Ep. 238 - The Cincinnati Strangler

Cincinnati arrested and convicted Posteal Laskey Jr. for running over and stabbing to death a woman he picked up in a stolen cab. But was Laskey also responsible for the rape and choking deaths of six other women in 1966? Officials believe he was the "Cincinnati Strangler," though he was never convicted in those deaths. The story was made more complicated because Laskey was black, during a height of racial tensions in the country, and his conviction led to volatile unrest in the Queen City.www.ohiomysteries.comfeedback@ohiomysteries.comwww.patreon.com/ohiomysterieswww.twitter.com/mysteriesohiowww.facebook.com/ohiomysteriesAdditional music:New Horizon - Aderin; Audionautix- The Great Unknown; The Great Phospher- Daniel Birch Learn more about your ad choices.
