S2 Ep.4: Serial Arsonist, Serial Killer? (with Fire Investigator and Author Ron Ryan)

Killer Questions with Daryn Carp

After a childhood marred by trauma, a woman goes on a decades-long fire-setting spree resulting in several deaths. Did Shirley Winters mean to kill, or was this arson gone out of control? Why was she able to remain free for so long while tragedy followed in her wake? Is this a case of inherited trauma manifesting, or intentional murder, or both?

Host Daryn Carp digs into her perplexing questions surrounding this case and is joined by fire investigator Ron Ryan, who also wrote a novel based on the life and crimes of Shirley Winters.
