What Did Corazon Amurao Do After She Pointed at Richard Speck in Court?

from History's Hidden Killers · host Hidden Killers Podcast

She crossed the courtroom. She walked directly at Richard Speck. She stopped close enough to touch him. And she said: "This is the man." Then Corazon Amurao disappeared from public life for sixty years.On the night of July 13, 1966, Speck killed eight of her roommates in a Chicago townhouse. Corazon survived by hiding under a bed for six hours while he worked room by room. Her description of his "Born to Raise Hell" tattoo identified him within days. Her testimony convicted him.But the real story isn't the trial. It's what she did afterward — or rather, what she refused to do. She went home to the Philippines. She turned down every book, every interview, every film deal. She chose silence over spectacle and carried eight names quietly for the rest of her life. Surviving Serial Killers on History's Hidden Killers tells the story the world almost never heard.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
