S19 Ep94: Beyond The Headlines: True Crime's Myths and Legends w/Jeff Ignatowski

True Crime Tuesday presents: Beyond The Headlines: True Crime's Myths and Legends with Inventor/Researcher/Author, Jeff Ignatowski!

Ever wonder about the truth behind the sensationalized headlines when it comes to history's most infamous killers?  So did author Jeff Ignatowski, a nationally known speaker on the psychology of serial killers, who turned that curiosity into his meticulously researched book BEYOND THE HEADLINES:  True Crime's Myths and Legends. More than a collection of dramatically told true crime stories, Ignatowski's anthology challenges and explores the integrity of widespread myths surrounding infamous personalities such as Jack The Ripper, Dennis Rader, Elizabeth Bathory, Ed Gein, and Ted Bundy. It provides a deeper understanding of their stories through historical insight, criminological analysis, and a careful separation of fact from fiction.

On Today's Show, Jeff joins TCT to talk about his own brush with some famous criminals, and to dispel some of the more popular myths behind Elizabeth Bathory, Ed Gein, John Wayne Gacy, Jack The Ripper and H.H. Holmes.  We also talk about Jeff Mudgett's quest to prove HH Holmes was the Ripper, and why it might have been futile from the start....
