Talk Is Jericho: Serial Killer Larry Hall – Blackbirds, Burnsides & Bloodshed

Talk Is Jericho: Serial Killer Larry Hall – Blackbirds, Burnsides & Bloodshed

Paul Walter Hauser won the Golden Globe for his portrayal of alleged serial killer Larry Hall in the AppleTV series, “Black Bird.” Larry is suspected of killing 50 girls in the Midwest between 1981-1994, yet was never convicted of murder! John and Jamie from True Crimecast return to break down the real-life case of Larry Hall, and offer more details about how Jimmy Keene was recruited by the FBI to help keep the alleged serial killer behind bars. They also discuss the numerous victims, explain why Larry’s confessions never amounted to a murder conviction, and what specifics Larry shared with Jimmy about Jessica Roach and Tricia Reitler’s murders that resulted in Larry’s continued imprisonment and Jimmy’s freedom. They also compare the TV series and characters to the real-life case and people, explain what was spot-on and what was added for dramatic effect, and how the project’s long development ultimately changed the casting for the better.
