Serial Killer Grandparents: Ray and Faye...

Crime House
About this episode

After a lifetime of petty crimes, Ray Copeland turned to murder in the 1980s as part of a scheme to defraud cattle auctions. Although his wife Faye might not have participated in the violence herself, she seemed to be in on the scheme. But the Copelands weren't sophisticated killers -- and their sloppiness threatened to reveal their true nature as a pair of elderly serial killers. Mind of a Serial Killer is a Crime House Original.
