NEW: Confessions of the Green River Killer

Author Maria DiLorenzo joins "Mind Over Murder" co-hosts Bill Thomas and Kristin Dilley to discuss her new book, "Confessions of the Green River Killer: A True Story of Manipulation, Madness and a Search for Justice." The book is drawn from two years of interviews with notorious serial killer Gary Ridgeway, who was convicted of killing 49 victims. His actual body count could be between 80 and 90, making him one of the most prolific serial killer in U.S. history.   Confessions of the Green River Killer: A True Story of Manipulation, Madness, and a Search for Justice https://www.amazon.com/Confessions-Green-River-Killer-Manipulation/dp/B0F88XCVZ6/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0 Beyond the Crime: From the Perspective of Those Who Kill https://www.beyondthecrime.com/ Daily Press:  FBI links 1988 Colonial Parkway double-murder case to serial killer, but families say evidence falls short https://www.dailypress.com/2026/09/18/colonial-parkway-killings/ WAVY:  Disappearances of 2 more Colonial Parkway victims linked to Alan Wade Wilmer Sr. https://www.wavy.com/news/local-news/two-1988-newport-news-murders-linked-to-deceased-man/ WTKR: FBI officially links disappearances of 2 more Colonial Parkway victims to Alan Wade Wilmer Sr. https://www.wtkr.com/news/crime/live-families-of-colonial-parkway-murder-victims-share-updates WVEC: Colonial Parkway killer linked to two more murders https://www.13newsnow.com/article/news/crime/true-crime/fbi-closes-colonial-parkway-case-involving-keith-call-and-cassandra-hailey-families-remain-frustrated/291-742b6d6a-c792-43b8-9238-51a3c92492a4 NBC: FBI Norfolk field office links deceased suspect to additional Colonial Parkway MurdersIn January 2026, the FBI announced Alan Wade Wilmer Sr. is responsible for the 1986 Virginia murders of Cathleen Thomas and Rebecca Dowski. https://www.nbcnews.com/dateline/cold-case-spotlight/colonial-parkway-murders-cathleen-thomas-rebecca-dowski-resolved-rcna255097 American Detective TV series: Colonial Parkway Murders: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fp3rNRZnL0E Washingtonian: A Murder on the Rappahannock River: https://www.washingtonian.com/2019/06/27/murder-on-the-rappahannock-river-emerson-stevens-mary-harding-innocence-project/ Won't you help the Mind Over Murder podcast increase our visibility and shine the spotlight on the "Colonial Parkway Murders" and other unsolved cases?
