WHAT: iHeartMedia, the No. 1 global podcast publisher, according to Podtrac, and KT Studios, a Los Angeles-based full-service documentary, scripted and podcast production company and leader in the true-crime space, today announced the release of “The Idaho Massacre,” part of its robust 140-plus-hour slate deal with iHeartPodcasts.
On November 13, 2022, four students from the University of Idaho were brutally stabbed to death in an off-campus house. After a lengthy investigation and cross-country manhunt, a Ph.D. student from a neighboring university was charged with the crimes. As it turns out, the 28-year-old was majoring in criminology, studying the behavior of killers, like the ones he would later be accused of becoming.
Did he use his skills to become a real-life Dexter Morgan? Were the Idaho victims his first, or was a serial killer hiding in the midst?
“The Idaho Massacre” is distributed by iHeartPodcasts.
WHEN: “The Idaho Massacre” premieres today August 9 with new episodes launching every Wednesday.
WHERE: Listen to “The Idaho Massacre” on the iHeartRadio app and everywhere podcasts are heard.
