The Hammer Man Strikes: Harvey Carignan's Brutal Legacy
Episode 176
Tuesday, 3 September, 2024
In this chilling episode, we delve into the horrific crimes of Harvey Louis Carignan, infamously known as "The Hammer Man," "The Hitcher," and "The Want Ad Killer." Born in Fargo, North Dakota, in 1927, Carignan's early life was marred by abuse, but it’s his gruesome actions in adulthood that cement his place in the annals of true crime. Though many times the background of a killer can be informative when trying to analyze and perhaps learn to better understand the motivation for their brutal crimes, we won’t dwell on his early years. Instead opting to skip ahead to his adulthood. Some people do foolish things amidst a midlife crisis, Carignan embarked on a spree of sadistic violence spanning multiple states over numerous years. Starting with the disappearance of 15-year-old Kathy Miller in 1973, we unravel a series of brutal attacks that terrorized the Pacific Northwest and beyond.We explore Carignan’s early crimes - the heinous acts, his evasion of justice, and the ultimate downfall that led to nearly five decades behind bars. Join us as we piece together the timeline of terror, revealing the twisted mind of a violent, and often times bizarrely unpredictable man.
