Son of Sam Files Unsealed revisits one of the most infamous crime sprees in New York City history—the case of David Berkowitz, the killer who became known as the “Son of Sam.” During the summer of 1976 and into 1977, a series of shootings spread fear across New York City and triggered an enormous police investigation. Cryptic letters sent to authorities and the press intensified the public panic and helped turn the unidentified gunman into a national obsession. This podcast goes beyond the headlines to examine the victims, crime scenes, investigation, letters, media frenzy, evidence, arrest of David Berkowitz, and the questions that continued long after his conviction. We’ll also explore disputed theories surrounding the case, including claims that Berkowitz may not have acted alone, while separating documented evidence from speculation.
