Cameron Santana and I discuss what created a monster in Benjamin ("Tony") Atkins

I was back on the Santana True Crime show -- LIVE, aye-yi-yi -- last night, this time to discuss the case of Benjamin Atkins. The broadcast aired at 8:30 p.m. on Streamyard and the replay is now on YouTube for you to check out. In our discussion, we touch on Atkins' upbringing and his chain of crimes along Detroit's historic Woodward Avenue, leaving 11 women dead and at least two others assaulted who survived. What led up to Atkins being labeled, at his arrest, as the country's fastest-moving serial killer? What did it take for Detroit and Highland Park to realize they had a serial killer roaming the street? We tackle those questions and more. Tomorrow night (Thursday) at the same time, we will discuss the Armstrong case, so be sure to tune in live to catch that.
