In this episode of the Unsolved Couple Podcast, we dive into one of the darkest chapters ever featured on Unsolved Mysteries: the case that haunted the legendary Eliot Ness long after he took down Al Capone. In 1930s Cleveland, a serial killer stalked the forgotten corners of Kingsbury Run — dismembering victims, taunting investigators, and leaving even “The Untouchable” himself powerless. Despite surveillance, raids, and even burning an entire shantytown to the ground, the Torso Slayer was never brought to justice. But this episode doesn’t end there.
We also revisit the heartbreaking 1989 case of baby Ryan Stallings — a medical mystery that led to accusations of poisoning, a mother’s arrest, and a desperate struggle for the truth. Was it murder… or a rare genetic disorder? Join us as we unpack:
- Eliot Ness’s secretive, desperate final investigation
- The chilling Kingsbury Run body count — and the suspect Ness could never name
- The haunting postcards sent from a mental institution
- The Stallings family tragedy and the controversial poisoning diagnosis
- How a mother’s fight for justice became one of the most debated cases in Unsolved Mysteries history
If you grew up terrified (and obsessed) with the original series — buckle in. This one pulls you straight back into that world.
