Murder for Rent: Al Kite
from True Crimecast · host Stove Leg Media
In May 2004, 53-year-old Al Kite was found brutally tortured and murdered in his Colorado home after meeting a potential tenant. The killer meticulously planned the murder, abandoning Al's truck and cleaning the scene with bleach. Investigators believe the motive was the "thrill" of the kill, with experts linking the unusual hog-tying and torture methods to practices like falaka. The case remains cold, but DNA evidence suggests they may be able to identify the true identity of the killer, "Robert Cooper." --For early, ad free episodes and monthly exclusive bonus content, join our Patreon!
