Dead Zones: Serial Killer Eugene Victor Britt

In the summer of 1995, the city of Gary, Indiana, already hollowed by decades of industrial collapse, became the hunting ground of Eugene Victor Britt, a convicted rapist released on parole with no support, no housing, and no therapeutic engagement with the violence that had already defined his life. Between May and September, Britt killed at least seven people across Gary and the neighbouring suburb of Portage, exploiting the city's landscape of abandoned structures and unmonitored corridors to conceal both his crimes and himself. Six of his victims were poor Black women from Gary's east side. Their deaths were misclassified, their cases uninvestigated, their killer invisible. The seventh was an eight-year-old white girl in Portage looking for frogs a block from her home. Her death generated the meticulous forensic investigation that the summer had been demanding since June.
