“The vibes were waaay off.”
He seemed friendly enough.
Then a local girl went missing and was eventually pulled out of a river a few weeks later.

They announced they were looking for somebody in connection with her death and it was him.

A cannibal
Sat next to him in choir class.
He was always kind of off.
He operated on his own wavelength.
Constantly in his own world, never really engaging with anybody.
People just didnt really exist on his radar.
A few months ago he beat and stabbed his mother to death with a kitchen knife.
It was so bad dental records were needed to identify the body.
He cut off one of her breasts and implied in his confession that he ate part of it.
He waited until his dad came home from work to show him what hed done.
Claimed he saw a sign from the devil that told him to kill her.
(That may have been a lie.
From what I heard he was very excited to tell the police what he had done.
And from what I do know about him, he might have said it for the attention.)
He turned himself in, waived his Miranda rights, and confessed to everything.
When the cops found him he was literally soaked in blood.
Hes looking at 40 years in prison.
His Mom was an amazing woman, she tailored our suits for choir and was constantly volunteering.
If there was an event, she was there.
She was gonna be her towns councilwoman next year.
She loved her son very much.
She didnt deserve to die like that.
We lived near each other and caught the bus from the same stop.
He was a bit of a bully but it was something more.
Like the kind of kid who enjoyed pulling wings off flies.
He couldnt deal with the toddler crying anymore so he beat her.
He caused severe internal bleeding and she died in hospital not long after.
He would have been around 22 when he did it.
He was sentenced to 36 years with a non parole period of 27 years.
I went and the best friends boyfriend was there and the vibes were waaay off.
He was cold, and just seemed angry for no reason.
Turns out controlling was an understatement.
He hit her, said if he cant have her, nobody could have her, all of that.
So eventually she left him and had to get a restraining order and everything.
Turns out he stabbed her to death, threw her in a river and killed himself.
She was so young, it was really sad.
My mother knew them better than myself, but we all thought they were lovely.
A couple of years ago the son went to the hospital several times asking for help.
A few weeks later during a small argument he stabbed his stepfather to death in the front garden.
He turned himself in the next day, and wasnt convicted as he sought help before it happened.
Instead, he got the treatment he needed.

I never suspected a thing
I never suspected a thing.
The story: She was married to a man, I knew him from my time living there too.
One day, he was just gone.
She was all beaten up.
We never heard from him again, but didnt really have a reason to.
He was self-employed and didnt really have any family, no one suspected anything.
Three years later she was dating another man.
They went to the boyfriends cabin, where they both were, to arrest her.
She came to the door, said ok, let me go put on some clothes.
The police then hear two gunshots.
It took some time to get the house fire under control.
The body in the basement was her boyfriend.
Later that same year, I learned that he shot and killed someone at a gas station.
I didnt want to allow him in, but one of my coworkers had already said it was okay.
The other kids were around 12-14 and he kept rubbing their shoulders and making them visibly uncomfortable.
When I told him to stop, he just stared at me for a few seconds without saying anything.
The was NOTHING in those eyes.
The murderers mother ended up turning him in.
Still, wed chill at each others place regularly.
I passed him one day in the stairwell and I said hi.
He said hi back but called me by the wrong name.
He was really distracted and kind of awkward.
He didnt make eye contact and kept moving.
I remember thinking maybe we we dont know each other as well as I thought.
He apologized and said his mind was elsewhere.
A couple days later there are cops all over the building, interviewing people and searching his place.
The next day he confessed.

No joy
I worked in a food court in my early 20s.
This family would come in pretty regularly.
The family stuck out because they were giants.
Mom was easily 61 and dad was 67.
They had a few kids.
Nothing really stuck out at the time.
They never seemed happy but never fought.
They just always looked like they were just coming out of mourning.
I heard a few years back that the mom decided to leave the dad.
The dad murdered the whole family and then killed himself.
Another coworker did something similar.
He lived with his elderly dad.
He was a super nice, but just always had this deep sadness behind his face.
His gf broke up with him, his dads health went south.
Everything became too much so he shot his dad and then himself.
Even after hearing that, i felt bad for him.
He bought a murder kit online and stabbed her over 50 times.
Lets call him Steve.
I knew him through scouts.
Now, to preface, our scout troop was pretty laid back.
We didnt tend to bother with badges and the two troop leaders were pretty cool guys.
You get the picture.
We were a little bit a gang of misfits.
But Steve was really weird.
At first it was like outrageous and funny, and he kept getting told to stop.
He also used to bring in print outs of super gross porn (obviously confiscated and thrown away).
Again, he was clearly trying to gross people out for his amusement.
When I found out i was shocked, but not surprised.
Had goofy huge sideburns.
It was heartbreaking…and I no longer take lightly word of domestic disputes.

He was dumb
I knew this kid my entire life.
We were friends in elementary and middle school (more middle school.)
He was your typical redneck kid but a kind person.
Imagine if pinky from pinky and the brain grew up in the rural south.
Well as people do in school we drifted apart.
He honestly wasnt the person in the group I was friends with he was just in that circle.
So we went about out lives.
A year after we graduated in the same town we all grew up in he killed his entire family.
Mother, brother, stepsister, father.
Just for no reason.
Nothing really provoked him from my understanding.
He left and went to ride atvs with his friend later that day.
They caught him and he had no memory of it.
He just sat stone faced the entire time.
Almost like he didnt understand what had happened.
Not to say I felt bad for him but I felt something, sadness perhaps.
Seemed like an utterly selfless guy.
Literally everybody loved the guy.
Two years ago killed his wife and then himself after an argument.

The police didnt care
Not my experience, but my grandmothers.
she got pregnant at 15 by my grandfather and had to get married (1960s).

He had anger issues
My bio-dad ended up murdering my step-mom.
Everyone in my family, my mom and two older brothers definitely knew that something was up.
He even almost choked my mom to death a couple of times.
Obviously my mom was smart and divorced him as he didnt want to see him kill my brothers.
None of us were surprised.
If anything I was just so grateful my mom left him.
Its so strange that I am directly related to a murderer.
rassion-isle
I never would have known
Never.
The last time I posted this, I said he killed another teen in a drug related turf war.
I looked up his case afterwards and it was actually two.

He seemed off
The first time I met him.
Jose was a friend of my ex and something immediately seemed off.
I told my ex to keep his distance, that Jose would only get him into some shit.
I hope that asshole rots in prison.
Turns out everybody was tired of his shit, so the killing was never reported.
hirisol139
I knew immediately
Not sure if this fits here but its a sad story nonetheless.
The day he shows up, he has his 11 year old daughter with him to help out.
The second I see the both of them I think i think hes molesting her.
He brought her over everyday for two weeks while he did the kitchen.
I said yeah, why?
Did he get caught molesting his daughter?
She goes uh…how did you know that?
Before that, I would have told you she was one of the calmest coolest people in our school.
Would have never suspected her to do something like that.
His mom died and his dad survived but was severely injured.
Last I heard he was crying crocodile tears saying he regrets everything and wants another chance.
But knowing him, its total bullshit.
He deserves to rot.
It had been years since we had talked and he suddenly showed up looking for me.
He killed his roommate because he was gay and made a pass at him.
Dumped the body in the mine in Boulder County Colorado.
Kind of a weirdo, but still a great guy overall.
Im still unsure today if I should have seen anything at any point.
It comes to haunt my nightmares from time to time.
