Ep 57: A Most Dangerous Game - Alexander Pichushkin - The Chess Board Killer

Today in True Crime we head to Russia for the story of Alexander Pichushkin - The Chess Board Killer. No, he didn't just kill Knights and Rooks - instead, he attacked the most vulnerable people in post-Soviet Union Russia and tried to fill his chess board by killing 64 people. Before he was finally caught he got pretty damn close.

We love Russian History so it tracks that we would also find a great Russian True Crime Tale.
