115 Satanic Panic: Ricky Kasso, The Acid King

Crimes, Killers, Cults and Beer: A True Crime Podcast

Ricky Kasso, aka The Acid Kingwas a troubled teenager, who had a rough childhood, and got into drugs. Big time. This story takes place n Northport, on Long Island, NY in 1984. It was a case that fueled the Satanic Panic because he ran with a group of kids who used Satan as a way to scare people. Although Ricky in his drug riddled mind thought Satan was talking to him.

A friend of his stole some drugs from him, and he and another friend lured him into the woods, and brutally murdered him. The media, all too eager to capitalize on the Satanic Panic lumped heavy metal, and anyone who listened to it in with the blame for the case. In fact it was this case where the AC/DC meaning Anti Christ Devil’s Children originated from because Ricky was wearing an AC/DC shirt when her was arrested.

Itsa crazy story, and we’re joined by Todd on this one. So, check it out!
