About this episode
The Pandemonium team is back, and this week Cat, Rachel, and Meg turn their focus to one of New Mexico’s darkest mysteries - the West Mesa Murders. In 2009, a woman walking her dog stumbled across human bones on Albuquerque’s West Mesa.What followed was the shocking discovery of 11 women buried in the desert, all believed to be victims of a still-unidentified serial killer. Despite years of investigation, theories, and suspects, the case remains unsolved, leaving families without answers and a community haunted by the thought of a predator who may still be out there.From the victims’ stories to the hunt for the so-called “West Mesa Bone Collector,” we unravel the chilling mystery that still casts a long shadow over Albuquerque.((For this particular episode, Cat took their mugshots and created high school yearbook photos for each of the victims - as they should be remembered for who they were - not what they did for work.))Get your hydration station ready (and maybe don’t go walking alone in the desert), as we dive into this haunting case.Links We Used: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Mesa_murdershttps://www.cabq.gov/police/contact-the-police/west-mesa-homicide-investigationhttps://www.reddit.com/r/UnresolvedMysteries/comments/1jn75v7/the_west_mesa_bone_collector_the_tragic_case/https://www.koat.com/article/police-support-new-dna-bill-as-west-mesa-murder-cases-remain-cold/63644264https://www.aetv.com/real-crime/west-mesa-serial-killer-searchhttps://scholars.unh.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1079&context=spectrumhttps://www.kob.com/news/top-news/families-apd-seek-answers-16-years-after-west-mesa-murders/https://www.aetv.com/tags/west-mesa-murders
