“I'll tell you everything you want to know. I'll give it blow by blow if you want. I have lots more blow-by-blow A monster moved to Anchorage in 2007. Israel Keyes didn't look evil; he appeared normal. To those who crossed his path, he seemed like a dedicated businessman, a doting father, and a loving boyfriend. No one could see the darkness lurking inside him, but by the time he moved to Alaska, Israel Keyes was already a thief, an arsonist, a rapist, and a serial killer. He did not give up these hobbies when he arrived in Anchorage. Sources: Callahan, Maureen. American Predator: The Hunt for the Most Meticulous Serial Killer of the 21st Century. 2019.

Join me in learning a few tidbits about how one of the most evil humans the planet ever housed, Israel Keyes, came to be. As I mentioned *just a couple times* Maureen Callahan's book, American Predator: The Hunt for the Most Meticulous Serial Killer of the 21st Century was an incredible aid in the making of this episode. ---Note, I forgot it is the year 2022 and incorrectly stated Daniel Lee was executed last year. He was executed in July 2020.
Samantha Koenig was an 18 year old Anchorage, Alaska high school student working as a barista at the Common Grounds coffee shack. During her shift on 2/1/2012, she had no way of knowing the last drink she served for the day would begin the unfolding of terrifying events. As mentioned in the episode, an INCREDIBLE source of information is Maureen Callahan's book American Predator: The Hunt for the Most Meticulous Serial Killer of the 21st Century ***CORRECTION: during the episode, I mentioned the ice thickness at Matanuska Lake was about 2-3 feet then realized I was saying feet like an idiot. I had to go back and turns out, the ice Keyes was trying to cut through was about 20 inches thick. Can you tell I live in the Midwest? 2-3 inches thick would be crazy to me.

The ability for people to so easily switch from, say, devoted family man to serial killer is the crux of America’s continued fascination with true crime. That’s the subject of “American Predator: The Hunt for the Most Meticulous Serial Killer of the 21st Century.” Author and investigative journalist Maureen Callahan joins guest host Courtney Collins to talk about the subject of the book, a man named Israel Keyes, who meticulously plotted and murdered victims undetected for 14 years.
“I’ll tell you everything you want to know. I’ll give it blow by blow if you want. I have lots more stories to tell.” Israel Keyes A monster moved to Anchorage in 2007. Israel Keyes didn’t look evil; he appeared normal. To those who crossed his path, he seemed like a dedicated businessman, a doting father, and a loving boyfriend. No one could see the darkness lurking inside him, but by the time he moved to Alaska, Israel Keyes was already a thief, an arsonist, a rapist, and a serial killer. He did not give up these hobbies when he arrived in Anchorage. Israel Keyes had been planning to burglarize the Common Grounds stand for several days, and on the snowy night of February 1st, he pulled a ski mask over his face, parked his car down the road, and walked to the stand. He hadn’t decided what he would do when he reached the stand. He planned to rob the shop, and if conditions were right, he would kidnap the barista. Keyes arrived at the stand at 7:55 and calmly ordered a large Americano. Eighteen-year-old Samantha Koenig prepared the drink, but when she turned around to hand it to him, she gasped at the .22 Taurus handgun Keyes pointed at her. He told her to turn out the lights and then hoisted himself through the window and inside the coffee stand. Samantha apparently was so terrified by the intruder and his gun, she forgot to push the panic button.

Ted Bundy. John Wayne Gacy. Jeffrey Dahmer. The names of notorious serial killers are usually well-known; they echo in the news and in public consciousness. But most people have never heard of Israel Keyes, one of the most ambitious and terrifying serial killers in modern history. The FBI considered his behavior unprecedented. Described by a prosecutor as "a force of pure evil," Keyes was a predator who struck all over the United States. He buried "kill kits"--cash, weapons, and body-disposal tools--in remote locations across the country. Over the course of fourteen years, Keyes would fly to a city, rent a car, and drive thousands of miles in order to use his kits. He would break into a stranger's house, abduct his victims in broad daylight, and kill and dispose of them in mere hours. And then he would return home to Alaska, resuming life as a quiet, reliable construction worker devoted to his only daughter.When journalist Maureen Callahan first heard about Israel Keyes in 2012, she was captivated by how a killer of this magnitude could go undetected by law enforcement for over a decade. And so began a project that consumed her for the next several years--uncovering the true story behind how the FBI ultimately caught Israel Keyes, and trying to understand what it means for a killer like Keyes to exist. A killer who left a path of monstrous, randomly committed crimes in his wake--many of which remain unsolved to this day.American Predator is the ambitious culmination of years of interviews with key figures in law enforcement and in Keyes's life, and research uncovered from classified FBI files. Callahan takes us on a journey into the chilling, nightmarish mind of a relentless killer, and to the limitations of traditional law enforcement.
