S8 Ep306: Starkweather: The Untold Story of the Killing Spree That Changed America” w/author Harry MacLean

Once Upon a Crime

Dec 12 2023 • 47 mins

In 1958, 19-year-old Starkweather went on a killing spree that shocked the nation. He took his 14-year-old girlfriend, Caril, with him.

The story of that crime spree has become a legend in true crime history, and Starkweather and Fugate have been portrayed as villains on par with Bonnie and Clyde.

In this episode, I revisit this case by speaking with best-selling true crime author Harry MacLean.  His new book Starkweather: The Untold Story of the Killing Spree That Changed America takes a comprehensive look at this case and comes to some new conclusions about Caril Fugate’s guilt or innocence in the murders.
