For more than twenty years, Joachim Kroll operated undetected across western Germany, murdering women and children while investigators struggled to connect the crimes. During that time, multiple innocent people were accused, several took their own lives under the weight of suspicion, and dozens of detectives unknowingly searched for the wrong man.In this episode, we examine the full story of Joachim Kroll, known as the Ruhr Cannibal. From his first known murder in 1955 to the shocking discovery that finally exposed him in 1976, we follow the investigation, the victims, the wrongful accusations, and the mistakes that allowed one of Germany's most notorious serial killers to evade capture for more than two decades.Our other podcast: "FEARFUL" - https://open.spotify.com/show/56ajNkLiPoIat1V2KI9n5c?si=OyM38rdsSSyyzKAFUJpSywMERCH:https://www.redbubble.com/people/wickedandgrim/shop?asc=uPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/wickedandgrim?fan_landing=trueYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@wickedlifeFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/wickedandgrim/ Instagram:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wickedandgrim/?hl=enTwitter: https://twitter.com/wickedandgrimWebsite: https://www.wickedandgrim.com/
