Showing results for "The Body" in Serial Killers

Two brave journalists dare to expose the music industry's darkest secret; that country music legend, Garth Brooks, may very well be, a blood-thirsty serial killer. Through a combination of interviews with federal law enforcement, criminologists, and music insiders, as well as exhaustive research into Garth’s connection to hundreds of unsolved homicides and missing persons, the authors piece together their satirical case.

On a chilly November afternoon in 1998, a tearful 36-year-old man walked into the Humboldt County Sheriff's Department in Eureka, California, and confessed to something horrible. "I hurt some people," he said. Inside his pocket was the ghastly proof of his statement. But there was more to Wayne Adam Ford than the trail of mangled victims he left behind.

In October, 1996, young, pretty, and petite women began vanishing off the streets of Poughkeepsie, New York. Most were prostitutes and some were addicts. By August, 1998, the toll had reached eight, when a prostitute told police she had barely escaped being strangled by Kendall Francois, 27, a 6'4", 300-lb. middle school hall monitor whose slovenly personal hygiene had earned him the nickname "Stinky". Inside his house, the smell was worse, as investigators discovered a tangle of rotting flesh and bones.
