Chapter 51: Murder He Wrote-The Murder of Dariusz Janiszewski
For our one year anniversary, we're taking you to Poland to tell you about the murder of Dariusz Janiszewski whose body was found floating in the Ober River in December of 2000.

Amok, though, is a work of fiction, it's just a coincidence. Or is it?
