36. Serial Killer in the Everglades (Everglades National Park, Florida)

The original “Florida Man” was likely a prolific serial killer. Edgar Watson killed multiple people and even a famous female outlaw. He was active from the late 1800s until 1910 and left a trail of bodies from Oklahoma to the Everglades. He used the swamps of Florida to cover up his murders and largely got away with it. Sources:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Everglades_National_Parkhttps://flsheriffs.org/blog/entry/edgar-j-watson-serial-killer-or-florida-myth/https://www.floridatrend.com/article/18034/the-town-that-killed-an-outlaw/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chokoloskee,_Florida#Edgar_Watsonhttps://www.nps.gov/places/the-watson-place.htmSupport the showJoin our Patreon for bonus content!
