In this special episode, we give an update on The Detroit History Podcast and tell you what we've been working on lately. And as a special bonus: Managing Editor Eric Kiska interviews documentary filmmaker Andrew Templeton who is screening his new film "1969: Killers, Freaks, and Radicals," a movie that covers "The Michigan Murders" (aka The Co-Ed Killings) in the late 60s. Up to today, most have attributed the crimes to one lone serial killer named John Norman Collins, but Templeton (and interviewees) propose that others may have been involved after investigating the case.

Templeton brings us through what Michiganders were feeling like in the late 60s as the homicides unfolded, and how the crimes (along with everything else going on in the late 60s) created a feeling of mayhem in the region. We also discuss how the police made several mishaps that gave Collins time to destroy evidence, and how ignorance towards the serial killer psychological profile led to Collins (wrongly) being an unlikely suspect.
