TRUE CRIME: The Murder of Ruthie Mae McCoy- the murder that inspired Candyman - a podcast by Angelisha

*I switch between saying Ruthie and Ruth, some articles/sources use Ruth, most use Ruthie

This is about the (in my opinion, avoidable) death of Ruthie Mae McCoy, an ABLA (Chicago) homes resident, if you have watched Candyman you will understand how this case inspired the movie.
