And by Iowa Serial Killer, I thought we were talking about all the ways Kirk has tried to kill their program lately. Damnit

There was a shorter article in the Register today. Seem weird that she has tried to report this in the past with no results.

Yes but then also women of color and especially women involved es in sex work go missing in high % with authorities not caring. I swear I just read about a woman going missing near Dioux City, wasn't that on CF? Obviously this guy is dead but it's a real crisis in Indigenous and other communities.

If there are 75+ murder victims as this article suggests you would think there would at least be some missing person reports and investigations over that time span. It would be really hard, even in butt **** Iowa, to kill and burry that many people without any suspicion.
not unbelievable.... this is close to the interstate and omaha... young women go missing alot..... throw in these women are most likely from rough/troubled backgrounds.. 70 over 40 years isnt out of the question

Someone on reddit pointed out it was probably more like 2 a year from the Omaha area. Makes it more plausible.

It depends.

If he was targeting people who wouldnt be noticed if they were missing (runaways, sex workers, etc) there may not have been missing persons reports. Even if they were noticed, there have been issues in many places where the reports arent taken or aren't taken seriously.

I think the daughter is claiming a lot of them were prostitutes from Omaha. Wouldn't really take much to drive to KC/St. Jo from there either. Right down 29.

The article said they were all white.

And I imagine he was able to paint his daughter as just some "troubled kid" (and, given what she went through, she very well may have been!) so that the police would view her claims with skepticism.

Unfortunately, one of the biggest allies some of these serial killers have is police incompetence. Look at Dahmer. Or the situation going on down in KC.
What are you referring to occurring in KC?

I’m suggesting merely semantics, but if you would have stated Excelsior Springs instead of KC; I would’ve known exactly what you were referring to.

Excelsior Springs does not equal KC.

I don’t live in KC (in spite of my username) and the events that occurred in ES are horrific.

She was taken from KC I believe.

The amount of people who have went missing or been murdered on the other side border in Nodaway County,MO is crazy. Skidmore may be the deadliest city in America.
Wasn't Skidmore the town where a local thief/whacko kept stealing things but was never arrested? The townspeople finally had enough and they shot him In Broad Daylight the name of the book and movie. The dead guy was shot with bullets and slugs, but no one saw a thing. They took the law in their own hands to deal with the thief.

Ken Rex McElroy. It's also where Lisa Montgomery murdered Bobbi Jo Stinnett and cut the baby out of the womb. There have been a few other murders/missing people situations there. The town only has about 300 people in it. Conception is down around there also. That's where the guy shot all those monks back in the early 2000's. Then there's all the stuff that's happened in Maryville.

Holy cow. In addition to the in Broad Daylight murder it looks like several other murders in the past 20-30 years. A lot for a tiny town.
