In the early 1980s, a silent predator stalked the highways of the American South—leaving behind a string of young women with red hair, brown eyes, and broken stories. They vanished from rest stops, truck stops, and quiet roadsides, only to reappear as Jane Does discarded off interstates.

In this episode of Flat Circle, I unearth the twisted still officially unsolved case of the Redhead Murders, focusing the most prominent victims—Lisa Nichols and Tina Marie Farmer—and the disturbing patterns that link them. From psychological profiling and forensic roadmaps to online sleuth forums like Reddit and Websleuths, we dive deep into the eerie network of highways, predators, and silence.

Who was the killer? Was it just one man—or a hidden community of truckers exchanging horrors over CB radios?

Time loops. Patterns repeat. And the road always remembers.
