Hans Schmidt: The Bloodlust Priest - Part 2
Part 2 of our Hans Schmidt series takes us back to the 1800s in Germany for a look at Hans's childhood and the relatives that came before him. Listen in as we unpack the "clews" from the newspapers and the trial transcripts that might just give us insight into why Hans committed the murder and dismemberment of Anna Aumuller in September of 1913.
This is the episode where we expose all of the dirty secrets that he was keeping when he arrived on America's shores in the summer of 1909!
WE WOULD RATE THIS EPISODE "M" FOR MATURE AUDIENCES ONLY.
