About this episode

On a cold night in December of 1996, a night of hanging out and getting high turned into the darkest nightmare for Rita Kemper. A man named Joe Metheny, whom she had known for a few months, invited her over to his desolate trailer in South Baltimore. Rita trusted Joe but little did she know she would barely get out of his trailer alive, and that many other women had suffered a much worse fate than Rita having been murdered, dismembered, and scattered throughout Joe’s yard. This is the story of Baltimore’s Cannibal Serial Killer, Joe Metheny and you’re listening to Murder in America.
