Serial Killer confirmed in South Carolina

[Laurie]

Not everyone watches the news so I wanted to make sure to make aware any South Carolina members. CNN has reported a confirmed serial killer and is urging family members to check up on each other especially those who live alone.
Here is the line from CNN please read it and make yourself aware of your surroundings:

This isn't too far away from me, and is in a pretty small town where a lot of people don't even lock their doors. It's terrible what is going on there.

 

[InkedupTara]

Very scarey!

 

[starleomach]

scary

 

[BooBoo*TheKiddo*]

Wow...that's scary.

 

[Spoof]

Yikes.

"Our concern is that people are going to start shooting at shadows," he said.

Yeesh, no point in wasting good ammunition. At least make sure you hit something, preferably the serial killer... skunks and possums are ok too.

Sad & Scary!
Sad for the people that have been killed and scary that he's still out there.

Haha...Most people there are probably armed and dangerous whether there is a serial killer on the loose or not!

That is so scary! We went through the BTK thing a few years back before he was finally captured. My mom and sisters wouldn't go into their house unless they called the landline from their cell and got their answering machines. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dennis_Rader

I hope everyone in SD stays safe and they catch this person very soon!

 

[TillyChinchilla]

Wow - that is pretty scary.

The last major thing we had here was a couple weeks ago. A 17 year old killed his mother, "violated" the corpse, and stuffed her in a trash can.

 

[Spoof]

Wow. That's a disturbing head case there.

Apparently the suspect was killed today trying to rob a store near Charlotte, NC and had an extensive record...now we can all sleep a little safer!!

My mom and sisters wouldn't go into their house unless they called the landline from their cell and got their answering machines.

Maybe I'm a little confused, but if I were a serial killer, I wouldn't answer the phone of the house in which I was lying in wait to kill someone in? (I do know my grammar is confused! But hopefully my sentence made sense.)

I think it behooves people to be careful all the time though... if you're only careful when there's a serial killer out there, it would be a problem to be the serial killer's first kill...

I assumed that it was his MO to cut the phone lines in a house he had targeted, so it was thought if the machine came on they were OK.

Ah. That wasn't made obvious in the wikipedia article, so I missed it. I guess it makes sense then.

One less murderer on the streets! Serial killer was slain by police in a home while investigating a burglary...

Hey, leave the poor possums alone!

 

[Rickman]

Yeah, just ship 'em to Chantel's - she's trying to fill a Toyletta with 'em!! haha

Correct.

I hope the SC situation is over now. Poor families.
