About this episode

In the Summer of 2011, in a small town in Southern Ohio, a weird craigslist ad was posted. The ad was posted by a man named Jack who was looking for an older man, single, and willing to move onto his property for a few months to keep up with the maintenance of his land and animals. The ad even stated %E2%80%9CIt%E2%80%99ll feel like a vacation if you enjoy nature and country life.%E2%80%9D while also including you would get paid weekly for your services. This ad sounded like a dream come true, getting to enjoy the slow country life and tending to the farm while getting paid to do it. This ad would receive hundreds of replies from applicants interested in the position. But what these applicants didn't know was that the person on the other side of the screen, was a serial killer.
