Kenna 3 00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:05,000 I'm Koelle. 4 00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:06,000 Why did I like, forget my name? 5 00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:07,000 I don't know. 6 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:09,000 Welcome back to diagnosing a Killer. 7 00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:11,000 Kenna Crystal Meth. 8 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:13,000 Kenna Crystal Meth. 9 00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:36,000 That's my new handle. 10 00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:39,000 Hello everybody! How is it going? 11 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:41,000 Welcome back. You don't like this intro? 12 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,000 It's alright. It's fine. I could deal. 13 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:48,000 So we are back today with another case. 14 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:53,000 Before we get started, we got an email from someone that we don't know. 15 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,000 We're not poking at the email. 16 00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,000 We love getting emails from people we don't know. 17 00:00:58,000 --> 00:00:59,000 Literally, it's amazing. 18 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:02,000 I'm not going to put her name in there just because I'm not sure if she's comfortable with it, 19 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:07,000 but I will say the inbox subject was Yauzer, which I love already. 20 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:08,000 Yauzer. 21 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:09,000 That's already amazing. 22 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:14,000 The email says, ladies, smiley face, I just finished episode 6. 23 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:18,000 I just love, love, and two heart emojis, your podcast. 24 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:23,000 Okay, I want to know after several years of listening to interesting murderous podcasts 25 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:27,000 and then deleting good podcasts because I can't hear or understand the speakers 26 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:30,000 because of annoying music in the background or echoes, etc. 27 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:34,000 Why does your podcast sound perfect without my turning all my bass down, 28 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,000 treble up, and volume to 60? 29 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,000 And besides all of that, you're funnier than fuck. 30 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:42,000 Sorry to your mom, LOL. 31 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:47,000 The only complaint is going to be you won't be able to put them out fast enough to keep up with my binge. 32 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:48,000 I love your banter. 33 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,000 I love that you leave in the funny little mistakes you make. 34 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:55,000 So way to go from Up the Mountain and Pagosa Springs, Katerat. 35 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,000 Yay! 36 00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,000 Thank you so much for that lovely email. 37 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:04,000 I literally immediately screenshotted it and sent it to Koella Season Gaming 38 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,000 and I got really excited and I sent it to my mom as she saw. 39 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:13,000 I would say the only thing that we do, I think differently than people that I've seen, 40 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:18,000 maybe like a video of them recording is that we're in a tiny little closet. 41 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:21,000 Yeah, first of all, we're in a closet surrounded by clothing. 42 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,000 But also we share one microphone. 43 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:27,000 A lot of people have their own microphone and they have like a screen in front of it. 44 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:33,000 We actually have the Yeti Blue microphone that we just, we have like a little TV tray 45 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,000 with the computer and the microphone on the tray and then we both sit like 46 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,000 equal distance from the microphone. 47 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:42,000 In little tiny child children, like children sized chairs. 48 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:43,000 Like wooden chairs. 49 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,000 Like I'm eating my knees right now. 50 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:49,000 Yeah, my butt bones hurt every time we finish recording. 51 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,000 No pain, no gain, it's for the audience. 52 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:56,000 But yeah, I think that might be the reason we turn our gain like just right in the middle, 53 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,000 like not too high, not too low. 54 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,000 We try not to get way too close to the microphone because then it seems like we're shouting. 55 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:04,000 We're very critical of how we sound. 56 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,000 We're very critical. 57 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:11,000 Like we even discussed recently in the last few episodes that we felt there's certain 58 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:17,000 points where we laugh too hard or talk this loud and it's very, it blows out your speakers. 59 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:21,000 Don't be driving listening to us because I'm bougie like that. 60 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:22,000 Yeah, I do too. 61 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:23,000 I like binge listen to our podcast. 62 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,000 I like to know. 63 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:29,000 And then, you know, I feel like it gives me more awareness too if I feel like I said something 64 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:33,000 like, oh, that's a little, then it's like, yeah, I shouldn't do that next time. 65 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:37,000 I shouldn't say that next time or I shouldn't, you know, phrase it that way next time or things like that. 66 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:38,000 Yeah. 67 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:42,000 And then like the first thing she said that she had listened to episode six and so I immediately 68 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,000 went listen to episode six. 69 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:45,000 I was like, what did you hear? 70 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:46,000 Oh my gosh, she was listening to my voice. 71 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,000 I didn't even know. 72 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:48,000 I feel so conscious. 73 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,000 But it's like, that's why we do this. 74 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,000 So thank you so much for the nice email. 75 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,000 There's also Instagram if you want to hit us. 76 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,000 Cause I tried to look you up on Instagram and I couldn't find you. 77 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:58,000 Don't do that. 78 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,000 I was trying to see if she was following the diagnosis. 79 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:01,000 Oh, I see. 80 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,000 You know, or the diagnosing insta, but I don't see anybody by that name. 81 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,000 Anyways, thank you so much for the lovely email. 82 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,000 We hope to hopefully keep up with your binge. 83 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:13,000 We're trying to post an episode a week, whether it be a mental breakdown or a case. 84 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:17,000 So hopefully that'll help you get your fix. 85 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,000 If you will. 86 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:20,000 I'm so excited. 87 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:21,000 I must know. 88 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:22,000 Yeah. 89 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,000 About the case. 90 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:24,000 Yes. 91 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,000 So I've been talking about this case for a little while now. 92 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:30,000 I would say one that most of the listeners will probably know, at least the name. 93 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:37,000 I personally, I knew the name and I kind of knew the story, but I kind of, uh, I learned a lot when I was doing my research. 94 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:41,000 So we're going to get right into it. 95 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:45,000 This guy is perhaps the deadliest serial killer of all time. 96 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,000 Do you have a guess? 97 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,000 I'm just writing to that H3. 98 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:50,000 H3. 99 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,000 You ever seen that? 100 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:53,000 H3. 101 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,000 When he's like talking to that girl. 102 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:56,000 I don't even know. 103 00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:01,000 It's that woman that's on his podcast with him and every time she finishes it's an N. 104 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,000 Oh, yeah. 105 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,000 Oh yeah. 106 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,000 It's the girl that does the voiceover. 107 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,000 You know you do that, right? 108 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,000 After a recent. 109 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:12,000 No, I don't. 110 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:13,000 No, I don't. 111 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,000 What are you talking about? 112 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:16,000 I do. 113 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:17,000 She doesn't even realize. 114 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:18,000 It's so funny. 115 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:19,000 She's funny. 116 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:20,000 She's hilarious. 117 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,000 Did you know that Biden quoted Hamilton? 118 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:23,000 And he's like, what? 119 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,000 She's like, yeah, he quoted Hamilton. 120 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:29,000 He did the, you know, we give these truths to be self-evident and all men are created. 121 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:30,000 He's like, what? 122 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,000 He's like, that's from Hamilton. 123 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,000 He's like, no, it's not. 124 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:35,000 No, it is not. 125 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,000 Hamilton quoted that. 126 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,000 Anyways, do you have a guess for the person? 127 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:43,000 The most deadliest serial killer? 128 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:44,000 In America. 129 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:45,000 In America. 130 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,000 In America. 131 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:48,000 There's Ted Bundy. 132 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,000 There's Jeffrey Dahmer. 133 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:51,000 There's. 134 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,000 You would think. 135 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:54,000 Kemper. 136 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:55,000 There's. 137 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:56,000 That's a good guess, but no. 138 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,000 See, I feel like he doesn't get talked about as much as the big guys. 139 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:00,000 Kemper. 140 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:01,000 No. 141 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:02,000 This guy, I'm doing it. 142 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:03,000 Oh, okay. 143 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:04,000 Samuel Little. 144 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:05,000 See. 145 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:06,000 Oh, you even know. 146 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:07,000 Oh, Samuel Little. 147 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:08,000 He's the, he's the, uh, Green River? 148 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:09,000 Is he? 149 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,000 No. 150 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:11,000 No, he was. 151 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:12,000 No, he was Golden Gate. 152 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:13,000 He's, he's gone. 153 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:18,000 He got named the infamous Chokin Stroke Killer. 154 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,000 I'm not fucking calling him that. 155 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,000 I'm not fucking calling him that. 156 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,000 That's giving him way too much credit. 157 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:27,000 Chokin Stroke. 158 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:28,000 Isn't that terrible? 159 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:29,000 That is horrible. 160 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:30,000 I'm going to call him. 161 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:31,000 What year was this? 162 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:32,000 The. 163 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:33,000 It was the 1930s? 164 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,000 No, it was like the 70s to 90s. 165 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:36,000 Okay. 166 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,000 Anyways, we're going to get started since, uh, you don't know as much as I thought you 167 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:40,000 would about him. 168 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:41,000 So excited about this. 169 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:49,000 Samuel Little was born as Samuel McDowell on June 7th, 1940, and Reynolds, Georgia to 170 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,000 parents, Bessie May Little and Paul McDowell. 171 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:56,000 I couldn't find the mother's age when Samuel was born, but it did say that Paul was only 172 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:57,000 19 when he was born. 173 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,000 Oh, they were young teenage parents. 174 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:00,000 Oh, this was 1940s. 175 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,000 They might as well be in their thirties. 176 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:03,000 Yeah, that's true. 177 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:07,000 So there's actually two different stories about his parents that I found. 178 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:12,000 Uh, one was stated by himself and the other was stated by like the police or something. 179 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:13,000 I don't know. 180 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:18,280 But one of the stories which Samuel had said was that his mother was a teenage sex worker 181 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:23,400 who lived with her mother and actually abandoned him on the side of the road after Paul, the 182 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,280 father was out of the picture. 183 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:29,360 While other sources said that authorities believed Bessie was actually in jail when she 184 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,000 gave birth to him. 185 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:32,880 Oh, unsure which one is true. 186 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:37,840 But either way, Paul McDowell, his father was out of the picture and Samuel was given 187 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:43,240 to his grandmother shortly after he was born when his last name was changed to Little. 188 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:47,240 Once given to his grandmother, the both of them went to Lorraine, Ohio, where Samuel was 189 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,060 brought up by both of his grandparents. 190 00:07:50,060 --> 00:07:53,720 Not much is known about Samuel from early childhood until middle school, but when he 191 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:58,360 reached middle school, he actually attended Hawthorne Junior High School. 192 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:01,960 And by all accounts, he had many problems with discipline and achievement. 193 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:05,800 You know, most of the time I feel like we talk about people that were troubled, you 194 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:10,040 know, growing up and especially into adulthood, but their childhood, maybe it was good or 195 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:11,920 you know, there's no red flags. 196 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:16,440 This was like a shit show from the start. 197 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:22,200 Later on, Samuel would recall that during his childhood, like kindergarten, he would 198 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:26,920 have sexual fantasies about strangling women. 199 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:32,200 And it started when he saw his kindergarten teacher like touch her neck and he was like, 200 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:33,880 oh, he like really fixated on the neck. 201 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:34,880 On her neck. 202 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:35,880 Huh. 203 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:41,000 And as a teen, he was noted as collecting true crime magazines that depicted women being 204 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:42,000 choked. 205 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:43,000 Choking stroke. 206 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:44,000 Choking stroke. 207 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,640 During his time in middle school, he was also caught stealing. 208 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:52,000 And at the age of 13, he was sent to a reformatory school for teenage boys. 209 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,400 This is in 1954. 210 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:58,680 It was noted that when arriving at this school, it was written in his notes, like his folder, 211 00:08:58,680 --> 00:09:02,400 that his mother's whereabouts were quote unknown. 212 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:05,960 It was reported that he attended this school for only a year. 213 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:10,840 And during this time, he ended up with 47 disciplinary reports. 214 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:11,840 In a year. 215 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:12,840 In a year. 216 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:13,840 That's a school year. 217 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:14,840 Not even a full year. 218 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:19,240 It's like six months. 219 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:21,200 Obviously this meant that he was kicked out of the school. 220 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:27,360 And by the age of 16, he actually found himself kind of like drifting around the US hitchhiking, 221 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:33,640 whatever, and was quickly arrested for it said one source at burglary, one source said 222 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:37,800 be any like breaking entering in Omaha, Nebraska. 223 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:41,520 Due to this arrest, he was sent to juvie and was done with school after this. 224 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,240 He's like, you know, I don't think that's for me. 225 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:44,240 Yeah. 226 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:49,480 Now, from the ages of 16 to 20, Samuel was already getting his track record started with 227 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:50,480 his crimes. 228 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:56,680 In and out of juvie and jail for various crimes such as theft, DUI, assault, armed robbery 229 00:09:56,680 --> 00:09:57,880 and rape. 230 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:02,280 Just from the get like there is no like slow spot here. 231 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,600 He just immediately like started getting into crime. 232 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:10,040 Well, like you said, sometimes it's, you know, the kid grows up in a household that's 233 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:16,120 atypical and but then as soon as they're able to escape, they kind of go to college. 234 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:17,120 No, the opposite. 235 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:22,000 They go to college or they get successful careers and then it's until later, likely 236 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:27,120 when a mental illness would develop, then, you know, all this stuff in there. 237 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:28,120 Yeah. 238 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:29,120 They kill people or they whatever. 239 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:30,120 Exactly. 240 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:34,680 And I will say like, I'll talk about this a little bit more later, but there is no obvious 241 00:10:34,680 --> 00:10:35,760 mental illness here. 242 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:39,880 Like that's he was obvious from childhood or that he was diagnosed with like it's just 243 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:41,440 fucking happened. 244 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:46,240 And then you'll also notice that along this time, similarly to most people that we talk 245 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:50,520 about, he gets arrested and released a bunch of fucking times. 246 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:51,520 Yeah. 247 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,840 So it's like, yeah. 248 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:58,840 By this time after he had gotten all these arrests when he was 20, he had been released 249 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:04,440 from a stint in Mansfield prison and somehow his mother had like resurfaced and come back 250 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:06,560 into his life, like hit him up like he yo. 251 00:11:06,560 --> 00:11:07,560 What's going on? 252 00:11:07,560 --> 00:11:08,560 She needed a place to crash. 253 00:11:08,560 --> 00:11:11,040 Well, she was actually living in Miami. 254 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:14,640 And so he made his way down there to her. 255 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:20,400 He literally like hitchhiked all the way to Miami from, I think he was in Nebraska, maybe 256 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:25,960 during his time living in Miami, he worked as a cemetery worker and he was actually an 257 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,080 ambulance attendant by his own account. 258 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,400 I'm not sure this was never an ambulance attendant. 259 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:33,040 Like he wasn't like an EMT or anything. 260 00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,160 Maybe he like an attendant. 261 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:36,160 I don't know. 262 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:37,160 Cleaned him. 263 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:38,160 Yeah. 264 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:39,160 Something. 265 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:40,160 Probably clean them up. 266 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:46,040 After his time living in Miami, he actually got multiple arrests again for petty crimes 267 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:49,600 in between him going in and out of jail, court, whatever. 268 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:53,760 He actually somehow became a competitive boxer. 269 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:58,440 I mean, I mean, it kind of, okay, so he's working in a cemetery, dead people. 270 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:00,440 He's cleaning ambulances. 271 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:01,440 Blood. 272 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:02,440 Interpupil. 273 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,360 And then he just graduates to being violent with people. 274 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:06,360 Exactly. 275 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,520 Like he's a very violent person, obviously. 276 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,320 Fuck, let's do boxing. 277 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,520 I mean, this is legal, right? 278 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:14,240 This did not last long, however. 279 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:16,040 It was like a month. 280 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:17,040 Yeah. 281 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:18,040 It was like a year, I think. 282 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:19,040 Okay. 283 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:23,640 And in 1961, Samuel was arrested and sentenced to three years in prison for breaking into 284 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,080 a furniture store. 285 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:29,440 And he was released in 1964 for that arrest. 286 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:30,440 Eventually. 287 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:32,960 But he's been arrested like so many times already, right? 288 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:33,960 Yeah, exactly. 289 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:39,560 Like rape and theft and burglary and like armed robbery, like keep this fucking dude, 290 00:12:39,560 --> 00:12:40,560 right? 291 00:12:40,560 --> 00:12:41,560 Bars, like he's cleaning. 292 00:12:41,560 --> 00:12:42,560 Yeah. 293 00:12:42,560 --> 00:12:45,440 I mean, unless he's using aliases or something. 294 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,440 This is, it was the 1940s. 295 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:48,440 Yeah. 296 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:49,440 Or 50s. 297 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:50,440 Well, this is now 1970. 298 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:52,440 This is when his crime, his very violent crimes began. 299 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:54,440 So he'll be in his 30s. 300 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:55,440 Yes. 301 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:56,440 Okay. 302 00:12:56,440 --> 00:13:01,920 So in June of 1970, a 33-year-old woman by the name of Mary Brosley left her home in 303 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:06,160 Massachusetts without telling anybody where she was going and abandoning her seven-year-old 304 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:07,480 son in the process. 305 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:08,480 What? 306 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:12,920 Although her problems with alcohol were known by her family, shortly after leaving on June 307 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:17,160 12th, they reported her missing because it was super unlike her to leave for long periods 308 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,840 of time, especially without her son. 309 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:24,200 The night before her disappearance, Mary had been found by police walking down the street 310 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:25,200 late at night. 311 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,680 Apparently, she had been with two men engaging in prostitution. 312 00:13:28,680 --> 00:13:32,200 And after this was done, the two men actually pushed her out of a moving vehicle. 313 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:33,200 Oh. 314 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:34,720 Injuring her shoulder in the process. 315 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:36,880 But then she just straight up disappears the next day. 316 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:40,360 So she informed police that she would be returning to her parents' home the next day, but she 317 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:41,360 never arrived. 318 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:45,680 So the police can account for her whereabouts the night before she's missing. 319 00:13:45,680 --> 00:13:48,600 Mary was also noted to be very thin and frail. 320 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:49,600 Low and weight. 321 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:54,360 She only weighed 80 pounds at 33, and she was only 5'4", so she was little. 322 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:55,360 Little, little. 323 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:56,360 Yeah. 324 00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,640 She was known that she was frequently in and out of the hospital with cirrhosis of the 325 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:01,400 liver and treated for alcoholism. 326 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,960 She had a very big problem with alcohol. 327 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:08,120 On top of her struggles, Mary was also noted to have had a previous hip surgery, which 328 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:13,120 included her having to have metal plates and screws put in and leaving her with a permanent 329 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:14,120 limp. 330 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:15,600 She's very distinct. 331 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:17,360 Very distinct, lady. 332 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:21,720 She also had multiple permanent injuries that unfortunately happened at the hands of her 333 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:24,120 ex-husband in their previous marriage. 334 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:28,960 So notably, her life was very rough up until this point, where she goes missing. 335 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:32,480 Do they mean that you could see previous bone fractures and stuff? 336 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,520 She had scars and stuff that were... 337 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:38,880 I think she had a scar on her head somehow or something, but yeah, that's what they were 338 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:39,880 saying. 339 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:43,680 So Mary, again, I told you, she had told police she would be returning home the next day. 340 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:44,680 She did not. 341 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:46,520 Her parents had reported her missing. 342 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:50,000 However, she wasn't a missing person herself. 343 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:51,400 She was missing to her family. 344 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:55,800 So during this time, her family thinks she's missing, or she is technically missing to 345 00:14:55,800 --> 00:15:02,960 them, she continues her sex work and eventually makes her way down to Miami, Florida, about 346 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:03,960 six months later. 347 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:05,960 And her parents do live there? 348 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:06,960 They live in Massachusetts. 349 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:07,960 Oh, okay. 350 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:08,960 So she left. 351 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:10,320 She just left the home, left her son. 352 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:11,320 Oh. 353 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:12,320 Yeah. 354 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:14,120 Like, seemingly for no reason, you know? 355 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:16,760 So she somewhat just ended up in Miami? 356 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:17,760 Yes. 357 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,920 So she arrives in Miami around December, we'll say, of 1970. 358 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:26,520 Now, fast forward to New Year's Eve of 1970, the same year, Mary decided to celebrate at 359 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:32,280 a bar and while there, she was introduced to a man by the name of Samuel Little. 360 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:33,280 Hmm. 361 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:37,600 Samuel later recalled that Mary spoke about leaving her family due to struggles with her 362 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:42,000 alcoholism and he actually remembered that she had a limp. 363 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:43,000 Very distinct. 364 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:44,440 Very distinct limp. 365 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:50,280 He also stated that he remembers she was wearing a flowered sundress and a chain necklace. 366 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:52,640 Of course, he would be gawking at her neck. 367 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:56,200 The events that followed were not laid out in detail online. 368 00:15:56,200 --> 00:16:02,720 However, Samuel later noted that he remembers playing with her necklace before he strangled 369 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:03,720 her with it. 370 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:04,720 Hmm. 371 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:05,720 Pretty much. 372 00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:07,080 So this just jumped up to... 373 00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:08,720 It was just murder? 374 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:10,760 Yeah, just murder. 375 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:15,760 Due to the fact that he was a professional boxer at one point, one of the most eerie things 376 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:20,360 about Samuel, in my opinion, was that he never used weapons to kill his victims. 377 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:26,000 He would only use his hands, making it very difficult sometimes for investigators to determine 378 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:27,000 the cause of death. 379 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:28,000 Was he kind of a big guy? 380 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:29,000 He was huge. 381 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:30,480 Yeah. 382 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:34,960 He would typically punch his victims to stun them or to knock them out and then he would 383 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:38,760 proceed to strangle them with his bare hands, which is absolutely terrifying. 384 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:40,440 That is terrifying. 385 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:47,240 It wouldn't be until January 24th of 1971, so a few weeks later, that a man and his 15-year-old 386 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:52,760 son would come across Mary's body in a shallow grave of a wooded area while on a hunting 387 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:54,160 trip. 388 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:55,360 Content warning. 389 00:16:55,360 --> 00:17:00,120 The body had decomposed to a state of being unrecognizable, so it was unimmediately known 390 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:03,240 what it was when the man and his son had approached. 391 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:07,920 The fact that her body was placed with one leg sticking out of the shallow grave led 392 00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:12,760 investigators to believe that someone else was involved, and this was indeed a homicide. 393 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:18,240 It was noted that when she was found, her mesh underwear were actually put back on her with 394 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:23,200 both legs in one hole, so like forcefully put on her. 395 00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:25,120 It wasn't something that was naturally occurring. 396 00:17:25,120 --> 00:17:26,120 Yes. 397 00:17:26,120 --> 00:17:27,120 Something that was very, yeah. 398 00:17:27,120 --> 00:17:31,680 It was also noted by investigators that Mary's blood alcohol content in her brain at the 399 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:40,360 time she was found was anywhere from.29 to.37, which is extremely high, and they did mention 400 00:17:40,360 --> 00:17:45,120 that if it was.37, it would have been enough to kill her, so it actually took them a little 401 00:17:45,120 --> 00:17:48,160 bit longer to determine that it was a homicide. 402 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:52,320 I just feel like after 24 days, how could there be that much alcohol in the brain? 403 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:53,320 Exactly. 404 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:58,400 She was, I don't know, maybe she did have a long history of alcoholism. 405 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:02,120 Maybe her brain was pickled, if you will, for lack of a better phrase. 406 00:18:02,120 --> 00:18:03,120 Yeah, her brain. 407 00:18:03,120 --> 00:18:09,560 Well, yeah, if she's that much of an alcoholic, something that would normally kill someone, 408 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:11,960 probably likely wouldn't kill her. 409 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,560 She was used to getting that drunk. 410 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:19,400 When being interviewed later about this murder, Samuel told Miami-Dade homicide detective David 411 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:23,000 Denmark that Mary was the first woman that he killed. 412 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:27,040 He recalled that she was wearing a colorful sundress and remarked that she wore a chain 413 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:28,040 necklace. 414 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:32,960 I say, many years later, and you'll find out, I don't want to give it away, but you'll 415 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:35,920 find out how long this was. 416 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:40,480 Denmark was noted as saying about the murder, quote, we believe he choked her to death. 417 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:45,880 He had said he only partially buried her because the ground floor was too hard and he would 418 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:51,600 never bury someone in Florida again because the ground was too hard, meaning he intended 419 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,280 to bury more people. 420 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:59,520 Little went on to kill many victims, but for time's sake, we're not going to speak about 421 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:03,040 each one individually and also because some of them have never been confirmed to be his 422 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:06,400 or their identities were never confirmed. 423 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:10,440 Most of the, I would say probably 50% of the deaths that he caused were chalked up to natural 424 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:13,720 causes when they were found because there was no murder weapon. 425 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:17,080 And seemingly, I mean, it was a long time after they were found. 426 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:24,880 I will say, however, the suggested amount of people that he killed is 93. 427 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:25,880 What? 428 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:28,760 So, we're going to get in. 429 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:29,760 That's a lot. 430 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:34,600 I wanted to lay out his first murder because obviously that's the turning point. 431 00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:40,800 We're going to kind of go through his life up until when he gets caught. 432 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:44,320 But during that time, he kills dozens of people. 433 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:47,840 I'll mention some along the way that I could find info on. 434 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:53,560 And just as a overall content warning, before we move on, I'm going to be mentioning a number 435 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:57,960 of different people along the way that unfortunately Samuel killed. 436 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:02,240 The MO is the same for each person, so it's not Tutu graphic and if it is graphic, I will 437 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:07,080 repeat content warning, but I just wanted to put a content warning on the rest of this. 438 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:13,880 So by 1975, this is five years later, Samuel had been arrested 26 times in 11 different 439 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:20,840 states for crimes including theft, assault, attempted rape, fraud, and attacks on government 440 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:21,840 officials. 441 00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:22,840 On government officials? 442 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:23,840 Yeah. 443 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,600 I don't know what that meant. 444 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:27,600 Was that an act? 445 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,440 Did he run into somebody and then realize they were a government official or do you think 446 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:31,960 he was politically driven? 447 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,480 He was probably, no, I don't think he was politically driven at all. 448 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:36,160 I don't think he gave a shit about that. 449 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:37,640 Well, I mean, there's shit going on. 450 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:39,480 I just feel like that's so specific. 451 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:40,480 Yeah. 452 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:45,760 In total, he only served 10 years time for these various crimes. 453 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,280 And he was arrested 26 times? 454 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:49,280 Yes, in 11 different states. 455 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:50,280 In 11 different states. 456 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:51,280 Total. 457 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:54,080 Oh no, this is like a theme. 458 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,280 He like gets off scot-free for like some shit. 459 00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:57,280 Why? 460 00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:59,720 This is a ridiculous, that's ridiculous. 461 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:06,080 It's reported that between 1970 and 1982, he was responsible for the deaths of at least 462 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:11,960 two dozen women, one of them being Annie Lee Stewart, a 33 year old mother of three, on 463 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:15,800 October 11th, 1981. 464 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:19,240 Samuel strangled the mom to death and then proceeded to drive her body to Grove City 465 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:22,080 in Ohio to dump it in the woods. 466 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:25,760 It was noted that it was raining that day and maybe that's why he decided on the woods 467 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:27,800 because it was raining. 468 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:35,560 In 1982, Samuel was arrested in Pasigoula, Mississippi and charged with the murder of 469 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:39,400 22 year old Melinda Rose LePri. 470 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:43,120 She had gone missing in September of that same year after running away from home with 471 00:21:43,120 --> 00:21:44,440 her boyfriend. 472 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:46,800 He was actually pimping her out for money. 473 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:47,800 The boyfriend? 474 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:49,880 The harsh way to say that, but yeah, he was. 475 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:54,080 Melinda was known to dabble in cocaine and weed and Samuel usually chose his victims 476 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:59,720 based on their being under the influence and he thought that these people, because they 477 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:03,960 were involved in sex work, would not be looked for afterwards, which is really unfortunate. 478 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:04,960 Which is awful. 479 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:09,400 I think that's just the shittiest justification you can come up with. 480 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:10,400 No, literally. 481 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:19,400 During his trial, a grand jury decided not to indict him for her murder based on lack 482 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:23,040 of sufficient evidence. 483 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:24,040 What was the evidence? 484 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:25,040 I didn't say. 485 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:26,760 Well, I mean, I guess there's a lack of. 486 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:28,080 Yeah, it's a lack thereof. 487 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:29,080 There wasn't any. 488 00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:30,080 There wasn't any. 489 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:31,480 Did he say that he did it? 490 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:32,840 No, of course he didn't. 491 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:34,320 He pled not guilty. 492 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:35,480 He did it. 493 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:36,480 He did it. 494 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:38,080 He'll admit later that he did it. 495 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,760 Oh my gosh, why? 496 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:45,480 Melinda's brother would later recall, quote, Mindy came from a loving family, but she 497 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:49,280 just had some really unfortunate turns in her life with her mother dying when she was 498 00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:50,280 just seven. 499 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:52,760 She was brilliant and a musical genius. 500 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:54,800 She taught herself any instrument she wanted. 501 00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:55,800 Which is really sweet. 502 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,040 I just had to put that in there. 503 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:02,560 Although Samuel did not get charged for this murder, however, while under investigation 504 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:08,800 for this crime, he was actually extradited to Florida and tried for the murder of 26-year-old 505 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:17,120 Patricia Ann Mount, who his body was found on September 12, 1982. 506 00:23:17,120 --> 00:23:24,360 The night before she went missing, witnesses saw her and Samuel dancing at a bar together 507 00:23:24,360 --> 00:23:28,200 before they drove off together in his station wagon. 508 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:33,280 Patricia was found dead and unclothed in a hayfield the following morning. 509 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:42,560 During this trial, during this trial, prosecution witnesses identified Samuel as the person who 510 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:49,440 spent time with Patricia on the night before her disappearance, however, due to, quote, 511 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:55,520 mistrust of witness testimonies, because the witnesses were sex workers, the jury did not 512 00:23:55,520 --> 00:24:01,480 trust their statements, and Samuel was acquitted in January of 1984. 513 00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:05,560 I have all the body chills. 514 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:08,360 How mad for us to show that. 515 00:24:08,360 --> 00:24:09,880 I am mad. 516 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:12,640 That is, how can one per- 517 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:13,640 You're untrustworthy. 518 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:15,280 He's got a record. 519 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:17,160 He's got a long record. 520 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:18,160 Violent record, if anything. 521 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:22,520 And he's already been to trial for another murder, even though he was acquitted. 522 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:24,520 I guess they can't really talk about that either. 523 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:29,680 But the system has to be, like, clearly this guy is up to something. 524 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:32,200 And the fuck this jury that's like, oh, you're a sex worker. 525 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:33,200 I don't fucking trust you. 526 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:34,200 That's ridiculous. 527 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:37,720 So he's now gotten off on two murder charges. 528 00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:39,760 And I'm sure he feels invincible at this point. 529 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:40,760 Of course. 530 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:44,120 I know. 531 00:24:44,120 --> 00:24:45,120 We have a lot more to go. 532 00:24:45,120 --> 00:24:46,120 Great. 533 00:24:46,120 --> 00:24:47,120 Great. 534 00:24:47,120 --> 00:24:48,120 I'm so excited. 535 00:24:48,120 --> 00:24:49,120 I'm pissed off. 536 00:24:49,120 --> 00:24:50,120 That's great. 537 00:24:50,120 --> 00:24:55,840 After his release in 1984, Samuel wasted no time finding another victim, this time in 538 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:57,600 Ohio. 539 00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:02,200 Samuel went to a bar on the east side where he met 21-year-old Mary Jo Payton in July 540 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,080 of 1984. 541 00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:09,280 The two hit it off and eventually left together when Samuel drove her to an abandoned factory 542 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:11,440 and proceeded to strangle her to death. 543 00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:16,240 And he actually threw her body down a stairwell afterwards, which is fucked up. 544 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:20,360 After this, Samuel moved close by San Diego, California. 545 00:25:20,360 --> 00:25:27,560 And on September 27th of 1984, while prowling for a new victim, Samuel came across 22-year-old 546 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:31,440 Laurie Barrows, who was working as a sex worker. 547 00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:34,880 Samuel pulled up in a car, grabbed her, and threw her inside. 548 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:38,800 He then drove up a steep gravel road and pulled over. 549 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:40,920 This is the content warning. 550 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:45,520 Samuel then threw Laurie into the back seat, tied her hands behind her back, and began 551 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:46,960 strangling her. 552 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:49,920 Which is, I'm sorry, that's scarier, because you can't move. 553 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:53,560 You literally can't do anything. 554 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:58,760 Laurie began to fight as hard as she could, which only made Samuel choker harder. 555 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:02,920 During this time, Laurie went in and out of consciousness multiple times, and when she 556 00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:06,120 came to the last time, this is gross. 557 00:26:06,120 --> 00:26:12,480 Samuel asked her to swallow, stating, quote, I like it when you swallow. 558 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:14,520 Gross. 559 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:20,240 After strangling her for quite some time, Samuel tossed Laurie out of the car and drove off. 560 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:22,840 How do we know all this, you ask? 561 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:27,960 Laurie laid there completely still and played dead for about 30 minutes before getting up. 562 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:28,960 Badass, bitch alert. 563 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,280 Terrified that he might be close by. 564 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:34,840 She eventually made her way to a phone booth to call for help. 565 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,080 And she was treated and survived the attack. 566 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:38,080 Bad bitch alert. 567 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:39,080 Bad bitch alert. 568 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:40,080 Bad bitch alert. 569 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:43,800 A friend of hers actually encouraged and pretty much convinced her to file a police report 570 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:44,800 because she was terrified. 571 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:45,800 She didn't want to? 572 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:48,040 Well, she was scared. 573 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:52,840 And she did, and she gave a description of his car and the location of where this happened. 574 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:56,160 Surely he's tried for this one. 575 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:57,160 Is he? 576 00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:58,320 Police Department trainee. 577 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,280 Oh, god. 578 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:04,360 Police Department trainee Wayne Speese and his partner ran up on the report and decided 579 00:27:04,360 --> 00:27:05,880 to stake out the crime scene. 580 00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:06,880 They can't arrest him. 581 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:08,160 They just have her word. 582 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,600 They don't really have anything to arrest him for this point. 583 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:11,600 She's a victim. 584 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:12,600 Yeah. 585 00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:13,600 I don't understand that. 586 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:14,880 Why is this about, is this in LA? 587 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:15,880 Where are they? 588 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:16,880 This is in San Diego. 589 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:17,880 Okay. 590 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:18,880 Yep. 591 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:19,880 Yep. 592 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:25,040 A month after the incident on October 25th, 1984, the two same police officers were on 593 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:26,640 the scene of the crime. 594 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:32,480 And sure enough, Samuel pulled up in his car with yet another woman, Tanya Jackson. 595 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:36,360 Just came upon him attacking her in the exact same way. 596 00:27:36,360 --> 00:27:41,120 He was quickly taken into custody and authorities collected a DNA sample, whoop, whoop, which 597 00:27:41,120 --> 00:27:43,320 was later uploaded to the National Database. 598 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:44,320 Awesome. 599 00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:46,560 Tanya survived her attack as well. 600 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:47,560 And Samuel was- 601 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:48,560 I would hope so. 602 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:50,200 I would hope the police didn't stand by until she died. 603 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:51,200 Did you watch her? 604 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:52,560 Well, he's really not murdering her. 605 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:54,240 He's just strangling her. 606 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:55,240 Jesus. 607 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:56,520 Now a murder has been committed. 608 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:57,520 Now we can take him in. 609 00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:58,520 Now we can take over. 610 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:02,960 Samuel was charged with attempted murder, rape, assault with intent to cause great bodily 611 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:06,960 injury and other related sexual charges. 612 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:12,240 Both women testified against Samuel in a joint trial in the mid-1980s. 613 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:13,240 Why do you look like that? 614 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:14,240 Don't look like that. 615 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,840 Why do I need to be pissed? 616 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:18,520 Why do I need to be so mad? 617 00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:26,360 During this trial, Samuel was somehow offered a plea deal and he was given four fucking 618 00:28:26,360 --> 00:28:31,040 years in prison for assault and false imprisonment. 619 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:34,960 Why not attempted murder was a plea deal? 620 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:40,720 If this isn't bad enough, he was fucking released in 1987 on good behavior after only 621 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:43,000 two and a half years. 622 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:48,760 He only served two and a half years for the attempted murder of two women. 623 00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:51,680 I don't want to live on this planet anymore. 624 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:57,400 When his release in February of 1987, Samuel moved to LA and proceeded to murder at least 625 00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:58,400 10 more women. 626 00:28:58,400 --> 00:28:59,400 You know what? 627 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:00,400 That's just gonna happen now. 628 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:01,560 You want to commit murders? 629 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:02,560 You moved to LA. 630 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:03,560 Literally in the 70s. 631 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:04,560 In the 70s. 632 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:05,560 That's what you did. 633 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:10,160 If you were a serial murderer, you lived in LA at least one or two times throughout 634 00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:11,160 your career. 635 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:18,840 Two and a half fucking years for the attempted murder of two women and rape and assault and 636 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:19,840 kidnapping. 637 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:25,480 After he was already been convicted, tried for two other murders. 638 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:27,480 Not convicted, but tried for one. 639 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:30,640 So they now know that this guy, like, is absolutely baffling. 640 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:32,240 They don't care. 641 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:34,440 It's just sex workers. 642 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:35,520 That's why they don't care. 643 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:37,880 Because it's only sex workers. 644 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:44,520 On July 13th, 1987, this is literally like three months after he fucking got out, LA 645 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:49,560 police officer Daryl Lee and his partner responded to a call about a dead body lying in an alleyway 646 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:52,840 behind a residence on East 27th Street. 647 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:53,840 Content warning. 648 00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:55,800 Could you imagine being those people? 649 00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:56,800 No, literally. 650 00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:58,880 Just waking up and looking out your back door and just... 651 00:29:58,880 --> 00:29:59,880 She's a fucking body. 652 00:29:59,880 --> 00:30:00,880 An alley. 653 00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:01,880 We have an alley. 654 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:02,880 Horrifying. 655 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:06,280 That's full of horror. 656 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:07,280 Content warning. 657 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:12,560 Upon arriving at the scene, police came across 41-year-old Carol Eileen Elford. 658 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:16,320 She was naked from the waist down with her shirt pulled up over her bra. 659 00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:19,520 She was wearing only one sock and no shoes. 660 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:24,000 The officers also noticed drag marks in the dirt near the woman's feet, suggesting to 661 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:27,400 them that she had been killed elsewhere and dragged to this location. 662 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:32,000 Carol's cause of death was determined to be asphyxia as a result of manual strangulation. 663 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:37,720 She had sustained multiple bruises near her jawline, hemorrhaging in and around her eyes, 664 00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:42,240 and scratches and abrasions to her neck, some of which were caused by fingernails. 665 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:43,240 Like ow. 666 00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:45,160 Well, that's her trying to... 667 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:46,160 Yeah. 668 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:47,160 That's awful. 669 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,000 That's her... like her own defense wounds. 670 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:52,800 There was also hemorrhaging beneath her scalp, which is consistent with a blow to the head 671 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:54,960 because he punched her, of course. 672 00:30:54,960 --> 00:31:00,040 In August of 1989, Samuel strangled one Audrey Nelson Everett to death and left her in a 673 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:01,320 garage. 674 00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:07,000 On September 3rd, 1989, Guadalupe Apodaca was also strangled to death by Samuel and 675 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,400 he left her in a dumpster. 676 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:10,720 He's just like boom, boom, boom. 677 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:11,720 Yeah, just willy... 678 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:15,880 Well, I mean, again, if you've been tried for murder three times, you've gotten away 679 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:16,880 with it. 680 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:17,880 Yeah. 681 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:22,240 There were some women found during the years of 1989 and 1990 that were confirmed victims 682 00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:23,240 of Samuel's. 683 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:27,520 However, they are all listed as Jane Doe's due to their names being unknown. 684 00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:28,520 I'm sorry, so... 685 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:29,520 I'm sorry. 686 00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:30,520 Oh, I'm sorry. 687 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:32,840 This is later on that they became listed as victims. 688 00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:35,880 Uh, his first victim is Wynn, 1970? 689 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:36,880 Yeah. 690 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:37,880 And we are in 1990? 691 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:38,880 Yep. 692 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:39,880 1990. 693 00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:40,880 It's been 20 years. 694 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:41,880 It's been 20 years. 695 00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:42,880 Okay. 696 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:43,880 Just... just make it sure. 697 00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:44,880 Just make it sure. 698 00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:45,880 Okay. 699 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:48,880 So, they were in different states as Samuel began traveling again. 700 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:55,160 In 1991, Samuel was driving around in Cleveland, Ohio, once again, and came across a 32-year-old 701 00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:58,600 woman on the side of the road by the name of Rose Evans. 702 00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:03,200 He offered her a ride and when she accepted, he drove her to an abandoned property, strangled 703 00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:07,600 her, and then dumped her body in a vacant lot and covered her with tires. 704 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:12,520 After this murder, there is actually a gap in the timeline for a few years. 705 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:15,600 So from like 91 to 94. 706 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:22,000 On January 1st, 1994, 38-year-old Denise Brothers was reported missing. 707 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:28,120 Her body ended up being found a month later in Odessa, Texas, the victim of a strangulation. 708 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:29,120 I know. 709 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:30,120 This is a lot. 710 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:31,120 I'm sorry. 711 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:32,120 It's okay. 712 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:33,120 I mean, it's not okay. 713 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:41,160 I'm just saying that it's just incredible that he doesn't... like nobody gives a shit. 714 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:47,240 Between 1995 and 2005, Samuel continued to kill. 715 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:48,240 2005. 716 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:50,480 But there is not much known about these crimes. 717 00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:56,840 There are multiple victims that are suspected victims of Samuel's from 1970 to 1997, including 718 00:32:56,840 --> 00:33:00,720 40 women listed under unnamed. 719 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:05,800 Other women mentioned that are potential victims of his due to his confessions later on. 720 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:10,040 Location searches and sketches drawn by Samuel himself are listed below. 721

754 00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:53,640 Those are names that he gave police, the years that he killed them, and descriptions of them. 755 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:57,320 Because he remembers all this shit. 756 00:33:57,320 --> 00:33:58,320 That is... 757 00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:00,240 I mean, it took me like how long to read that out. 758 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:01,240 Yeah. 759 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:04,460 And that's like a fraction of what he said that he killed. 760 00:34:04,460 --> 00:34:10,980 Although Samuel continued to kill until 2005, his last victim being one Nancy Stevens that 761 00:34:10,980 --> 00:34:15,660 was found on the side of the road in Mississippi, there's not anything documented on him until 762 00:34:15,660 --> 00:34:21,600 2012, showing that somehow he decided to lay low for many years during this time, which 763 00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:25,620 is very odd because he was such a compulsive killer for like 40 fucking years. 764 00:34:25,620 --> 00:34:26,620 Right. 765 00:34:26,620 --> 00:34:28,780 I mean, who knows who's to say that he didn't kill during this time. 766 00:34:28,780 --> 00:34:30,140 Well, how old would he have been then? 767 00:34:30,140 --> 00:34:32,140 Because he was born in 1940. 768 00:34:32,140 --> 00:34:33,140 Mm-hmm. 769 00:34:33,140 --> 00:34:34,140 In late 60s. 770 00:34:34,140 --> 00:34:35,140 Late 60s. 771 00:34:35,140 --> 00:34:36,140 Yeah. 772 00:34:36,140 --> 00:34:42,500 On September 5th, 2012, Samuel was arrested at a homeless shelter in Louisville, Kentucky 773 00:34:42,500 --> 00:34:45,220 with suspicions of a drug charge. 774 00:34:45,220 --> 00:34:46,900 A drug charge. 775 00:34:46,900 --> 00:34:51,020 Not for the fucking 90 people that he murdered, but a drug charge. 776 00:34:51,020 --> 00:34:52,740 We suspect he has cocaine. 777 00:34:52,740 --> 00:34:56,500 Of course, at this time, DNA testing had come a long way, and since they had had his 778 00:34:56,500 --> 00:35:02,580 DNA stored in the database from 1987, he was immediately linked to the murders of Carol 779 00:35:02,580 --> 00:35:06,020 Guadalupe and Audrey from 1987. 780 00:35:06,020 --> 00:35:08,940 Samuel was extradited to California to face these three murder charges. 781 00:35:08,940 --> 00:35:11,180 Well, you know it's not going to get done in California, right? 782 00:35:11,180 --> 00:35:12,180 No, of course not. 783 00:35:12,180 --> 00:35:14,180 Actually, it did. 784 00:35:14,180 --> 00:35:20,700 On January 7th, 2013, Samuel was charged for all three murders from 1987. 785 00:35:20,700 --> 00:35:25,220 A few months later, police stated that Samuel was being investigated for involvement in 786 00:35:25,220 --> 00:35:31,660 three dozen murder cases from 70 to 90 due to his DNA being linked. 787 00:35:31,660 --> 00:35:37,580 Because of this, Melinda LePrie, the one that he got tried for and not, he got acquitted, 788 00:35:37,580 --> 00:35:38,580 her case was reopened. 789 00:35:38,580 --> 00:35:42,380 I'm not sure why the other one wasn't, but hers was. 790 00:35:42,380 --> 00:35:49,100 In total, Samuel was tested for involvement in 93 murders of women committed in 19 different 791 00:35:49,100 --> 00:35:51,380 US states. 792 00:35:51,380 --> 00:35:56,140 With more physical evidence against him, Samuel was finally charged for all three murders 793 00:35:56,140 --> 00:35:58,140 in September 25th, 2014. 794 00:35:58,140 --> 00:35:59,140 2014. 795 00:35:59,140 --> 00:36:05,780 The women who had survived the prior attacks by him all testified against him, and he was 796 00:36:05,780 --> 00:36:10,140 sentenced to three consecutive life sentences without possibility of parole. 797 00:36:10,140 --> 00:36:12,940 That is incredible, right? 798 00:36:12,940 --> 00:36:19,780 For four years, Samuel maintained his innocence and did not speak to anybody about the murders. 799 00:36:19,780 --> 00:36:20,780 Maintained his innocence. 800 00:36:20,780 --> 00:36:22,020 Fuck him. 801 00:36:22,020 --> 00:36:29,100 All of a sudden, it seems, in 2018, in 2018, still alive, Samuel decided that he was going 802 00:36:29,100 --> 00:36:32,500 to confess every detail of his crimes. 803 00:36:32,500 --> 00:36:35,820 Over the years, many detectives had tried to get a confession out of him, but it was 804 00:36:35,820 --> 00:36:40,100 not until James or Jimmy Holland came along that they heard anything. 805 00:36:40,100 --> 00:36:41,620 Who's that? 806 00:36:41,620 --> 00:36:46,900 Jimmy was a Texas Ranger, hell yeah, who came across the cold case of Denise Brothers, the 807 00:36:46,900 --> 00:36:49,580 one from Odessa, Texas in 94. 808 00:36:49,580 --> 00:36:54,380 Jimmy was known around the precinct as a quote, serial killer whisperer of sorts, so it made 809 00:36:54,380 --> 00:36:57,540 sense that he would go and question Samuel. 810 00:36:57,540 --> 00:37:01,940 With the help of the FBI's violent criminal apprehension program, Jimmy was able to talk 811 00:37:01,940 --> 00:37:06,420 to Samuel about various cases that took place all over the country. 812 00:37:06,420 --> 00:37:10,020 Samuel did not give up a confession right away, and Jimmy actually eased into talking 813 00:37:10,020 --> 00:37:14,860 to him, slowly talking about his crimes, and making sure to be super delicate when talking 814 00:37:14,860 --> 00:37:17,180 about the violence of the crimes. 815 00:37:17,180 --> 00:37:21,580 The first interrogation lasted for two and a half hours, and in that time, Samuel actually 816 00:37:21,580 --> 00:37:23,980 began to like Jimmy. 817 00:37:23,980 --> 00:37:28,580 They actually bonded over like spending time in Texas, what kind of sodas they liked, and 818 00:37:28,580 --> 00:37:33,060 nicknames that they were given as children by their parents, which is really weird. 819 00:37:33,060 --> 00:37:36,660 Not weird, but like, you know, not something you'd think of. 820 00:37:36,660 --> 00:37:39,860 Jimmy listened to Samuel as he vented about the different police departments he had come 821 00:37:39,860 --> 00:37:40,860 across. 822 00:37:40,860 --> 00:37:43,740 Oh my god, the police are so bad, even though I fucking murdered 90 people. 823 00:37:43,740 --> 00:37:45,100 Well that's why he's saying that they're bad. 824 00:37:45,100 --> 00:37:49,620 Well I'm just saying, like clearly they're dummies. 825 00:37:49,620 --> 00:37:53,580 Samuel slowly began to give up details about certain crimes he had committed. 826 00:37:53,580 --> 00:37:58,180 He was noted as saying to Jimmy about his murders, quote, it was like drugs, I came 827 00:37:58,180 --> 00:37:59,180 to like it. 828 00:37:59,180 --> 00:38:04,780 By the time the interview was over, Samuel told Jimmy that he quote, stopped counting 829 00:38:04,780 --> 00:38:09,980 the amount of victims he had killed at 84. 830 00:38:09,980 --> 00:38:14,500 He was counting, and he got to 84, and then he lost count. 831 00:38:14,500 --> 00:38:17,340 Like that's so sick. 832 00:38:17,340 --> 00:38:22,260 I don't know, I feel like if that's all you did was kill people, it's literally your life. 833 00:38:22,260 --> 00:38:25,060 You would know. 834 00:38:25,060 --> 00:38:29,420 The next day, Jimmy went back over for another four hour interrogation. 835 00:38:29,420 --> 00:38:33,380 These interrogations continued over the next few months, even taking place in different 836 00:38:33,380 --> 00:38:36,820 states as Samuel was being like, tried for various victims. 837 00:38:36,820 --> 00:38:37,820 Whoa. 838 00:38:37,820 --> 00:38:41,180 And Jimmy just like went with him to keep talking to him. 839 00:38:41,180 --> 00:38:46,060 During these interviews, Samuel opened up about the specific details of each crime. 840 00:38:46,060 --> 00:38:49,780 While he couldn't remember everything, he remembered a remarkable amount of detail of 841 00:38:49,780 --> 00:38:55,580 each woman, what they were wearing, where he met them, their stories, things like that. 842 00:38:55,580 --> 00:39:01,460 He even took it upon himself to draw sketches of women and ended up drawing over 20 sketches 843 00:39:01,460 --> 00:39:05,060 in total that looked like the women that he had killed. 844 00:39:05,060 --> 00:39:12,740 He was like, oh, I remember in 75, here she is, and he gave like literally, yeah, to help, 845 00:39:12,740 --> 00:39:15,140 I guess help identify them. 846 00:39:15,140 --> 00:39:18,860 Although there are dozens of murders that are still cold cases, Samuel's confessions helped 847 00:39:18,860 --> 00:39:23,700 close multiple different open cases over the years, with family members of some victims 848 00:39:23,700 --> 00:39:26,900 being contacted 50 years later. 849 00:39:26,900 --> 00:39:27,900 Could you imagine? 850 00:39:27,900 --> 00:39:28,900 Like 50 years ago. 851 00:39:28,900 --> 00:39:30,380 Like you never know what happened to grandma. 852 00:39:30,380 --> 00:39:33,980 And then you find out 50 years later. 853 00:39:33,980 --> 00:39:38,700 When asked why he seemed to suddenly want to confess, Samuel stated, quote, probably 854 00:39:38,700 --> 00:39:44,300 being numerous people who are been convicted and sent to the penitentiary on my behalf, 855 00:39:44,300 --> 00:39:49,820 I say if I can help get somebody out of jail, you know, God might smile a little bit more 856 00:39:49,820 --> 00:39:50,820 on me. 857 00:39:50,820 --> 00:39:53,820 So he doesn't give a shit about the victims family or the victims. 858 00:39:53,820 --> 00:39:57,620 He's like, oh, that guy might be in jail for the crime I committed. 859 00:39:57,620 --> 00:40:00,460 He needs to be released. 860 00:40:00,460 --> 00:40:04,100 He was also noted as saying, quote, I don't think there was another person who did what 861 00:40:04,100 --> 00:40:05,180 I like to do. 862 00:40:05,180 --> 00:40:08,140 I think I'm the only one in the world and that's not an honor. 863 00:40:08,140 --> 00:40:10,420 That's a curse. 864 00:40:10,420 --> 00:40:14,820 Being in late age at the time of his conviction, Samuel spent many of his later years in poor 865 00:40:14,820 --> 00:40:19,460 health in a wheelchair with diabetes and a heart condition. 866 00:40:19,460 --> 00:40:20,460 Good. 867 00:40:20,460 --> 00:40:27,820 It was not until the early hours of December 30th, 2020 that Samuel passed away from seemingly 868 00:40:27,820 --> 00:40:34,740 natural causes at the age of 80 in the California State Prison one day before the 50th anniversary 869 00:40:34,740 --> 00:40:36,780 of his first murder. 870 00:40:36,780 --> 00:40:40,120 That's serendipitous. 871 00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:44,500 Of all of the murders that were confessed by Samuel, only 60 were confirmed at the time 872 00:40:44,500 --> 00:40:46,180 of his death. 873 00:40:46,180 --> 00:40:50,980 Psychiatrists have named him a sexual serial killer, which I didn't really get a lot of 874 00:40:50,980 --> 00:40:54,340 information on that, but that's a story. 875 00:40:54,340 --> 00:40:55,340 Yeah. 876 00:40:55,340 --> 00:40:57,340 Yeah, he never once talked about stroking. 877 00:40:57,340 --> 00:41:00,220 Yeah, no, I don't want to say choking stroke. 878 00:41:00,220 --> 00:41:01,220 That's fucking gross. 879 00:41:01,220 --> 00:41:03,540 I'm not going to give him that. 880 00:41:03,540 --> 00:41:12,580 Anyways, if I had details on every single person that he killed, we would be here all 881 00:41:12,580 --> 00:41:13,580 day. 882 00:41:13,580 --> 00:41:14,580 We would be here for hours. 883 00:41:14,580 --> 00:41:16,060 Yeah, an entire day probably. 884 00:41:16,060 --> 00:41:17,060 Literally. 885 00:41:17,060 --> 00:41:20,940 That is just so baffling how someone can just... 886 00:41:20,940 --> 00:41:23,420 It was literally boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. 887 00:41:23,420 --> 00:41:25,860 How do you not get fucking caught? 888 00:41:25,860 --> 00:41:32,020 Not only are you getting off on these charges, but he was only tried for two actual murders 889 00:41:32,020 --> 00:41:36,060 between the time that he started killing and then 2012. 890 00:41:36,060 --> 00:41:41,540 If he committed 93 times that the police fucked up. 891 00:41:41,540 --> 00:41:42,540 Right. 892 00:41:42,540 --> 00:41:51,620 Well, unfortunately, in sex work, when these people, I will say people because it's not 893 00:41:51,620 --> 00:41:57,140 gender specific, but sex workers, I think they don't really usually have a lot of contact 894 00:41:57,140 --> 00:41:59,220 with their family if they're living on the streets. 895 00:41:59,220 --> 00:42:05,900 They honestly usually aren't reported missing for some days, but sometimes a week, sometimes 896 00:42:05,900 --> 00:42:12,700 a month from a family member or a friend because they are also living a transient lifestyle. 897 00:42:12,700 --> 00:42:17,980 They're also going from one side of the city to the other or another city or hitchhiking, 898 00:42:17,980 --> 00:42:21,780 especially hitchhiking in the 70s, 60s and 70s. 899 00:42:21,780 --> 00:42:23,900 That was a big thing. 900 00:42:23,900 --> 00:42:27,540 I think it's a little bit of that that people weren't reported missing. 901 00:42:27,540 --> 00:42:31,580 I wonder how many of these women were actually ever reported missing. 902 00:42:31,580 --> 00:42:34,940 Well, that's what I'm saying, though, but these bodies had to have been found. 903 00:42:34,940 --> 00:42:36,980 He put them in just random places. 904 00:42:36,980 --> 00:42:38,980 It's not like he had a really great method of hiding. 905 00:42:38,980 --> 00:42:42,020 It also seems like he's also a transient person. 906 00:42:42,020 --> 00:42:44,300 He's also moving around a lot, too. 907 00:42:44,300 --> 00:42:50,460 So I mean, some of the hardest cases ever are serial killers that are truck drivers 908 00:42:50,460 --> 00:42:53,380 because they're constantly going across state lines all the time. 909 00:42:53,380 --> 00:42:57,500 Well, I guess when you think about it, too, and I'm not trying to be ugly at all, but 910 00:42:57,500 --> 00:42:59,060 there's no murder weapon. 911 00:42:59,060 --> 00:43:05,020 Seemingly, someone was choked or strangled that could easily have been an angry client 912 00:43:05,020 --> 00:43:06,020 or something. 913 00:43:06,020 --> 00:43:09,980 It doesn't necessarily mean it's the same guy every time. 914 00:43:09,980 --> 00:43:12,100 That's really awful. 915 00:43:12,100 --> 00:43:13,100 And that's what they say. 916 00:43:13,100 --> 00:43:16,500 He's potentially the most, like, the deadliest serial killer in America. 917 00:43:16,500 --> 00:43:20,620 His numbers make Ted Bundy and Jeffrey Dahmer look like fucking nuts. 918 00:43:20,620 --> 00:43:21,620 Like jokes. 919 00:43:21,620 --> 00:43:22,620 Like infants. 920 00:43:22,620 --> 00:43:23,620 Seriously. 921 00:43:23,620 --> 00:43:26,020 They literally says that his number is dwarf there, is what it said. 922 00:43:26,020 --> 00:43:27,860 There's more information. 923 00:43:27,860 --> 00:43:31,900 I didn't include everything that I found, again, for time's sake. 924 00:43:31,900 --> 00:43:37,460 But there was also another journalist or reporter of some sort, a woman that actually, I read 925 00:43:37,460 --> 00:43:40,500 that visited him in jail as well. 926 00:43:40,500 --> 00:43:42,340 And they actually bonded. 927 00:43:42,340 --> 00:43:44,740 And she had asked him at one point, like... 928 00:43:44,740 --> 00:43:45,740 Was it Baba? 929 00:43:45,740 --> 00:43:46,740 Baba Waltas? 930 00:43:46,740 --> 00:43:49,100 It was just some random lady. 931 00:43:49,100 --> 00:43:52,660 But she asked him at one point, like, oh, would I be one of your victims? 932 00:43:52,660 --> 00:43:54,740 Or somehow it came up, like, I'm a woman. 933 00:43:54,740 --> 00:43:57,860 And he's like, oh, no, I wouldn't kill you. 934 00:43:57,860 --> 00:44:00,660 I wouldn't kill someone that's like... 935 00:44:00,660 --> 00:44:01,660 Famous. 936 00:44:01,660 --> 00:44:03,740 You're elevated, you know, in there. 937 00:44:03,740 --> 00:44:04,740 So it's like... 938 00:44:04,740 --> 00:44:05,740 He didn't feel any remorse for this man. 939 00:44:05,740 --> 00:44:06,740 He definitely thought about it. 940 00:44:06,740 --> 00:44:07,740 Oh, no, he didn't. 941 00:44:07,740 --> 00:44:10,740 But then I can't think of, like, what would have happened to me. 942 00:44:10,740 --> 00:44:12,580 That sounds like a case of nature to me. 943 00:44:12,580 --> 00:44:14,060 Or, I mean, nurture as well. 944 00:44:14,060 --> 00:44:17,780 But it's not like he was in foster care his whole life. 945 00:44:17,780 --> 00:44:20,020 His mom did leave, but then he went with his grandparents. 946 00:44:20,020 --> 00:44:22,100 His mother was also a sex worker, too. 947 00:44:22,100 --> 00:44:23,220 You said that. 948 00:44:23,220 --> 00:44:24,220 That's actually really true. 949 00:44:24,220 --> 00:44:25,220 I wouldn't even think about that. 950 00:44:25,220 --> 00:44:26,900 And she traveled around a lot, too. 951 00:44:26,900 --> 00:44:29,940 So maybe he, like, had hatred for his mom and he, like, took it out. 952 00:44:29,940 --> 00:44:30,940 Probably. 953 00:44:30,940 --> 00:44:31,940 He's a woman. 954 00:44:31,940 --> 00:44:32,940 Oh, that's so awful. 955 00:44:32,940 --> 00:44:33,940 I can't imagine that. 956 00:44:33,940 --> 00:44:34,940 That's so awful. 957 00:44:34,940 --> 00:44:37,020 I mean, all of it, like, the whole situation. 958 00:44:37,020 --> 00:44:38,020 But thank God for DNA. 959 00:44:38,020 --> 00:44:41,380 But isn't that wild that he died two years, not even two years, like, almost two years 960 00:44:41,380 --> 00:44:42,380 ago. 961 00:44:42,380 --> 00:44:43,380 Yeah, almost two years ago. 962 00:44:43,380 --> 00:44:44,380 Because he technically, it was, made it to 2021. 963 00:44:44,380 --> 00:44:45,380 He was two days away from 2021. 964 00:44:45,380 --> 00:44:46,380 Yeah. 965 00:44:46,380 --> 00:44:47,380 You know, like... 966 00:44:47,380 --> 00:44:48,380 Ugh. 967 00:44:48,380 --> 00:44:50,380 I hope he got COVID in his butt. 968 00:44:50,380 --> 00:44:51,380 He got the butt COVID. 969 00:44:51,380 --> 00:44:52,380 Got the butt vid. 970 00:44:52,380 --> 00:44:53,380 The butt vid. 971 00:44:53,380 --> 00:44:56,380
