Pure Evil – The Chilling Tale of International Serial Killer Israel Keys

from Talk Is Jericho · host Chris Jericho

Jamie from True Crimecast returns to break down one of the most calculated and terrifying killers in modern history – Israel Keyes. He didn’t have a victim type, he didn’t follow patterns, and he didn’t stay in one place. Instead, he buried “kill kits” across the country, flew city to city, and randomly selected victims while carefully studying law enforcement tactics to avoid capture. Jamie explains how Keyes operated for years without detection, the shocking methods he used to plan and execute his crimes, and how one single mistake in Anchorage involving victim Samantha Koenig ultimately led to his arrest. From cross-country murder trips and bank robberies used to fund his crimes, to the disturbing details that surfaced after his capture, this case is as methodical as it is horrifying. Plus, why this case remains so chilling, how many victims investigators believe there could be, and the unanswered questions Keyes took with him to the grave.
