In this episode, we delve into the chilling case of Sean Vincent Gillis, a serial killer who operated in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, between 1994 and 2004. Unlike the more publicly known offenders of the region, Gillis lurked in the shadows, his crimes marked by a disturbing blend of calculated violence and obsessive documentation. We explore the psychological underpinnings of his behaviour, the investigative breakthroughs that led to his arrest, and the lives of the women whose stories deserve to be told with dignity and care. This episode is not just about Gillis, it’s about the resilience of a community, the complexity of evil, and the importance of remembering victims beyond the headlines.Content Warning This episode contains detailed discussion of violent crimes, including murder, mutilation, and postmortem abuse.
