"I was born with the devil in me. I could not help the fact that I was a murderer, no more than the poet can help the snspiration to sing." - H.H. Holmes H.H. Holmes is one of the more widely known serial killers in American history. When he is thought of people often think first of The Murder Castle but the truth truly is much different than the stories that have been conflated over the years. Bailey and I hypothesize on this episode if he should be more remembered as a psychological and intelligent grifter who also murdered, rather than a tortuous serial killer.

On Wednesday October 4th, 1978 a young man was laying wire for a telephone company in Lyon County, Iowa when he thought he saw a mannequin lying in amongst the weeds along Highway 182. As he approached he quickly realized that it was actually human remains. Those human remains belonged to a woman who would remain only known as Jane Doe for 26 1/2 years until a fingerprint finally told investigators that those remains had belonged to Wilma June Nissen, a woman who had previously been arrested for being a street-worker in California. Now, 47 years after her murder what happened and who was behind the murder are still a mystery but Wilma's biological daughter Krissi Atkisson is still looking for and hoping for answers so that she can allow her mom to rest in peace and hopefully see some kind of justice come to those who are guilty of her murder.

On April 4, 2015 Amanda Taylor and Sean Ball would go to Amanda's father-in-law's home with one intention, to kill him. Amanda blamed Charles (her father in law) for the suicide of her husband because she says that he had caused her husband Rex to become an addict from a very early age. Amanda followed through on her plan for murder, took a selfie of herself with the murder weapon and Charles' dead body and then took off leading police on a woman-hunt across state lines until she was found because of her obsession with social media. Amanda was stopped before she could take more lives and her own life, all of which was part of her plan.

In 2014 Alexander Hernandez went on perhaps one of the quietest serial killer sprees in American History. He took the lives of 5 people and 11 people survived his random and unprovoked attacks. Victims were going about their lives, on their way to work, on their way to church and following traffic laws when they were attacked. Hernandez' case took a long time to go through the courts and honestly there is VERY little out there about him, his crimes and his victims.

On October 3, 1984 a 9-year-old girl named Christine Jessop got off her bus and went home from school. By the time that her mom and her brother got home though Christine was gone. It was nearly three months that the family went without any answers and then Christine's body was found and it was evident that she had been murdered and sexually assaulted. What would ensue was frankly an absolute farce of an investigation that would see two trials and then see Guy Paul Morin wrongfully convicted and imprisoned. This story has a lot of twists and turns and thankfully the question of who killed Christine Jessop has finally been answered but only after thoroughly destroying the life of another man.

In July of 2008 Caylee Anthony would be reported missing after she had not been seen by her mother or her grandparents for just over one month and prior to the 911 calll made by Cindy Anthony (Caylee's grandmother) there was not any contact whatsoever with police. What unfolded from there is a long line of lies and seemingly covering up from many corners and ultimately to this day nobody knows what the true cause of death was for Caylee as her mom Casey was found not guilty of her murder. This week we relay the case and have a deep discussion and Lance certainly veers off in his own direction that doesn't fit the beliefs of the majority when it comes to this case. This is a long one!
