The True Crime Librarian

Cleansed by the Water- the Hunt for the Green River Killer ep 4

27 possible victims at this juncture in 1983, they weren't even halfway through the year and their killer was adding notches to his bedpost faster than they were finding the bodies of the missing. No matter where investigators focused their eyes Gary was 2 steps ahead...

Gary was developing a pattern, certain areas on the strip became his go-to spots, his dumping sites would be used until compromised, and his vehicle description changed so that no two could correctly identify him... he was smart and always felt superior to those hunting him down... he was perfecting his craft and it was taking less time from the minute he picked up a woman to the point he dumped her lifeless body somewhere in the surrounding forest and vegetation.
Parents were frantic to find their missing daughters, only to find that they fit the profile of the type of victim hunted by the Green River Killer... many were left to wonder what happened to their daughters for nearly 3 decades... Gary was working in overdrive and had no plans of slowing down...
