Villisca Axe Murders

Yeah, but "Big Pharma" is not going to let that story come out...ever.
There was a book out a couple years ago making a case for a serial killer who worked on the railroad who had a spree of a number of murders along the route he worked on. The author cited murders in Colorado, Kansas, Indiana, Illinois, etc. attributed to this guy including Villisca. I attended a lecture by an old guy who became interested in the case in the 1950s when he was in high school. Back then he interviewed quite a few people who were living in Villisca in 1912. His book narrowed down his suspects to two or three guys, but he wouldn't give his opinion as to who he thought it was.
Force him to drive a Cybertruck. Should be a decent punishment.
Might have been. It was her MO . How many axe murderers were around in the 1890s and early 1900s .
A family and gyil
a family of 6 and 2 guests were axed to death. They took a Presbyterian ministry to trial twice. One was a hung jury and 1 was an innocent verdict. There was other suspects but only he went to trial. So remains unsolved
Sorry, I don’t know how I went down this rabbit hole but I found the case a little fascinating. Maybe it’s just the off season and I’m tired of vaccine threads but I will relent. Hope all is well in your neck of the woods.
Seems like something only someone who has been there and done that would know!?!
😬🤔🤣
Read this book from a couple of years ago- great read BTW if you are in to true crime stuff.
The cliff notes version is that the author connected dots to similar crimes that were perpetuated across the country on rail lines. Back then there was very little information sharing with police departments back then and this was highlighted in the book as one of the main factors.

Who, Paterno? Come on, that dude had NO IDEA what was going on, none, not at all. For 30+ years he totally had no idea. Just ask PSU fans.
Probably a better suspect than the Minister they tried two times.Read this book from a couple of years ago- great read BTW if you are in to true crime stuff.
