Description
Alex Campbell is the kind of High School Sociology teacher that students actually listen to. Alex has been the sociology teacher at Elizabethton High School in Elizabethton, Tennessee for the past 18 years. And, in 2018, Alex Campbell got an idea for a lesson plan. He wanted his class to look into The Redhead Murders, a series of unsolved Jane Doe cases whose victims were young, redheaded sex workers. The killer, or killers had left the women on the side of busy highways in states like Tennessee, Arkansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
The kids took to the lesson plan like a fish to water, and made great headway with the aid of local and state police departments, and even the FBI. When they were finished, no one could have predicted that a small High School class in Elizabethton, Tennessee, could have solved a series of murders and brought justice to their families.
