Episode 35 - Kidnappings & Ransom Notes

HI! Miss us? We're back with Episode 35 where we delve into the meaty topic of ransom notes through the gateway drug of kidnappings. Danielle talks handwriting analysis and Melanie shares the first documented case of the use of a ransom-note in a kidnapping in the USA and another (really tragic) case from LA in the 30's.

Trigger warning: In the second half we talk about the kidnappings of children along with the details of the cases so that might be unsettling to some listeners. You are probably OK with Danielle's bit about graphanalysis but maybe not the cases. Up to you!
