S11, Chapter 3: Murder Mac
Episode 3
Friday, 10 October, 2025
No credits this week because I didn't want to delay this episode any longer.For their plan to work, Larry Bittaker knew they couldn’t rely on just any car. They needed something bigger… something that could trap a victim inside. In February of 1979, with money from Norris, he bought it—a silver-gray 1977 GMC Vandura.The van was windowless on one side, with a sliding door large enough to swallow someone whole. Bittaker later admitted that when he first saw that door, he knew. They could pull up close to a girl, slide it open, and drag her inside without anyone noticing.The pair gave the vehicle a name. To them, it wasn’t just a van. It was their “Murder Mac.”—Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/c/tapesfromthedarkside—Sources:Partners in True Crimehttps://www.partnersintruecrime.com/Music:Augusta Treverorumhttps://linktr.ee/trvrrm
