I grew up about 2 miles from his mother's house. I was living there still at 18 yrs old in 1981. Talk about "There but for the grace of God…". I was aware of this monster before, but Thank you for researching the details, Danelle. I learned a lot.
the way you and other true crime people speak about abused children is dehumanizing. he wasnāt āborn evilā. he was abused as a toddler and everything you know about his behavior was told by his ādisciplinarian motherā. thatās not how psychology works and this way of understanding childhood trauma is directly harming real life children. there is already more than one case of a mother killing her young child because she was convinced her kid is a āpsychopathā.
Richard makes me think of Carl Panzaram. The one big difference is that Panzaram was not only a man of few words, but was also generally honest and unapologetic about his intentions. Richard, it seems, was a fast talker who relied on being sneaky and manipulative, making him far slimier than Panzaram . It says a lot about somebody who is less likable and far slimier than Panzaram.
A lot of mistakes were made here wow.
We had another serial killer around then in my town. His name was George Willis. He killed Kathy Foy and Kelly Smith. I knew Kelly & her brother from school.
How have I never heard of this case?!? When my spouse gets home I will have to ask him about it. He would have been a late teen early 20s living in New Jersey and Staten Island at the time, so I am curious if he remembers this.
If you need an editor I am available in my free time. I am not a pro by any means, but I'm able to at least cut out your "ums" and long pauses and also not cut your words off like they currently are, which does make it very hard to listen to.
How many serial killers can we name and their backstories, how many victims can you name and their backstories? It is really heartbreaking that we know so little about so many lost lives. I can totally understand why you tear up while talking about this. Thank you for your empathy and always being geniune with us.
Mustāve been a Democrat that released him from jail
Then, married somebody stunning and brave ā¦ š¤¦āāļø
Is she pregnant??š
I'm only 10 minutes in but his history of being electrocuted is sickening ,mental health health has a lot to answer for and be responsible for.
Just found your podcast and subscribed. I had no clue you had a podcast. An amazing surprise
thank you for covering this, Danelle! I have never heard of it either.
Hi Danelle! I am off work today and just finishing this episode. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your respect for the victims. I would so much rather watch this video than something thatās kind of silly and cheesy regarding Halloween. I understand people that want Halloween-based stories, but we really need to have more focus on these victims. I understand why you were emotional! I wish we knew more about these women. I do know that Maria was my age. Iāve always lived in NYC so of course Iāve been to the Jersey shore, Iāve been to Asbury park. I went to a Halloween party in 1981 as well. It just breaks my heart that they did nothing but try to live their 18 year old lives. Thank you for drawing attention to the important parts of the story. ā¤ļø
The best part of this video is knowing this monster is dead. Talk about the bad seed.
Oh my goodness.
Speaking towards his childhood: I worked in an adoption agency in college, specifically domestic (aka: foster kids). My job was to submit "options" of children to our waiting families (it sickens me how commodified it all is, but unfortunately it's what's worked). That meant I read the family profile and used databases to literally search for children, and then I read the child's profile. I still have nightmares about some of the case files I read, 11years later.
One sibling group in particular still haunts me today: they were 4 and 6. Their history was so horrific that they were labeled an arsonist and a sexual predator. I can't remember which is which but I can't wrap my head around how EITHER is a label to slap on a child so young. After reading their case files I went to the bathroom and threw up, then went home and sobbed for hours. I had nightmares about what these poor children had gone through for weeks on end. I'm not going to disclose further details because it's just too horrific and I'd rather not scar you all or re-traumatize myself.
All that to say: I just don't understand how anyone could treat another living being – a human child, nonetheless – in such a manner that they're broken before they can even read.
I still think about those kids and wonder where they are today. I hope they got and continue to get the support and love that they so severely lacked in infancy and early childhood. I still cry when I think about them.
Also, I'm familiar with the Children's Village because a guy I dated in HS lived fairly close. It's in a beautiful setting and really peaceful; I had no idea the level some kids were at, though. Yikes.
Your videos are the first to get me into true crime on YouTube.
I watch a couple of other channels but nothing makes me happier than seeing a new Danelle Hallan video
š¢
I still can't believe that people argue about the death penalty being a cruel and unusual punishment. That a man should just have a life sentence. What about the victims that were killed? Do you think they had a nice time being killed? It irritates me!
How on earth has this guy stayed under the typical serial radar? Possibly Over 100 victims and he is not up there with Bundy or Gacy? Unreal. I was 18 in 1983 and in Maine so you were spot on about the hitch hiking and general trust at the time. It was, however, starting to change. Thank you for bringing this forward to the light again. The victims need to be heard. They need to be remembered. No matter how long itās been.
Amazing case retelling Danelle, he is one of the less talked about killers for sure. Im still reeling from you Crime After Crime announcement – that it will be ending in 1 yr, I absolutely love that and have done from episode 1 š„ŗš¢
āBetsy Baconā is just the cutest, most kids-book sounding name Iāve ever heard š„ŗ
This case is crazy but I have to say to bring a little light hearted laugh the quote …like a damn cannon idk y but it cracked me up
Itās so cute to hear you butcher the names of places in Jersey lol but this was a great video and I whole heartedly agree with you about knowing information about the killer but none about the victims itās sucks
Omg I live 2 minutes away. They just turned the Burger King into a dental office. The hotel is still there behind the Chevrolet dealership and Good Will
Thank you for speaking with such compassion about the victims. Too often we focus on the murders and their names, but itās the victims who canāt speak for themselves that need us to continue to say their names. My heart goes to those whoās names are unknown, we wonāt forget you.
me from brick nj watching this š®
Can't believe never heard of this lived in a few of these towns pass the Mt calvary cemetery everyday. Research true crime in new Jersey often specifically Jersey shore. And historical stuff. like to know about where I live
Hello I came across you're video as I saw your thumbnail for the video. Maria Cialella was a friend of mine in highschool. She was such a sweet girl and the I still remember the last time I saw her which was at school and her beautiful smile. I want to thank you for your research and your compassion that you put into this video and your sweetness and sensitivity towards the victims and their friends and families. It's very much appreciated. You didn't sensationalize and you stuck to the facts. If a vid like this was to made I'm glad it was by you who showed such compassion. Thank you. Maria Cialella and the other victims are forever in our hearts.
Excellent video! Itās nice to hear about cases that havenāt been covered before.
I want some consequences for the judges/parole boards/lawyers/etc who facilitate letting these monsters out to kill/assault more people. Maybe that would deter them from just making shitty decisions that donāt take public safety into account
Diane knew what was up. She married a known murderer and he has weapons all
Over the place, secret rooms and shit. Um no, she totally knew and she should have been imprisoned for it
This is insane!! How did a cop killer get released on good behavior????
What about the cruel and unusual punishment he imposed upon innocent victims?
ive grown up in the jersey shore area, literally have lived in the town one of the victims was from my whole life, but ive never even heard of this case before. even though its been so long, i cant believe ive never heard of this before today. its so great that youre telling the victims stories and keeping their names and lives heard after so many years.
Parts of this went down literally where I grew up and lived my entire life until last year. Youāve mentioned the actual town I grew up in, plus many of the surrounding areas that I shopped at, have friends whom live in, and that Iāve spent time in. Yet I have never heard of this case. Wow.
The way u presented this case is excellent. Thank you for bringing cold cases to light. šš»
Well, hereās the way my mind works, and please donāt think Iām trying to make light of the horrible things he did, butā¦ when you were talking about Richard drinking and gambling at the age of 8, Lampwick from Pinocchio flashed through my mind. š
Youāre still always my number one fav true crime YTer!! Your videos are so easy to listen and follow along with a d always have the best info
So what's the problem with weapons laying around your home?
Born and raised in New Jersey by the shore. Thank you so much for this video Iāve told multiple people about it.
