About this episode

Thomas Whisenhant grew up in Alabama with a domineering mother and grandmother that, according to him, caused him to have a negative outlook towards women. He committed his first murder at the age of 16. Later in life, after marrying, he began to target women who worked in convenience stores around the Mobile, Alabama area.

Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss a lesser-known but extremely brutal Alabama serial killer. We've profiled a number of killers who grew up in households with domineering mothers. How much of this influenced the brutal crimes against women that Thomas Whisenhant later committed?
