Same with search and rescue and cadaver dogs. My parents train them. They are trained to come back to their handler and quietly lay down if they hit on something. It always bugs me to see movies where search dogs are walking through the forest frantically barking and the police go, "We got something here!"

I car was pulled over in front of my house a while back and they brought the dog out. As it was sniffing around I saw the cop tap his thigh and the dog instantly sat down. They then proceeded to search the whole car. Lucky for them they really didn't have anything and were let go.
Which right off the bat should show drug dogs should not be used. How do you get a "hit" but not come up with anything and still act like it's a viable tool?
I get breathalyzer aren't enough to convict an an owi but are enough to take a blood sample. But breathalyzer don't lie about alcohol only the amount. You can't make the breathalyzer ding you on command.

If he did kill 60 or 70 women without being caught, he'd not only set all sorts of gruesome records (only in the US as Luis Garavito of South America is suspected of killing as many as 300) but it'd also be a wake-up call for people at agencies like the FBI. Even over a lifetime, 70 kills is a lot. And not getting caught the entire time, is even more miraculous.

If you kill people who have no connection to the community, who know one really knows that well or those who don't do know for sure where they are i.e. Travelers, backpackers, runaways etc. Its very easy to get away with it.
After all who's going to notice their missing? And if they do who's going to come looking here in the middle of nowhere?

One of Jeffery Dahmer's victims, a 14 year old boy called Konerak Sinthasomphone actually escaped from Dahmer and ran into the street naked and disoriented. Not only did Milwaukee cops not believe him or the neighbors who reported it, they handed him back to Dahmer who strangled him to death 30 minutes after they left. While the cops were checking out Dahmers apartment, there was another body in the bedroom that the cops didn't see.

There was a recent case of a girl who escaped her house where she and her siblings were kept chained by their parents. She took some cell phone pics of her siblings before she escaped and the cops said that was a real smart move because without the pics they might have just considered her a runaway and returned her home.

Jordan Turpin.
Yeah, the cops treated it as a "runaway" situation and were fully prepared to return her to her parents, despite her saying they'd tried to kill her before, and would absolutely do it again. The only reason they entered the home at all was because of those pictures. When they went inside, they found a dozen emaciated kids, some of whom were chained to their beds and hadn't bathed for a year.
It's considered one of the worst child abuse cases in America's history, and the cops almost didn't investigate.
Thankfully Jordan seems to be doing great now. She has an active TikTok account and keeps in touch with her siblings.

I think that was Gary Ridgeway's victim profile. His mistake was that he left the bodies to be found near the Green River. Gacy made the mistake that he began to take people who would be missed. I think if he had stuck to male prostitutes he'd have gone another decade or more.
It's really sad that there are segments of society that can be killed off and no one seems to notice or care.
SofieTerleska t1_itsu6zm wrote
Gacy actually took people who would be missed quite early on, that's the crazy thing about him. Yes, there were runaways and prostitutes mixed in there but his second or third victim had worked for him and the kid's father was begging cops to look into Gacy, and throughout the next few years Gacy employees also disappeared. It's just that it being the seventies, no bodies, and the kids being older than, oh, 12, the cops were all too happy to write them off as runaways. I've seen people say he only got caught because his last victim was a "good kid" but the kid really wasn't that different from plenty of previous victims -- a high school kid living with his parents and looking for part time work. What really got Gacy in trouble was kidnapping the kid as his mother was literally waiting in a drugstore for him to come back from the parking lot so she could drive him home. Even lazy Illinois cops couldn't write that one off as a random runaway.

If he'd lived in the country on a giant block of land he could probably have just dumped the bodies in the woods and no one would have known.

Add in the fact that very few people are going to notice prostitutes going missing and nobody is going to notice a runaway missing and yes, it’s very possible.
finnerpeace t1_itsh51c wrote
A lot of it is that these are relatively transient lifestyles anyway. When they're killed, if there's not a body appearing somewhere, it can look like they just up and left. If there are people who know them well enough to know they didn't take their stuff etc, these are often the types of people who will generally avoid law enforcement: fellow prostitutes, pimps, etc.

>"Every time I went to the well or into the hills, I didn't think I was coming down. I thought he would kill me because I wouldn't keep my mouth shut."
She was a brave-ass girl. Despite this indeed told people.
You know, with the Dahmer case etc folks always tell about how no one believes black folks. Which I don't doubt. Yet here was a white family in the middle of a white-ass state. And she still wasn't believed. I'm sure some was that she was a kid, and some that she was a girl rather than boy. But I'm thinking what's up is people just don't want to believe these things, either from horror, fear, not wanting to have to deal with it, or the simple surprise-disbelief when we see something absolutely insane and our minds can't process it, especially not quickly. And all these factors become excuses to look the other way.
finnerpeace t1_itsjcjb wrote
Thinking more about this, I mean, if a kid told me something like this, I sure as hell wouldn't want to have to deal with it. And I'm very ethical, and have done shit pretty regularly like jump in pools to save a kid, yoink an attacking dog off a smaller one, etc. So I'm likely among the more-likely to respond types. Yet still if a kid told me this, I'd be terrified to act, and beyond that terror, I'd simply have no idea what to do. Call the cops and report? But then I'd worry I'd be getting the kid killed...
Anyone know what we actually do if someone does tell us about serious, needs-intervention crime?
SofieTerleska t1_itstg8s wrote
Also, we don't know how direct she was about reporting. It sounds bad now but if you have a 12 year old saying something indirect like "I just get a really bad feeling about that well" or calling in a tip anonymously then it's hard to know how serious it is. And I wouldn't blame her one bit for not just spitting it out, because in that sort of situation, if you tell the wrong person and they roll their eyes, send you home, and possibly even tell your father what you said, you could have just punched your own ticket.

The location is Thurman, Iowa, population 167. I looked at a map of that area and it appears that there's not a whole lot there. Iowa has 1/3 the population of New Jersey but over 6x the land. Sounds lonely. If the property where the well was has recently been logged, it sounds like a place where nobody would ever know what was going on there.
The alleged mass murder was a gun and drug smuggler. If you're bringing drugs from another area, women around the drug supply aren't exactly tethered to a community - they're people who live at the fringes.

Most people feel guilty about stealing a candy bar, stealing a life would be a heavy burden to bare unless you aren't all wired correctly.
MGD109 t1_itrexga wrote
It depends on a lot on the type of serial killer.
Mission based killers, basically their convinced that taking these lives is adding up to something tangible. To them each kill is the satisfaction you get from success of completing a really hard task that will benefit your life down the line.
Power and Control killers, its not so much taking the life, more that each time they do so they prove to the world their better than the person they just killed. To take a life is the ultimate form of control over another human being.
Visionary killers are usually insane, they honestly believe that either something is commanding them to kill or that the person their after must die for some reason.
Finally hedonistic killers, simply take pleasure out of the act itself. Their most often sexual homicides, but it doesn't need to be. Their generally split into three subcategories: Lust Killers, Thrill Killers and Comfort Killers.
There are other sub categories, but generally those are the four main motivations (their are also cases where the person is simply so far gone they honestly can't stop themselves from killing, but their extremely rare).
However, most of the time it can be boiled down to the idea that they have a hole in themselves. One that they need to fill, and that is usually done by killing.
The twisted thing about serial killers is often the actual killings the point their least interested in. Usually their thrill comes from all the preparation and ritualistic elements that build up to kill.

Cadaver dogs on separate searches of the property indicated scents of human remains in the same locations. Incidentally, one of the locations is a 90 foot well and a place the daughter has reported that her father made her and her siblings help him dispose of remains. If that’s not worthy of an investigation I don’t know what is. If these claims are true the families of the victims deserve to know what happened to their loved ones.

If she is proven to be right, this may just be a good example of the mindset of the people who denied her all these years :/

.... That's literally the WHOLE POINT of checking out a lead that may and often does lead to stopping a crime, you absolute walnut-brained dingbat.

You don’t think the families of these victims (assuming they exist) might like some closure?

Investigators are unsure if there's any truth to her claims because the only evidence they got was a "hit" by a cadaver dog.

Oh shit. That shit is filled with bodies.
