Happy Tuesday, creeps and freaks! This week, Michelle is bringing us the story of the West Mesa Murders from Albuquerque, NM. This case was at the suggestion of our wonderful listener, Melissa!

But as we do in any unsolved case, we are hoping that this monster is caught and the victims and their families finally get some justice!
