EP188: The Real Life Buffalo Bill

Remember in "Silence of the Lambs" when we are shown the character,
Buffalo Bill and his basement chamber of horrors? Many claim that
the character of Buffalo Bill was based on serial killer Gary
Heidnik. Listen to this week's episode and you can judge for
yourself. Gary Heidnik abducted six women and subjected them to
some of the most disgusting torture imaginable all for his own
pleasure.
