SERIAL KILLER: The Butcher Baker (Part 2 of 3) | Anchorage, AK 1970s

from Obscura: A True Crime Podcast · host Justin Drown

The streets of Anchorage witnessed a hunter among the shadows—lives vanished beneath neon promises. Young women, drawn by the allure of a thriving pipeline economy, disappeared under uncertain circumstances—pawns within Robert Hansen's harrowing pursuit. Throughout the 1970s, Hansen left fragmented tales of survival and loss amid Anchorage’s dazzling promises and hidden perils. Surviving victims narrated chilling accounts of escaped encounters, challenging detectives to unravel the sinister truths of vanished lives. The quest for justice laid bare the unyielding drive of those who demanded answers in a web of chaos and desperation. Features victim interviews and police recordings. Premium subscribers only.
