The Hunt for the Chicago Strangler is a new three-part docuseries of discovery+ produced by Entertainment One that showcases a City in Crisis and seeks justice for at least 51 murdered women.
Over the past 20 years, authorities have discovered the bodies of dozens of women in the Chicago area, all of which were strangled and tossed in dumpsters or left in alleyways, with only one of these murders ever being solved. The young and older victims range from 18 to 58 years old and a majority of the women killed are Black, some were involved in sex work, and others experienced addiction. The all-new true-crime series The Hunt for the Chicago Strangler chronicles the search for the culprit as investigators aim to identify patterns to prevent more of these awful crimes from occurring.
To this day all but one of the cases remain unsolved, leading many to believe there is a serial killer — or killers — targeting women in Chicago. The series compiles interviews with families, activists, experts, police and survivors to remember the women whose lives were taken and explores the close-knit communities that have been victimized by fear and loss, showcasing the devastating emotional toll that these unsolved crimes have taken as they continue to demand answers.
Narrated by award-winning actor and Chicago native, Tonya Pinkins (Red Pill) the immersive three-part docuseries, with systemic racism as the backdrop, sheds light on these murders in the context of decades-long marginalization of Black women and neglect in Chicago’s South and West Side communities.
How could more than 51 women be strangled with seeming impunity over twenty years, yet their killer or killers are still at large to this day? As The Hunt For The Chicago Strangler drives towards those answers, shocking new evidence has the potential to break the case open.
The Hunt For the Chicago Strangler also highlights the work of The Murder Accountability Project, a non-profit that tracks thousands of unsolved murders in the U.S., using an algorithm to detect patterns and clusters of serial murders. Their findings are turned over to law enforcement to help identify and profile unknown assailants.
