My family members, me were happy that they got caught and BUSTED
You DEFINITELY missed Andrei Chikatilo!
Jeffrey Dahmer once worked for Oscar Mayer singing a jingle.
"My bologna has a first name, it's T-O-M-M-Y..." 😂
Bruce McArthur
Richard cottingham the torso killer was caught in the act while torturing 18yr Leslie Odell at a quality inn.
I can't imagine the shock that person must have felt when they are called to a scene and find their own child no one ever expects that to happen.
I know😳
I wouldn't blame them if they were a little overly forceful with the suspect.
That's what he gets for being a cop 🤣🤣🤣
Deal with it. It's life.
That happened in my town, a local cop was sent to a car accident and his son and another teen were dead in the back seat, the drunk driver survived. It was pretty horrible. He was a friend of my daughter's, RIP Matt Willet.
I think I have an obsession with documentaries about serial killers. Is that bad?
Nah I like watching shows about killers like Deadly Women it interests me. It doesn't make you bad just interested in something dark.
Honestly not at all. It’s actually pretty normal for some people to be into true crime and serial killers.
@@catherineterry1111 I liked Deadly Women too
@@brodaforlife ok thx
I also have an obsession with documentaries about serial killers
I give credit to the attentive bystanders that helped get these killers off the street.
I read a story on reddit where this woman went on a date in Utah where she went on an evening hike, and at one point they accidentally stepped on something and both got this overwhelming sensation of dread and fear, and both the redditor and her date nope out of the area. Turns out that they stepped on one of Ted Bundy's victims, and he was hiding just out of sight in some bushes. Apparently in an interview Bundy gives his recount of said mentioned story and he says that that was the closest he's ever gotten to getting caught.
Well she didn’t have to worry he doesn’t kill woman..
I think it was OP’s friend’s parents. Both of them got a really bad vibe while hiking and the guy stepped on “something soft”.
@@michaelsherman8349 who didn't? Ted bundy sure as hell did so i know your not talking about him, maybe you mean dahlmer?
@@michaelsherman8349 Can I ask you where you get your FACTS from ????? Because I think that channel needs shut down for lies he did kill women !! And to see you put that comment so confident LMAO BUT WRONG WAYYYYY WRONG 🤌🤣🤏🤏🤣🤣✊
@@michaelsherman8349 r/confidentlyincorrect
Bundys MO was killing women
I confess myself having a morbid fascination with serial killers.
It's interesting because you're trying to figure out why their minds work the way they do. Why can one person be abused as a kid and grow up to be an advocate for abuse victims whereas someone else can be abused in an almost identical fashion and grow up to be a serial killer? I definitely understand your fascination.
@@supertuber120oh absolutely. I completely agree with you
Same here.
Yeah uh same here (hits report button)
Serial killers are the opposite to the rest of society. Being fascinated by them is a natural response. Humans are curious about anything they can't make sense of.
You don’t need to watch horror movies to see monsters. The real ones are worse, and they are men amongst us.
People
Literally anybody not just men
They're still pretty rare. Have you ever encountered a serial killer? I sure haven't.
@@Springfeeeelwell I hope I dont
@@Springfeeeel you’d be dead if you did!
I hope to see:
Top 10 Killers who succumbed to street justice
These murderers managed to evade the long arm of the law, only to fall victim to another person, whether it be a rival or a vengeful victim's relative/friend.
I think that's what happened to the monster of the Andes Pedro Lopez he was released from prison after serving the maximum sentence but vigilante justice is common in central and south American countries and I'm sure the media and police would've let everyone know about his release especially considering he killed and raped young girls hes suspected of killing over 100 young girls between the ages of 10-15
Oooo this a good one!
That would make a cool list
Ramirez obviously #1
theres already other videos like that on yt, just look it up
The Yorkshire Ripper was found in his car with a Lady, by the Police doing a routine check behind a church in Sheffield England he had a hammer & other tools in the boot of his car which he had used viciously numerous time on his other victims
He should definitely be on this list too.
Those fucktard cops interviewed him EIGHT TIMES bc of his ties to the murders.
Pathetic
You forgot Bruce McArthur. Police already knew he was a killer but when waiting on a warrant they heard he picked up another potential victim! They showed up to his address and after detaining him, they found the victim tied up, blindfolded and gagged on his bed.
Yup. He was literally in the act of killing that guy.
@@peterhernandez7817 yeah it was very disturbing. I learned about it on the Netflix docuseries Catching Killers!
@@dmichael7144 I saw a doc on Oxygen network. He was a Santa Claus, why is a scary thought.
What I have been considering lately is the odds that a serial killer has at some time unknowingly killed another serial killer? It's had to happen at one point or another.
I wonder that also
I have never considered this. What an interesting possibility. The odds aren’t slim, I’d guess.
Would that make em a hero?
@@loremaster8475 no, just a curiosity.
@@loremaster8475 and why would you just assume it's hero worship or some crap like that? People are allowed to think outside the box about these psychos without thinking they are heroes or something.
Fun fact: Before Dahmer was arrested one of his other victims escaped, but the responding police officers didn't believe he was in any danger and gave him back to Dahmer :)
And the women who tried to save that poor boy, they tried.
All because they didn’t want to deal with “a gay”
@@demonangel918 unfortunately, very true. Many serial killers preyed on gay men, prostitutes, etc, those considered the 'lowest' class, because no one would care, or miss them, which worked mostly. Horrible.
Yep… Milwaukee police utterly failed Mr. Sinthasomphone. I forgot his first name but his story and unique surname have stuck with me ever since I did research on Dahmer for a psychology paper.
@@demonangel918 also the fact that the young boy was Native American and the two women were African American and the cop was white, I’m sure u can put two and two together
@@demonangel918 good
Amazing video Rebecca from watch mojo of serial killers getting caught in the act, fantastic job.
Went to school with Dahmer. We lived down the street. He was quiet and odd. You could see the darkness in his eyes.
Did he like dark meat of chicken
I heard his parents left him alone a lot . was that true?
@@bluejem1315 , especially his mom. She was never right mentally. His father tried to do the best for him but Jeff I think was alone a lot. His family moved and left him alone. What's really sad is our police department pulled him over right after he killed his first victim, Steven Hicks, and he had his dismembered body in black trash bags in the back seat. The officer let him go with a warning. If he was arrested then and there, a lot of lives had the potential to be saved. Happy Thursday 😊
I often wondered what that cop felt after his failure to actually stop this killer. He knows he was the one whom pulled him over and he should be haunted with his decision made in that moment.
@@leesashriber5097 wow, i have so many questions...
Aww, I love to hear Fred Dinenage on these videos - he's been a huge part of my life for pretty much the entirety of it, starting with scientific kids shows and now helping me fulfil my morbid fascination with murderers. ❤❤
Next time add New York serial killer Joel Rifkin. In 1993 police stopped him for not having a license plate, they searched his car & found his 17th & final victim dead in his trunk. The victim was a drug addict trying to make money to feed her & boyfriend's habit. Her boyfriend was a former singer for the 1980's Punk band Reagan Youth.
We need more like these,best the plants has,great work they do.
If only the guy unmasked the zodiac killer he would be on this list
So…this is like an episode of Criminal Minds? 😂
Glad they caught in the act they need to
Fax 💯
It’s scary, notice that most of these guys were truck workers
Gary Heidnik. The killer that was used as a partial basis for Buffalo Bill in The Silence of the Lambs. He kept women in a pit, and was apprehended with living victims in the pit in his basement. The fact that you have no idea who he is almost astoshing. He is never mentioned as a contributing factor to character development of Hannibal Lechter is laughable.
Damn, alot of truck drivers!
It honestly makes sense. They are never in the same place for a substantial period of time and they are alone a lot with nothing but there thoughts
You totally downplayed Black’s capture. The neighbor observed the kidnapping and called police. Meanwhile Black had left in his van. The neighbor was describing the kidnapping and van, and Black drove by again. The neighbor was all “that’s him!”
You forgot to mention Joel Rifkin. He was on the way to dispose his final victim Tiffany Bresciani when a state trooper pulled him over for driving without a license plate.
I was expecting to see him on this list.
Can you do top 10 Olivia Newton John Moments
Dahmer ‘there could be as many as half a dozen’ they had no idea.
this is why i think every trucker is a serial killer
I miss the other creepy music that was played in the top ten serial killer that were never caught
America isn’t the best at much but we’ve certainly got the serial killer category covered....
Robert black trying to kidnap the responding police officers kid done messed up. I would've messed him up good it were my kid.
Wow! Some of these acts are so brazen.
God I miss the old creepy soundtrack you used to use in videos like this
I love this countdown. It shows how excellent police work catches the killer. Excellence and luck caught these guys. Bravo. Kudos to brave citizens who helped catch them too. Joel rifvkin ny killer caught with body in car traffic chase,forgot him
The power went out while I was listening to this.
Sucks that killers get a glorified video and we don't even know who all the victims were
I wouldn’t blame them if they didn’t want to talk about the crime that has happened to them. Especially if they don’t want to be known as the victims of there almost killer, or because it may trigger some trauma for them
@@brodaforlife yea I completely understand privacy and not wanting to relive a tragedy I'm just saying there's so many more victims than killers its just terrible how killers get glorified
Glorified how
@@blazedup4208 almost no one glorifies killer
This is heartbreaking. I find it difficult to come to terms with the evil that exists in humans. I was raised thinking that everyone was basically good, and I am torn by the knowledge that this is simply not true.
There is pure evil out there.
That thumbnail sure looks a lot like Will Forte
Yeah Randy kraft does look a lot like him
If only someone had caught the Zodiac killer in the act he would have been unmasked many years ago.
There are some groups that claim that they finally solved the Identity of the famous killer. However that is up for interpretation
So if he was caught, we would know who he was ? Wow you are so clever
@@marcjameswhelan6231 he was a confirmed narcissist. If he did get caught, he would've said so
Whoever's reading this,I pray that whatever you're going through gets better and whatever you're struggling with or worrying about is going to be fine and that everyone has a fantastic day! amen
NO ONE CARES NOT EVEN YOU
Thank you bot I needed this
Seriously stop spamming the same thing
@@Reaperguy67 it has no friends it has no life, only to spam, wait till the next watch mojo vid, whatever it's about, it will spam the same 2 comments
Thank you same for you.
What an interesting video
Not shocked that Jeffrey dahmer is on the list
Seems like there's a disproportionately high amount of truckers
Matches the victims - hookers and hitchhikers.
I’m assuming Rodney Alcala wasn’t added due the fact that he escaped from the apartment he was caught attacking Tali in??
all these west coast people
What are they waiting for to execute these people? Serious question so don't come after me.
The convicted always drag out the appeals process so it can literally take decades before they are executed.
I've wondered that for years. Why spend our money feeding them for 20 years while they wait and give them many more years to live then they gave their victims. It makes no sense. Keeping the prisons over populated with vicious murderers, just do 10 a day and get it over with. Am I bitter? Yes. I am tired of bad people getting by easy.
Serial killer Shawn Grate was caught down the street from me after a victim was able to call police. Also my friends mom was murdered in Cleveland by serial killer Anthony Sewell.
Oh wow! What was the name of your friends mom? I felt bad for how those women's disappearances were totally ignored.
@@candiicaine5596 don't remember his mom's name but we called my friend D.D. He was in prison at the time he found out and they wouldn't let him out to attend services. Hard to grieve properly in prison 😥
A lot of long haul truckers huh?
Not staying in one place makes them harder to catch
Won't be able to sleep after this
I do remember about Jeffery Danner and he was a sicko sob
The guy in the thumbnail was just like Will forte from the show last Man on Earth lol
Anthony Sowell was caught when lady jumped out window and call and. Was caught with 12 victims
What about Joel Rifkin? He got caught transporting a corpse.
To follow some guy in handcuffs saying wild stuff UNTIL YOU WALKED INTO JEFFREY'S PLACE, had to sound like a weird sex life domestic issue than became violent. Boy did they get the worst surprise of their lives
We need Mind Hunter season 3!!
Has there ever been a criminal or serial killer that wanted to turn themselves in, out of guilt or something?
Edmund Kemper turned himself in, but it's incredibly rare.
Ed Kemper the Co Ed killer called the police on himself after murdering his mother and her friend
@@mytruecrimelibrary why isn't there a list of that though, of criminals or serial killers that turn themselves in?
@@estebangutierrez160It's really rare but there are a few besides Kemper. Mack Ray Edwards, Micheal Copeland, Wayne Adam Ford, Javed Iqbal and Angel Resendiz. But I can't think of any others.
William Heirens sort of.
the sheriff with the moustache in the intro looks like a live-action Principal Prickley from Recess
Those people are crazy!
People man…
Humans are the worst
Omg on the thumb nail,the scorecard killer,I thought it was the guy from morbid facts.
wasn't dennis nilsen kind of caught? his neighbors grew suspicious of him every time he strangled his victims in his own home
A policeman opened the door of ch!ld unaliver, Robert Black’s car after they got a call that he’d abducted a little girl. The policeman who opened the door was the girl’s father.
Fact is stranger then fiction. Sounds like something from a SVU episode.
you can't weasle your way out of it when you get caught in the act
Finally something serial killer related yup im totally not unhinged.
Why is will forte your thumbnail? Haha
Surprised not to see Bruce McArthur on the list
top favourite serial killers of all time
0:45 scary distance between eyes. The average is the width of anorher eye.
First time i've heard the name Randy Kraft or William Bonin
Top 10 of People that unbelievably Were Serial Killers ( Kids, Political Authorities or Any Kind of Authorities, Housewives, Business Management, GrandParents, Religious People Etc...)
67!! Victims:( unreal
Is it me, or does that thumbnail look like 'the late Bill Aucoin'?(It's probably just me...I watched 'KISS, Beyond the Makeup' this last weekend...)
Caught in the act of killing their next victim was part of the Criminal Minds formula. They always caught the unsub in the act.
“whoooops”
Law enforcement had knew about Dahmer years before he was finally arrested. At least one of his victims escaped and went to the police but was returned to him by the officer.💯
You knew this before the wack Netflix show or before? I didn't watch the Netflix one cuz it's the same boring story already played out
If every serial killer is the most evil killer in the world, then you are irrational.
0:44 idk reminds me of death note
Almost of their names are Robert lol
Dayton Leroy Rogers is TERRIFYING.
Thank - you . ( 2022 / Aug . 24 )
Fun fact…dahmer got murdered and cried like a bish when a fellow inmate killed him…street justice for yea! Lesson learned in this video? A lot of truckers are killers?
No he didn't make a sound
In the passenger side the police discovered a dying Marine …. Wtf. So much for picking that weak. 😳
Peter Sutcliffe should be on this list!
Except he wasnt caught committing a crime. Just parked with a woman. Not quite the same.
Wow. Alot of truck drivers on this list.
When gang members kills more then 3 ppl
What are they called if not serial killer
This video could also be called Long-haul truckers who need psychiatric help.”
Scorecard killer is one of the worst to ever walk the earth 🌎
😢😢
Anyone else see Derbez in the thumbnail?
moral of the story / dont break into peoples houses
I'd hate to get caught in the act...uhh...if I was a serial killer that is. Which I'm totally not.
Lmao , sure sure, who are you trying to convince us or yourself?? 😅🤣🤫
Always a trucker...always 3 names.
Anybody else think William Bonin looks a lot like Al Snow the pro wrestler, or is it just me?
So this isn't ranked in kill counts
Surratt, Boardman Ohio mugshot.
This video is REALLY bad PR for truckers. 🤨😑
what about ted bundy
In other news Hell is hot .SMH
What did you do, Will Forte?
He knows what he did.
I thot btk shud be on here. But then i thot he need to be caught in the act not bc he made a stupid decision to contact authorities
hi
Bye losers
