history of Chicago and why these murders take place, why they do or don't get media coverage, and how they play into a larger narrative regarding class struggles and crime. We have more than one family annihilation/parricide story, way too many murders of children, and a connection to a very popular pop singer, whose life was forever changes for the worse right as she rose to stardom. So tune in and get mad and sad with us as we cover these horrific cases and give voices to their victims.

Cases Covered:
1. Patricia Columbo
2. William Balfour and the Donerson/Hudson/King Murders
