Tom B - Dean Corll, the Candyman killer

June 7

Tom B was looking into serial killers when he came across the little known case of Texas lineman Dean Corll - known as the Candyman.

In doing so he has uncovered a massive ring of paedophiles, and a conspiracy which seemed to indicate these people were working together.

It's a horrifying tale of the seedy underbelly of suburbia, namely Houston Heights in Texas, where troubled kids or those who would not be missed were regularly the target of Corll and his co-conspirators.

Tom tells Ed Opperman about the rabbit hole he went down looking into Corll and his associations, and the cold, business like way these children were traded and eventually killed.

At the time of his arrest, Corll was responsible for at least 28 murders, but it is generally agreed his real total was much, much higher.
