Crime talk timestamp-5:56

In the concluding part to our deep dive on ‘The Truck Stop Killer’ we pick up where sexual deviant Rhodes has finally been caught red-handed .

After being arrested after he was found in his truck with a shackled, naked & terrified woman investigators begin to look deep into his past .

And when they do it becomes clear that the victim rescued from inside his truck was not actually the only lucky survivor who had escaped his wicked clutches.

Investigators now believed that many victims before her had not been so lucky.

Terrifyingly they were faced with the reality that this predator had been on a decades long murderous rampage, using his job as a long haul truck driver to evade detection.

And they believed they now had an incredibly dangerous serial killer on their hands .

This hunch was only reinforced when hundreds of crime photos are discovered in his home , some of which lead to an unsolved murder case being blown wide open & finally solved .

Because in this man’s possession we’re not only whips, chains, and a torture kit containing many tools kept to chase utmost pain …

But also police found many harrowing, tragic photos that are now infamous in the true crime world.

These heartbreaking images captured the final moments of his 14 year old victim Regina Kay Walters whom he had kept alive for weeks so he could continuously terrorise & brutalise her.

A girl who, like so many victims before her , met a violent & tortuous end at the hands of this evil killer.

This case will leave you with the uncomfortable reality that in fact there may not just be many more victims who lost their lives at the hands of Rhodes… But also there very well may be many other killer truck drivers who haven’t been identified yet . And maybe they never will …
