About this listen

For over two decades, a shadow loomed over West Germany, Joachim Kroll, from 1955 to 1976, children and young women vanished without a trace, leaving a trail of terror that spanned cities, but the monster wasn’t hiding in the woods—he was living in a cramped apartment in Duisburg, working as a restroom attendant and living a life of quiet, dull routine. Children in Duisburg loved visiting Joachim as he often gave them candy and toys. He was known by neighbors to be a polite, pleasant guy to everyone, although a bit odd. How could a man dismissed by society as "dim-witted" manage to outsmart the police for 21 years until the gruesome discovery involving a neighbor's plumbing?
