Searching for the Sons of Sam Dur: 36:02
On today’s show, we’re taking a break from our usual format to premiere a new
original Netflix podcast: “Searching for The Sons of Sam.”
From Tenderfoot TV and true crime director Joshua Zeman comes a 5-part audio
documentary about Zeman’s relationship with the late journalist Maury Terry.
Terry spent 40 years of his life trying to prove that convicted Son of Sam
serial killer David Berkowitz had not acted alone. Terry’s book, “The Ultimate
Evil,” lays out his case that the Son of Sam murders were carried out by
multiple members of a satanic cult.
After Terry’s death, Zeman inherited all of his case files. “Searching for The
Sons of Sam” is the companion podcast to Zeman’s Netflix docu-series, “The
Sons of Sam: A Descent into Darkness,” which retraces Maury Terry’s
investigation into who was really behind one of America’s most notorious
serial killings.
