You're listening to episode 38 of Jimmy Akin's Mysterious World,

where we look at mysteries from the twin perspectives of faith and reason.

In this episode, we're talking about how we caught the golden state killer.

I'm Dom Bettenelli and joining me today is Jimmy Akin.

Hi Jimmy. Howdy Dom. And that we are sort of the royal we.

Yeah, we are society, the authorities. Yeah, exactly.

So what are we talking about? Who's the golden state killer?

So one year ago, this week, authorities announced that they had arrested a man

for the crimes of the golden state killer this week, obviously, as we released the podcast.

If convicted, and he's not yet been tried and convicted, but if convicted,

this would bring closure to one of the longest unsolved series of crimes in California history.

What's more, it seems that we've caught the golden state killer using an entirely new method,

which is very interesting. It's never been done before, but it's already being used to solve

other cases, making it harder for perpetrators to get away with their crimes,

then easier to bring justice for the victims.

And that's why we're going to be talking about how we caught the golden state killer on this

episode of Jimmy Akin's mysterious world. So Jimmy, before we begin, we should probably

allay some fears and provide some disclaimers about our subject matter.

Right. So the first disclaimer is we're not going to be getting graphic here.
