On this episode of Common Mystics, Jen and Jill dive into a series of brutal crimes that terrorized East Tennessee over a century ago.* It began in 1919, when two women, sleeping peacefully in the dead of night, were brutally attacked in a Knoxville home. Within hours, police arrested a suspect: Maurice Mays, a biracial man with ties to the Mayor. But even after Mays was behind bars, the nightmare wasn’t over. The break-ins continued. Women were attacked in their beds. Husbands gunned down. The people of Eastern Tennessee dubbed the assailant "the Night Marauder."
Who was behind these chilling crimes? And who ultimately paid the price? Tune in as the sisters uncover the true story of the Night Marauder, a century-old mystery that still haunts Tennessee history.
