Episode Details

Join Benny “The Playa” Scala, Brittany “Boston Bad Girl” Brown, “Dangerous” Dave Brown and Phil “The President” Decesare as they travel in the True Crime Time Machine and look at another epic case in the annals of True Crime. Richard Francis Cottingham (born November 25, 1946) is an American serial killer who was convicted in New York State of six murders committed between 1972 and 1980 and convicted in New Jersey of twelve murders committed between 1967 and 1978. He was nicknamed by media as the Torso Killer and the Times Square Ripper, since some of the murders he was convicted of included mutilation. Cottingham's confirmed killings resulted in nine convictions and a further eight confessions under non-prosecution agreements, leading to him serving multiple life sentences in New Jersey prisons. In 2009, decades after his first five murder convictions, Cottingham told a journalist he had committed at least eighty "perfect murders" of women in various regions of the United States. #truecrime #timessquarekiller #timessquareripper #torsokiller
