Episode 368: What Really Happened to Walter Collins?

Inhuman: A True Crime Podcast

Walter B. Collins was a nine-year-old boy who disappeared on March 10, 1928, in Los Angeles, California. His disappearance received nationwide attention and led to a scandal involving the Los Angeles Police Department. Walter's mother, Christine Collins, gave him money to go to the cinema, but he never returned home. Five months later, a boy claiming to be Walter was found in Illinois, but Christine insisted that he was not her son. The case took a darker turn when it was later revealed that Walter had likely been murdered by a serial killer in Wineville, California. To this day, no one knows the truth of what really happened to Walter.
