Episode one of the third season of the Podcast on Crimes Against Women kicks off a multi-episode series delving into the criminology of offenders. The first episode in this series welcomes New York Times best-selling author, storyteller, performer, adoption advocate, and much more, Jillian Lauren.
On this episode, Jillian discusses how she became the only journalist to interview Samuel Little, the most prolific serial killer in American history, who confessed to murdering 93 people (most of whom were women). Jillian then examines the psyche of this man turned monster, shares the process of how she extracted confessions from Samuel, and describes what interactions with Samuel were like. Finally, Jillian opens up about being featured in the Starz network docuseries on the Samuel Little case, titled Confronting a Killer, and her book on the same subject, titled Behold the Monster.
