July 1923 a string of gruesome murders began in the Ellwood City and West Pittsburg areas of western PA, near the Ohio-PA border. The suspect is believed to have dismembered and decapitated at least 15 people, leaving their bodies in a swamp-like area that runs from New Castle to Ellwood City. The area was referred to as Murder Swamp, these killings referred to as the Swamp Murders and they remain unsolved 100 years later.
