I don't know if it's normal, but every night before sleeping I listen to crime stories. Even if I wake up at midnight I play another story. N your channel is my fav
True crime stories and mysteries are very soothing.
No me too hun.i can't sleep without a crime show lol.x
I've questioned my own intrigue of the true crime genres and believe that it is usually compassionate people who follow these stories, as they give us the opportunity to learn about the victims and their backstorie's. In addition to learning about the investigations and forensics, we get a glimpse into the psychopathy of those who commit these cruel, cold-blooded and heinous acts. And, in the end, we (usually) get closure with the knowledge of the capture, conviction and sentencing of the murderer/s.
@@funnyvidsandalilsinging7713 same here.
@@jesusisoursavior6234 There are also those who see it as popcorn entertainment. I've questioned my own intrigue as well. They leave me feeling virtuous without doing anything.
The cop that noticed the truck go past, and went to question the suspected serial killer known to have a gun.. far out that guy had balls of steel. Questioning the killer without backup… finding all that mortifying evidence.. and knowing the psycho could turn on you any moment. Amazing courage. That’s real police work there.
Leigh Jacobs. Yes absolutely. His name is Pat Postiglione, he`s a rather famous cop for his fotographic memory, he`s solved many crimes. He is very extraordinary.
Its called doing his job.
Go sit down
@@verbalannihilator6641 who pissed in your cherrios today
@@verbalannihilator6641 lol when you give yourself a username like that, but post comments like a 12 year old.
@@verbalannihilator6641 well most dont do their job lol
He was around 60 when he killed all these women. You don't get to 60 then all of a sudden become a serial killer. This guy may have been doing it for 30 or 40 years. Maybe even a different M.O when he was younger and stronger so able to finish them off with his bare hands rather than a gun.
Exactly. I totally agree. Most serial killers do not start at that late age. Per usual he was probably killing animals as a youngster & graduated to humans as an adult.
Yeah they should go back and look at cases around where this guy lived and worked when he was younger.
Absolutely. And his daughter saying that be didn’t think about pröstitütes: She clearly didn’t know what was in her father’s head or heart, so why should we believe she’d know what he thought about them? Delusional!
He had probably killed before and he just wasn't connected to the murders.
@@deniserossiter1059 ok Sherlock
I am 45 years old and I'm also a recovering addict I have been using since I was 16. And I can tell you from experience that addiction is stronger than a mother's love. Thank God on the 28th of this month I will have 7 years clean so there is hope
Addiction is bullshit. Just stop taking drugs its obvious. Acting like its some illness is just your excuse for being weak. Blaming it on some, "trauma" is simply another excuse. Stop being weak, sort your life out and shut up you peasant.
Stay strong Amy❤
@@allispossible8447 thank you 🙏
Well done
really fucking proud of you ❤️❤️
These sadistic killers are the first to complain. If the handcuffs are too tight they'll cry about it. It's too bad they didn't care about their victims. They suffered horribly.
Fortunately in prison other inmates consider perps like him as scum who are only one rung up from child killers/rapists, and so treat them accordingly!
This world is too sick for my liking
Truly Criminal is the best Crime Serial on the Web!. No ego, no snarly pants, dopey running commentary , No Narcissism , We don't need to see you.. Just the facts. Brilliant! . To all the other Crime Channels.. Take note of how it's supposed to be done!..
@Valmach: I totally agree with you (I know this is late) However Forensic Files is also a great channel and lacks all those flaws as well.
What an observant and clever cop.
Respect.
He was very clever and had so much courage facing this psychopath alone
Yes, there are a couple around!!!!🙄
I saw a crime show on this case. That detective literally has a photographic memory. He can recall every detail about every crime scene he'd ever been involved in. He said it's a blessing and a curse. He also worked the NFL quarterback Steve McNair case.
My big sister Latishas DNA was found in his truck. 15yrs later,her body has yet to be found. There isn't anyone working my sisters case. This man hasn't even been charged in her murder or disappearance. She's technically a missing person 15yrs later. Drug user or not,my sis never went more than a day without calling & checking on her then 4yr old son. SMH
Omg
I'm so sorry 😞
I cannot imagine what you all are going through but I do pray that she is found and you and her children along with other loved ones find closure, Justice, and peace.
He killed my sister in law's sister. They lived in Linden Tn. They treat some women like they're nobody
@@marshapieroni6677, Lot lizards have to deal with high hazardous conditions, tell them to find another line of "work".
This is absolutely terrifying.. Although dude looks like a fucking creep .. he could definitely pass as someone's grandpa. No criminal record yet went right to killing women...? I'm convinced he just wasn't caught for other crimes he probably committed. Thanks for another great episode! This has become my favorite channel on this platform for true crime cases. Thank you so much for all the hard you and your crew put into all these episodes
Ted Bundy once said "we are everywhere. We are your father's, brothers, sons . . ."
YOu mean he could pass as someone's grandMA.
That hairstyle
He sure does like the stereotypical crazed killer, in the photos you see when you search him online. I imagine he looked a bit more normal when he was active…
I agree. He didn't just start killing women at 60. He's been killing for years. He just hasn't got caught till now.
💕🧐That's exactly right!🤔 ☠️ Like, for all we know, this guy may very well still have ☠️bodies☠️out there,UNfound/that everyone's totally UNAWARE of that may possibly Never EvEr be found! And the really messed up part, IMO, would be that say he actually DOES unfortunately have more victims out there and he's decided to take the details and locations etc., With him to his grave...😤🤬🙄😬..
This is yet another case of someone who is CLEARLY not 'Wired Right'.
I absolutely love your channel. Everytime I watch a video, I feel as though I am watching journalists reporting a crime.
Yall ate strictly factual. Yall make it wholly about the case. Most true crime UA-camrs put themselves in view, and that's completely fine, I love those channels as well, but I I really appreciate that yall never put yourselves on camera. Yall research the cases, learn as much as yall can, and present the case with all the facts and pictures of victims, law enforcement, key persons, scenes, the perpetrator, and any others having to do with the case ♥ It makes this channel unique from all the true crime channels. I believe that yall would be excellent investigators and journalists.
Totally agree, like can i see some pics and stuff and focus on the case instead of the narrator/video host... you're so right lady! This is why this is one of my top crime channels - other true crime channels whose hosts are NOT in the video like you mentioned, and that i regularly watch include Disturban, Shrouded Hand as well as Dark Curiosities, Lazy Masquerade, and Cadaber
I couldn’t agree more. Those thumbnails with the UA-camrs’ faces (often beautifully made up) are a little icky to me, given the nature of the content. Also, the way cases are presented on this channel is elegant without dramatisations for the sake of ‘entertainment’. It is strict factual and sensitive to the victims and their families.
@@flaviamusoni4259 another thing I really appreciate is how they never offer their opinions on any case. They never make it about them. There's no commentary in-between from the narrator, their feelings, opinions, etc, about things are kept out of it. Strictly about the case, presenting facts, and putting a face to the names in the case.
@@chelseapthib36 Precisely. The fact that they do not insert their opinions comes across as more professional and respectful. The facts of the case are enough. I’m sure other true crime UA-camrs mean well in making statements as though they knew the parties concerned, but it comes across as disingenuous.
@@flaviamusoni4259 I've seen quite a few people make that complaint about Bailey Sarian. She has millions of subscribers, and there's always comments on her videos about the jokes she makes, or her laughing in the middle of telling the story, and how she acts silly sometimes. I've even left her a comment about certain things she's said that I just felt was inappropriate. I'm not bashing her or anyone else, their channel,, they can do what they want, and I do watch alot of true crime channels 🤷🏽♀️ but this channel is unique in the way that they don't make it about themselves, and I can really appreciate that.
One thing that gets me is how these crazy killers have families and supposed normal lives outside thier sick crimes. It just goes to show, you just never know🤨
Distant relative to somebody I know! Scary how people seem to lead such normal lives and are actually low-key psycho. 😬😶🌫️
Thank you for your kindness toward the victims. No one deserves that kind of fate.
I know right usually they don't really investigate sec worker addicts murders. Thank the lord the detective saw them as human beings and took this matter serious and took off feet first hitting that pavement
This channel uploads= i MUST drop everything to watch. And i always give a thumbs up before even watching because I know I'm gonna get top notch quality!!!
I do exactly the same !
A very sick and twisted individual. He thought these woman, mothers, sisters and daughters were disposable but they’re not. Regardless of why they were in this kind of work, doesn’t mean that people didn’t love them or miss them. May they all Rest In Peace and I hope they find more evidence to connect him of more murders so more families can put their loved ones at peace. 😢
I wonder if he’d feel anything at all if someone targeted his own daughters in such a manner, but someone willing to take that much life (and sometimes one life) clearly has no empathy for the living.
With the compassion and knowledge of how you cover a case, I can tell how much you care for the lost souls. May they all have eternal peace and rest 🙏🕊️❤️ You're one of the best on UA-cam. 😊
I also ignore my neighbours, but I don't go around killing people. So I don't see how that is relevant.
🤣🤣🤣
@@Dominique_99 why are u laughing
Same 😂
It’s still weird to completely ignore someone saying hello or good morning to you…
@bettercallnadiya it’s not weird. it’s more rude than anything
I have an ex who is a long haul trucker. If someone told me he was a serial killer dumping bodies along his route from Texas to Oregon, it would not surprise me one bit.
😆 🤣 😂 damn why?
Kandrea's World : it seems you have dodged a bullet love.
Least he’s your ex
I grew up in Albion where he lived and I can agree after you make so much money people do bad bad things
Would day a lot about you wouldn’t it?? If he was he definitely showed you some signs
The fact that he tried to claim that dead bodies just coincidentally ended up in his truck was shocking. Glad he’ll never get out.
Truly horrifying, and the sicko slept in the same place where he killed them. Pure evil
Utterly disgusting 🤮
This is one of the best true crime channels on UA-cam.
Thank you for creating it.
Thank you Truly Criminal, love your content and productions values .
They should just take this guy out back and be done with him,his fate is dark,why waste any resources on him
What a monster this creep is. I feel so bad for these women, they had rough lives already and he totally steals any chances they had at repairing their lives. And while it's probably just me being paranoid I live like 40 minutes south of Indianapolis and over the years he was killing I had work in Louisville Kentucky and Indy, and I drove the interstates between the cities almost everyday.
Just makes me wonder if by chance I ever just even passed this guy on the road. You just never know when you're passing by a killer, and that is terrifying.
It truly is. I appreciate your compassion for girls and women on the streets. My home girl and friend was murdered by a guy posing as a trick. He strangled her and beat her in the head. She was a lovely person who’d had an extremely hard life. I miss her so much. R.I.P. Necole Schneider.
@@brittaolson6550 that's so terribly sad. I'm sorry for your loss and what Necole went thru. You just never know what circumstances make people have to do the things they do to try and survive. It's tragic.
@@brittaolson6550 isn't that pussycat dolls
stray cats version!
R.I.P though
Are you serious? They willingly became drug users. That's not a rough life. It's knowingly choosing a path of self-destruction.
I like the way this show handles the subject matter. True Crime reporters in the US are, often, all too chipper and full of smiles. The case is eerie in and of itself, without a carnival atmosphere. I am studying the neurobiology of addiction, and have a B.A. in Sociology. I’m also in recovery, myself. My heart goes out to people still struggling with active addictions. It’s tragic, twisted, and wrongheaded when people like Rhoades treat them like they are worthless. The only thing that’s trashy is treating other human beings like trash.
Detective Postiglione is a World Class Gentleman & Detective. he has a photographic memory! He was also the host of investigation discovery channel’s deadly recall. he would tell the show people exactly what the scene looked like from memory and then go through the case. Absolutely amazing! I don’t think it’s running anymore but if you can, find some episodes.
I've watched all his episodes. I don't understand why it only ran 6 episodes or so. He's a gentleman genius with a photographic memory as you stated. Any law enforcement agency would be lucky to have him.
I couldnt even imagine wat anyone who is killed an tortured must have went thru. RIP to those that passed.
Learn how to spell you utter moron.
2:15 minutes in and I'm totally understanding her actions when they say "WITHOUT her children she fell deeper in"
I love this channel and the way the tragic stories are told in a respectful manner.

This channel is significantly underrated. You are my favorite TC delivery system ♥️
It's a good channel. It's on my list of the TOP 14 TC channels I sub to. I've watched OVER 50 TC channels and only kept the TOP 14. There are others just as good and even better tho
@@kenkaniff8428 there are quite a bit of good TC channels but this one is tops for me. I love Dave’s lemonade, Matt orchard, just a thought lounge, TC, CC, EWU, 10 to life, dreading, Nora and Kendall. There’s a few more but those are my go-tos. Have any to add?! :)
@@kellyharris8976 sure. I've checked out over 60 TC channels and only kept the TOP 17 that I really enjoy and gotten rid of MOST of them. I'm really picky and we all have our own style that we like so I'll give you my list: This is monsters, Just Thought Lounge, That Chapter, Twisted Minds, Red Tree Crime, Dire Trip, Truly Criminal, The Fear Files, Crime Time Time, Stay Awake, Misery Machine and my ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE is DEADBUG SAYS!!! Misery Machine can be really difficult to listen to cuz it's always crimes @gainst children but it's a husband and wife team and they do an excellent job of the cases. But DEADBUG SAYS is BY FAR THE BEST channel on YT as far as I'm concerned!! NOBODY is doing what he does and he's very unique. He has movie quality content and is like a Quinten Tarantino 70s retro style and is very raw and uncensored but his content is unlike ANYTHING else on YT! YT has him on a shadow ban so he gets NO money from them and they refuse to promote or help him. They try very hard to keep him hidden. It's really terrible how they treat him! They hate him but he is INCREDIBLE!! He's not for everyone but for me personally he has THE BEST CONTENT on YT. His artistic style is unlike anything you've ever seen. DEFINITELY give him a shot!! He may be too raw and uncensored for you but he's ABSOLUTELY worth looking into! I hope you enjoy the channels I listed. I know you mentioned a couple of them already so it seems like you'll enjoy most if not all of them I listed. Come back here and tell me what you think of deadbug at least please!! I'd like to know if you enjoy all of them but at least tell me your thoughts on DEADBUG. I'll be here waiting to hear what you think. At least of DB.
@@kellyharris8976 I too do dreading and Daves Lemonade and the 2 others I mentioned in my list. Did you mean MORI and not Nora? Mori is good also but not heard of Nora
@@kenkaniff8428 is this your 'special interest' if you don't mind me asking?
I wonder what the statistics are regarding long haul truckers being murderers? Seems to me it would be high.
Google says it isn't that high, about 0.0075%. Estimated 300 out of 4 million. They are number 2 on the semi skilled labor list though.
I would think it would be harder to catch them though.
Pat Postiglione is a superb cop and an even better human being.

Such a vicious monster.
It's scary to think about how many more are out there just like him.
I love how consistent you are with uploads. Can always count on a dope video being dropped everyday Saturday.
Great work by detectives and prosecution, yes Sara and Samantha where a human being's, a mother, daughter, sister and very loving. I love this channel, so respectful, not overuse of the victims name
Your voice narrating is my favourite of all , Ive this channel. Always crimes ive never heard of shocking stuff. Great work xx
I just discovered this channel today and I've already watched so many. This is a brilliant channel, so informative and respectful to the victims. Subscribed so quick and can't wait to work my way through all the videos.
All drugs should be decriminalized and regulated and addicts given treatment. And take the distribution of drugs away from the criminals
That would be the smart thing to do , one country actually has don’t that and drug use dropped pretty significantly
Prescription drug addiction is a far bigger problem than street drugs, but they don't want to tell you that.
Perhaps docs should stop over prescribing meds (most are only ever intended for short term use anyway) and government should put money into mental health support. But Big pharma, that colossal great money spinner, would never allow it to happen
Recovering addict here and that is so true, big pharma is evil@@thehangingparsiple5692

He looks so effeminate. I wonder if he had a hatred towards women because he secretly wanted to be one?
It doesn’t matter what the women did or problems they had. He murdered them and he was pure evil
I have literally watched every video uploaded to this channel now. I'm still consistently asking, "What the f*ck is wrong with people?".
So crazy! Why did he get the insurance money when he was in prison, It should have gone to his kids/grand kids, or to the families of his victims or a charity, Anywhere but to him.
Just wat I need to end my night. A new episode from my fav channel on UA-cam!!! You’ve outdid urself once again. Thank u!!!

Truckers are fuxkers LOL love a tasteless joke me
Thank you for another great video. Your narration is very good. Blessings to you from Texas
Thank you for covering this very real and ongoing problem. I only wish you'd titled it with the actual issue. He was a TRUCK DRIVER serial killer. The FBI has a map with around 700 unsolved homicides, the majority female, where bodies have been found along or near interstate highways. Many of the sex workers that frequent truck stops and go missing meet their end at the hand of truck driver serial killers. They have suspected that there are several serial killers driving trucks at any given time. Go check out Keith Hunter Jesperson. He's doing life instead of the death penalty because he gave up some locations of his victims. They call him the Happy Face Killer.
Oh I heard about him his daughter did an interview and says he was a fantastic father that use to take her to a waterfall I forget where but it turns out that same spot he would take his daughter they found a few bodies so I'm guessing he was reliving or watching for any activities didn't occur without his knowledge he looks like a normal regular good father he can fool anyone into thinking he was a nice guy if only they knew they were sitting near satan himself
But you thought he only killed truck drivers lol? Drivers who are tracked by gps to monitor they’ll be on time and will be expected at the destination ? 😉
Also Robert Ben Rhoades!
@@amazingsupergirl7125 lol "a truck driver killer is on the lose on our highways.. his m.o is he pulls over drivers with the incorrect tyre pressure and offers to inflate their tyres for free. they are never seen again. he does follow through on his promise, leaving their truck tyres inflated to the correct psi."
He did got his victims at truck stops, was motivated by seeing them at truck stops, found the easiest access to them at truck stops, etc.
I used drive a semi truck driver, Tennessee, and especially in Nashville and Memphis. The truck stops are so dank and creepy.
So many sex workers, and rift raft. The poor women are so lost.
This is sad
Yeah that's so sad they never saw it coming until to late they were entertaining satan. Smh lord save their souls, I hope they're now resting in power.
I’ve always wondered if it like what’s shown in the movies is true, cheers for that
@@staceysmith8292Some truck stops are nice and this one in Nashville was a dumpster fire,this truck stop is no longer open the land will be used for something else but it’s not because of this serial killer it remained opened until 2023
How have I never heard of this monster?? Thank you for the very well done vid.🤯💔
Det. Postiglioni is awesome. I first saw him on Cold Justice.
he has a photographic memory.
@debbarringer1967 Indeed he does. He said it's both a blessing and a curse. Any law enforcement agency would love to have him on their team.

So scary!
This monster is horrific!
I'm thinking he is not the only serial killer truck driver...
This means of transportation is ideal for a killer...
I read that long haul truck drivers have a greater chance of being killers, the distances they travel and the fact that being alone for hours at a time weeks on end is not good for mental health plus a lot are loners to begin with.
@@christinecox6049 😯😱😯
I’m a trucker. Half the truckers I see out here look like SKs or chomos.
This job tends to attract a lot of scumbags for some reason.
Yep, especially in a vast country with thousands of forests and highways!!🙄😫
My mom once transported Bruce mendenhall. She said it was the scariest moment of her life. She said it was the way he looked at her. Very creepy guy
The harrowing effects of drug addiction are etched into their wretched faces as they stare back at you in those photos.
However, for all their faults and lifestyle choices, no one deserves the fate they befell from a monster!
These depraved minds can't feel or imagine the pain of the families. These are prime effects of being reard w/ abuse.
The Detective in this case has a tv show that’s excellent!

Serial killers and pedophiles should get an automatic death sentence, period.
Hear hear
P eace : I agree so much.
For sure but then we have the do gooders
By firing squad and not after sitting for decades on death row.
Well said 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. And the bloody do gooders can seriously get f?!ed . They should have something serious happen to someone close to them by these criminals . And undergo the same heart wrenching pain the affected families are undergoing. Then I wanna see whether they so called do gooders will still be so forgiving towards this group of criminals .
Great story guys! Thank u. May i suggest you look into Bryer Schmegelsky and Kam McLeod case. Would make a good story.
Detective Pat Postiglione is a legend. An almost psychic intuition.
Something so disturbing to hear, "They found DNA from a woman whose family didn't know she was missing yet...." ...damn
Interesting that he's seen as not having a motive. Isn't he the very definition of a sexual sadist?
Sounds like he just enjoyed killing for the sake of killing and found that street workers were the easiest to get a hold of and gain their trust quick enough to get into that creepy truck.
I love this channel
The fact that Bruce specifically used the phrase "dumped her body" when he was still claiming to be innocent was very telling. That's not how an innocent person who was shocked to discover a dead woman in their truck would describe it.
I always look forward to ur content
This is my kind of channel!
These truck driver killers can be hard to track down but once they are found it should be pretty simple to match them to the crimes through their schedule of travel but even easier these days with GPS. If a company owns the truck they almost always have GPS on the truck. That should make it very easy but in the earlier years they still had gas receipts and travel logs
Congratulations you really are a detectives wet dream
A former FBI agent has written a book about the over 850 bodies found along highways across the US. After investigations they’ve been linked to truck drivers. The FBI estimates there are approximately 450 serial murderers driving trucks across the US currently. The book covers The Truck Stop Killer who killed over 50 women and The Interstate Strangler who killed at least 12. The name of the book is called Long Haul by Frank Fugliuzzi.
Pat Postigleone (sp*) is a blessing for Nashville he solved so many cases! One case not solved was my aunts sister who went missing many years ago and she was never located. She was considered deceased but never figured out who it was that did it neither.
How did he have access to the insurance money while serving a life sentence? WTF?
Tennessee has the death penalty doesn’t it?
Thats a strange statenent. He gets lawyers to set it all up or a family member. You may FEEL he doesn't DESERVE it but he was the beneficiary on the claim. Very simple. The fact that he's a murderer doesn't make him exempt from collecting on his wife's life insurance policy. He almost certainly paid into it for many years. Why can't he collect?🤔

Absolutely shocking!!!! No way can a person argue with DNA evidence.

I was childhood friends with one of the victims, Carma Purpura. We went to school together for quite a few years. She was such a wonderful person. This man will go down in infamy as one of America's most evil people.
His daughter saying he didn’t have bad opinions about sex workers or didn’t think about that is so dumb… it seems like she must still be in denial about his crimes. All of the victims were female sex workers, does she think that’s a coincidence??
I know she made me wanna throw up in my mouth when she said that crap
It can be just as much the fact that he preyed on vulnerable people, that he knew wouldn't be looked for or cared for if they disappeared... a lot of serial killers have gone after prostitutes because of that reason!
So many holier than though comments have a bit of empathy I’m sure when this girl was a youngster she didn’t see her future as being a drug addict single mother life happens people, mistakes are made show some respect! Also sex workers are people too!
The low life here are not the victims. People never fail to amaze me. 😞
Being a single parent, sure, life happens. But drug abuse is a choice.

@@natalia_00123 How about we all walk a mile in other peoples shoes before we become judge mental isn’t that what is said?!!!! Ayu people make mistakes stop with this holier than though attitude desperate people do desperate things or are offered drugs and yes choose to take those drugs! I’m sure you have done things in your past that you wish you hadn’t and could change or take back??! Judgey wudgey much??!!
They just victim blaming at this point.
A chance sighting of the truck by that police officer led to this brutal murderer being locked away forever. What an Evil evil man, his daughter was so wrong about him, he saw the victims as worthless judging by the way he left their bodies, degrading them even in death. My heartfelt condolences go out to their families. This man is truly a monster
3:02 hmmmmm yeah I wouldn’t take that as gospel. I’m guessing the security guard was “meant” to do a patrol every 30 minutes…. That doesn’t mean he did.
Thank you for covering this case. I was in & out of jail/prison for yrs, till I got myself together went back to school & getting ready to start my criminology degree this year. The fear from this case spread way beyond TN & GA. I was in Lowell CC in FL at the time. With this being a uk channel, if anyone dont know GA borders FL.
I was back in the Y.O 16-21 yo in Lowell at the time, with charges all related to an addiction to meth, & heroin, & caused by self medicating then, undiagnosed BPD/Bipolar. So being so close, & targeting young addicts (Luckiky I never worked the streets to feed addiction. To me I'd have done virtually anything to avoid withdrawal. It's not a bad flu! It's something you can't describe, but take the worst flu x 100 along with major anxiety every min feels like an hour). But I would literally have rather coped through withdrawal than work the streets. But obv I know the desperation these woman had. The fear was so widespread across states, that woman even non workers were said to be carrying some form of defense. It's the only time I was thankful in a way to be locked up on the compound, while this went down.
My interest in social sciences, esp criminology & truecrime led to my choice returning to study. But hope even in even some small way, when I graduate to get into research. As every amount of research of these cases, could prevent even 1 more tragedy.
I know fs the cops don't & won't take it as serious as a normal homicide, when it involves sex workers. That's wrong on every level. These woman didn't grow up wanting to work the streets, & they're mom's, sisters, daughters, nieces, granddaughters. RIP to all those woman, & all the others who've died at the hands of a sadistic monster.
Whatever views on sex work are, no one deserves this, apart from (& I'm 💯 anti DP) cho mos or baby killers. I'd not advocate for DP for anyone but sure wouldn't be sad if 1 of those met a bad end.
But really no one should suffer this, & no one no matter how sick their "fantasies" are, should commit acts like this. They can wanna do it, but actually doing it is whole new level evil.
Urgh literally no-one cares
This is completely mind blowing!!!! I live in Lake Station Indiana and at that time those bodies were found I was working at TA truck stop...... What a very sick individual I hope that everybody will be healed from this monsters gruesome crimes!!!!!!
My thoughts and prayers are with all the women who lost their lifes at the hands of this man, and to their children and families. I hope someday they will find peace. Love from Ireland 🇮🇪 ❤ ♥
This shook Nashville up! This truck stop and overall exit in general is a very popular one for travelers and locals! We commonly use this exit esp at night because it's well lit and has quite a bit of stuff at that exit
Unbelievable the bs story he tried selling. That's the best he could do?
His motives can be explained by forensic psychologists... maybe the DOJ just does not bother about this depraved and wretched man
"Not aggravated so no death penalty???" Umm.....
Joke
Thank you 😊 💓
Fuck yeah, you posted finally! Hope we see more regular content soon!
