From 2009 through 2013, Pitch Pine Crescent of Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, would be visited by investigators reviewing a sudden, suspicious death. It wasn’t the streets fault, it was the nicest house of the affluent area that continued to summon investigators. Three calls of potential murder was what it took  to finally send the message that something was very wrong here.

Spree Killer, Daniel Gonzalez, did nothing but drink, do drugs, play violent video games and watch horror movies. This shouldn’t have been a massive issue, but it became one when Freddy Krueger turned to speak directly to Daniel from the screen.

In the late 90’s, residents of San Luis Obispo were concerned that a serial killer may be on the loose following the disappearance of two Cal Poly Tech students within a two year span, followed by yet another bright young woman abducted on her way to study at Cal. 

A massive police effort would soon bring to light a separate killer than that of the original, highly publicized Kristin Smart case. This all thanks to the work of a parole officer whom thought to question a recently released inmate he referenced as being short and stocky, yet agile. 

Mr. Krebs.
