S8 Ep295: School’s Out…Forever: The Murder of Colleen Ritzer
In this month’s series, I detail crimes that happened on school campuses. In this episode,
A 14-year-old high school student commits a horrific act of rape and murder in a school bathroom. Was Philip Chism mentally ill, as his defense would later claim, or was he faking it to get away with murder?
