The Case

Show Notes

Kevin Wayne Maler, the man who was named a person of interest in the disappearance of Faith Roach by the sheriff of Oconee County, claims he's never been violent toward women, that he's a protector of women.

The women in his life tell a different story.

In Episode Six of The Case, Kirk Minihane speaks with several women that Maler had relationships with over the last four decades. The portrait that emerged was one of a horrifyingly violent man and a serial abuser. A man who preyed on underage girls and abandoned his children. And a man who is capable of deceiving everyone in his life about what he truly is.
