Episode 11 Christine Rothschild

In May 1968, the murder of University of Wisconsin – Madison first year student Christine Rothschild shocked the campus of 33,000 students. Studious and quiet Christine was unhappy at UW, and hoped to transfer – but two days before she was due to leave, she was murdered in a brutal and sadistic case of overkill. Her brazen killer waylaid her in broad daylight, and arranged her in a gruesome tableau that resulted in him being termed a psychopath. Christine’s case is unsolved – but we will discuss the prime suspect in the case, a man who reportedly was stalking the young student, and whose erratic and disturbing behavior was ignored by the university.
