Episode 2-MURDER (x’s 2): Tweed Creeper – RAF Colonel Russell Williams Kills 2 Women
Episode 2-MURDER (x’s 2): How long can a killer hide among the highest-ranking officers?
Can a killer hide among the highest-ranking officers? Listen to Military Murder’s first international case out of Canada. This case made headlines in 2010. A full-bird colonel for the Canadian Air Force who burglarized countless homes, wore his victims’ underwear, while taking pictures of himself. But once burglary no longer quenched his thirst, his actions turned deadly. But for the keen interrogation by the Canadian investigators, this man would have been able to escape under the radar because of his status and rank. Dig in with Margot as she discusses the case against Canadian Air Force Colonel Russell Williams, who killed two women, including one of his own military members.
