We discuss the Times Square Killer, Richard Cottingham, and his brutal and sadistic murders of sex workers in the late 1970s. The transient nature of Times Square, coupled with its indulgence of kink and sex, made it a prime landscape for predators, addicts, and criminals. We outline his murders within the context of sexual sadism.
CW | TW: This episode discusses graphic details of sadistic crimes involving sexual assault, rape, torture, decapitation, and murder. NSFW. Listener discretion is advised.
