Summary
Wanted by the FBI and Interpol for a string of sexual assaults, Rhode Island native Nicholas Rossi didn’t just run away. He faked his death, fled to Scotland, disguised himself as a wheezing British academic called Arthur Knight, and made wilder and wilder TV appearances across international news. Before the story finally wrapped up earlier this year, Rossi’s winding tale had covered satanic ritual abuse, incel smear campaigns and, somehow, the September 11th attacks. It’s time to discover the dark, disorientating world (and 16 identities) of Nicholas Rossi. New episodes of RedHanded drop every Thursday, with our sister show ShortHand releasing on Tuesdays.
