Introducing RedHanded: Mexico's Notorious 'Little Old Lady Killer’
Today, we are sharing an episode from the award-winning true crime podcast RedHanded, hosted by Suruthi Bala and Hannah Maguire. RedHanded is the UK's #1 True Crime podcast, covering everything from high-profile murders and cults to con artists and cultural catastrophes, always asking not just what happened, but why.In this episode, Suruthi and Hannah investigate the hunt for Mexico City's "Mataviejitas," or Little Old Lady Killer, who terrorized the city's elderly women in the early 2000s and sparked Mexico's first ever serial killer manhunt. The case was plagued by media hysteria, investigative missteps, and one enormous misunderstanding, because the culprit turned out to be Juana Barraza, a middle-aged woman with a sinister lucha libre alter-ego called "The Lady of Silence," the very last person authorities were expecting to unmask.
