THE STORY OF THE GREEN RIVER KILLER
Gary Ridgway, infamously known as the Green River Killer, terrorized the Pacific Northwest during the early 1980s. His haunting spree of violence primarily targeted young women, often overlooked by society—sex workers and runaways. Ridgway's methodical approach involved luring his victims, engaging in sexual acts, and then ruthlessly strangling them. Their bodies were callously discarded in wooded areas near the Green River, earning him his chilling moniker.
