(+) Yeah! (+)

https://www.newsweek.com/dad-was-serial-killer-woman-says-cadaver-dogs-scour-field-nightmares-1754083?fs=e&s=cl

The father died in 2013, she claims he killed 50-70 women who were mostly sex workers he'd pick up in Omaha and had her and her siblings help him bury them in a well among other spots on his property

It's so terrifying to think of how many missing people that were never found again were the victims of serial killers who never got caught

It's like that movie Frailty

why wait...

For 45 years, Lucy Studey told anyone who would listen that her father had murdered scores of young women and buried them with the help of his children. No one believed her. Cadaver dogs have now pinpointed suspected human remains at the spots she identified in a remote stretch of western Iowa, investigators told Newsweek.

oh.

It's crazy that no one would believe her. It's one thing to think "oh it's just a dumb kid with a wild imagination" but even as an adult?

Thats fucked up that nobody would listen to her

I guess sometimes people say things that sound so outlandish they can't possibly be true, and "my dad murdered 40 hookers and forced me and my siblings to hide the bodies" is exactly the sort of thing that falls under that category. Most people probably just smiled awkwardly and then started figuring out how to exit the convo

I wonder if any of them will apologize now

She clearly didnt tell that to the police. At least not after eighteen.

They will definitely come out and listen.

Yep. Hell, the fbi can be contacted through effing Twitter if it comes down to it.

It is Iowa after all. Not that surprising.

Wasn't there a recent story of a black community going to the cops saying a serial killer was murdering black women?

The cops ignored it, and then turns out there was a serial killer?

Yep

If only the people reporting these serial killers were white men, maybe the cops would actually listen -_-

I mean... did she tell police or did she tell random people at the diner?

I don't think this story is true because if it was it would be all over CNN

CNN had an article about it when the story broke last week

As far as I know theyre still getting ready to do the excavation so no real updates yet

I'd be primed not to believe this just based on the number of victims she's claiming.

Sounds very made up.

Over like 30 years though thats just a couple kills per year. Not too out of the realm of possibility for him to pick up a hooker in Omaha and take her to his remote trailer 40 minutes away a couple times a year

Which is fine.

You still investigate it, or you are bad at your job.

So, the killer got away and died of old age of 75, and now his children are facing scrutiny for his actions?

Sheesh.
