Body Bags with Joseph Scott Morgan

James Vlassakis was part of a group of men who preyed on the physically and mentally weak in their community, gaining banking and welfare information that created a waterfall of money that kept coming even after the victims were dead. Joseph Scott Morgan and Dave Mack break down the case that became the subject of books, articles, and movies related to the deaths of at least 11 people, 8 of whom were found dismembered and dissolved in barrels filled with hydrochloric acid. James Vlassakis took part in the murders of at least 4 of the victims but turned rat for the state prosecution of the rest, negotiating a deal that allowed him to walk out of jail this month!

Four days after Christmas on December 29, 1977, skeletal remains and clothing were discovered near the Firestone Tire plant in Wilson, North Carolina. After state and local police found the remains, a medical examiner said they belonged “to a white female, approximately 16 to 23 years old, who had likely been there for six months to two years." That was as far as the case seemed to go before it went cold. The case might have been cold but was never forgotten. Joseph Scott Morgan and Dave Mack discuss the investigation and how "Wilson County Jane Doe" was finally identified as a 15-year-old girl from Monkton, Maryland, Cindy Marcell Blizzard.
