Episode 304: Albert Fish Part 3

Morbid Network | Wondery
About this episode
Wel well well, you’ve made it to part three and are probably thinking, ok we’re almost done. We regret to inform you that you’re wrong. This just had to become 4 parts because THERE IS SO MUCH about this foul ghoulish man we just have to tell you or else Alaina would be kicking herself in the butt for years to come. Luckily, in this part we’re going to reach the point in time where Albert is apprehended by authorities, but somehow it only gets weirder. Are you holding on? To ya butts?

A couple great and fascinating sources used for this episode!
