In Part 2, Tracy talks about how Earle goes to Canada and continues murdering women. After two murders in Canada, many outfit changes, visits to several towns, an attempt to cross the border back into the US, and an actual town mob hunting him down, he is apprehended by authorities.

In Part 1, Tracy talks about the origins of Earle Nelson, his traumatic upbringing, both parents dying, his multiple traumatic brain injuries, and bouts of syphilis (which offered possible mercury and arsenic poisonings as treatment), his insatiable sexual appetite, and his overt religious fervor. Nelson had serval aliases and traveled all across the US to strangle women to death and sexually assault them post-mortem. There is a very long list of murders attributed to him and he worked in so quickly and randomly, he was very hard to pin down by authorities.For research, Tracy referenced two books: The Laughing Gorilla by Robert Graysmith and The Gorilla Man Strangler Case by Alvin EsauThe cocktail for this episode is The Dirty Wanderer. It's simple and classic. THE DIRTY WANDERER2 oz. gin1/2 dry vermouth5 shakes olive bitters Olives in vermouthAdd all ingredients to shaker or stirring glass with ice. Either shake or stir thoroughly.

Tracy talks about the disappearance and probable rape and murder of 14 year old Thora Chamberlain. Thomas Henry McMonigle is the primary suspect and all evidence points to his guilt. He tries his best to throw the FBI off his trail, but he's not very cunning and he isn't successful. This story is a total wild-goose chase that involves other people and uncovers more murders or possible murders. Tracy relied on the book The Murder of Thor’s Chamberlain by Rod Kackley. The cocktail for this episode is a classic; Mai Tai! It's tropical and delicious- we used the original Trader Vic's recipe.
