The officers of the SS, Hitler's feared paramilitary unit, were the most notorious war criminals of WWII. Some were brought to justice after the war, but many were able to escape from Germany.

When it became a federal prison in 1934, only the most violent and difficult prisoners in the U.S. were sent there.

In one of the earliest documented serial murder cases, five prostitutes in the Whitechapel district of London were found brutally murdered with throats slashed and bodies mutilated.

MysteryQuest's team of experts heads to London to follow these leads and examine the evidence first hand.

Alcatraz is one of the most notorious federal penitentiaries in American history. Only the most violent and difficult prisoners in the U.S. were sent there.
