Between 1991 and 1998 in the D.C. area, ten women were sexually assaulted by a man dubbed the Potomac River Rapist. The last victim, Christine Mirzayan, was murdered. For years, these cases remained unsolved, leaving so many haunted, traumatized, and without answers.
In today’s episode, we will discuss each of the victims, the crime scenes, the evidence, and examine what the offender's behavior might reveal about him.
Then, we will discuss the eventual arrest of Giles Warrick and whether the evidence and behavior align with what is ultimately learned about him.
