Episode Transcript
He wanted underwear, clothing that he was steel. In the neighborhood.
He was certainly a peeping tom looking through the windows,
looking at people, fantasizing about what he could do.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
He would imagine creating what he called girl traps, where
they would be totally helpless. He would have complete control
and domination over them.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
He liked the appearance of bondage, where someone is stuck
someone's control, someone can't get away. As he began to age,
he then began entering the houses.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
He felt very powerful. He could get into their home,
take something, and get out and not be caught. People
were not there, but he would stand in their home.
He felt that sense of violation.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Someone killed four members of a family, two children and
two adults. That was shocking. It just didn't happen here.
Speaker 4 (01:07):
You see the victims lay in there with plastic bags
over their heads, strangled, and then you see children. You
see how brutal they were treated, and you could tell
there was a planned scenario. There was a script.
Speaker 3 (01:27):
He went to a local church, he was in charge
of the congregation. He was going to the grocery store
with us, he was going to the movies with us.
I would have never guessed that he was the guy
next door.
Speaker 5 (01:44):
I am compelled to kill by factor X, the same
factor that motivated Son of Sam. How many people do
have to kill before I get my name in the paper?
Speaker 3 (02:00):
From the creators of Atlanta, Monster comes the next installment
in the Monster franchise.
Speaker 5 (02:06):

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
