Over a span of years in the early '90s, Robert Sylvester Alston killed at least four women in Greensboro, North Carolina.


With the constant interest in serial killers Alston is seemingly unique in that his crimes have garnered very little attention from anyone out there in the world of true-crime coverage. What we do have, though, is the profile on him by Greensboro News and Record (https://greensboro.com/) journalist Nancy McLaughlin (https://greensboro.com/users/profile/...) who, two decades after he had been incarcerated, was granted the very first opportunity to interview Alston.


With our fourth episode in this series, we're following up on last week's conversation with Nancy McLaughlin about Larry Darby Jr., and focusing solely on the events around Nancy's interview with Alston.


If you're new to the show, go back to the first episode to get caught up before you dive in here.


What you're going to hear are readings of articles from the News and Record (https://greensboro.com/) alternating with excerpts of an interview with Nancy McLaughlin.
