Serial Butcher Killer - Parkersburg, Wes...

James Pietragallo, Jimmie Whisman
About this episode

This week , in Parkersburg, West Virginia, what looks like a simple drug murder, at first, turns out to be anything but that. It turns out to be the work of a psychotic serial killer, who loves nothing more than cutting people into pieces, and even leaving heads displayed for maximum effect. He commits many more murders, and when he's finally caught, he scares even the most hardened detectives with his cold blooded violence!!

 

Along the way, we find out that you can get a mansion in West Virginia at regular house prices, that if you see a head on your nightstand, you shouldn't look at anything else, before running from the house, and that some people's depravity is deeper than we can imagine!!
