‘THE HAND IN THE WINDOW’ PODCAST ON OHIO SERIAL KILLER, HOSTED BY JOHN QUIÑONES, PREMIERES TUESDAY, NOV. 4

An all-new true crime podcast limited series unravels the case of a kidnapped woman in Ohio that leads investigators down a harrowing path to a serial killer. ABC News correspondent John Quiñones hosts the gripping series from ABC Audio and “20/20.” “The Hand in the Window” premieres on Tuesday, Nov. 4.

“The Hand in the Window” brings listeners back to rural Ashland, Ohio, in September 2016, after a shocking 911 call led to a desperate effort to find a kidnapped woman. After her rescue, investigators, including veteran sex crimes detective Kim Mager, zero in on her kidnapper, Shawn Grate. Throughout the 33 hours of interrogation, Detective Mager uncovered chilling truths, resulting in Grate’s terrifying confession to not only the kidnapping but also five murders across Ohio. The podcast shares exclusive, extended audio from the original 911 call, and provides never-before-heard audio from Detective Mager’s tactical interrogation of Grate, allowing viewers to dive deeper into this terrifying case.

The trailer is available now on Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, Spotify and other major podcast platforms.
