Listen now
Description
In 1971, 13-year old Charlie Brandt shot his pregnant mother to death before turning the gun on his father and sister.  In the years that followed, he seemed to move forward and live a normal life with college, marriage, and a career.  Charlie and his wife Teri were a close, fun-loving couple--the kind of couple others envy. Then, in 2004, a hidden life was revealed. Charlie was not who he appeared to be.  There was a darkness no one had seen. But there had been signs. Charlie loved to fish and he was known to his fellow fishermen as an expert with a knife.  But Charlie’s expertise went beyond the world of filleting fish.  After his death, Charlie would be investigated as a prolific serial killer, victimizing women along the Florida coast.  He had a sexual obsession with his niece that would end with her brutal murder. Join us at the quiet end for a fascinating story of a killer undercover: The Hidden Life of Charlie Brandt.
