The History Guy Podcast: Mystery Murders: The Saxtown Axe Murders and the "Servant Girl Annihilator"

The History Guy podcast features two murder mysteries: historical crimes that were never solved. The first is the story of the Saxtown Axe murders, in which in 1874 a family of five German immigrants was attacked in the middle of the night. The second tale is about the killer the press dubbed the "Servant Girl Annihilator", who began brutally attacking servants in the growing city of Austin, Texas, in 1884. Only a few years later, similarly brutal crimes took place in London, leading Texas papers to wonder if the man in Austin had gone to London to become Jack the Ripper.
