Nobody knows for sure the exact number of men that Herb Baumeister killed. Investigators have an idea of certain individuals who went missing during Baumeister's reign of terror, but Dan Halloran was not on anyone's list as a possible victim. In a previous episode of Body Bags, 10,000 Human Remains Found on Serial Killer's Farm, we told you the horror story of a killer named Herb Baumeister. In this update Joseph Scott Morgan and Dave Mack discuss the story of a little girl whose father was sent away when she was just 2. For 29 years she has wondered what became of her father, and now, thanks to the incredible work of a dedicated county coroner and the scientists at Othram, she knows.
