Gerard John Schaefer: The Serial Killer Cop.

Gerard John Schaefer wore a badge, carried a gun, and was sworn to protect the public. Behind that trusted uniform, however, lurked a sadistic predator who used his authority to intimidate, abduct, and terrorize young women. After two frightened hitchhikers escaped from Schaefer’s custody, investigators uncovered evidence connecting the Florida sheriff’s deputy to the murders of teenagers Susan Place and Georgia Jessup—and potentially a much larger trail of missing and murdered women. His disturbing writings, personal trophies, and carefully constructed fantasies revealed a man whose violence may have begun long before police finally caught him. How many victims did the man known as the Killer Cop leave behind? And how did someone so dangerous manage to hide behind a badge? Join us as we examine the crimes, conviction, and terrifying unanswered questions surrounding Gerard John Schaefer.
