S4E3: Ruthie May McCoy--The Bathroom Mirror Murder
Episode 91
Wednesday, 22 January, 2025

Ruthie Mae McCoy is beginning to thrive with the support of mental health and social services. She aims to work her way out of Chicago’s Abbott Housing Projects. But her life is cut short when someone breaks in through her bathroom mirror. Mick and Tommy discuss Ruthie Mae’s murder, and how it became the inspiration (or not) for one of the greatest horror movies of all time. But more importantly, we try to understand how this happened and the people involved.
