The Railroad Killer: Ángel Maturino Reséndiz
In the late 1990s, a man stepped off freight trains in the middle of the night and disappeared into the dark. By morning, people who lived near the tracks were dead. He became known as the Railroad Killer.
Host Alexander’s Lawson examines the crimes of Ángel Maturino Reséndiz, the Mexican drifter who hopped America’s rails, killed across multiple states, and briefly made the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted list. From the attack that left one survivor to the manhunt, surrender, and his 2006 execution in Texas, this episode traces how he used the railroad network as both escape route and hunting ground.
