NEW SHIRTS. GET THEM.

This week is a new serial killer I've never heard of! This time for sure! Tommy Lynn Sells was known as the coast to coast killer and confessed to upwards of 70 murders over a career spanning nearly 20 uninterrupted years of chaos and pain! This one is quite a bit more disturbing than a lot of the other cases I've talked about, so buckle up for a wild ride!

NEW SOCKS. GET THEM.

This week is a new serial killer i've never heard of! Well, maybe. There's a lot of interesting things going on in this story. Paul Zeininger, or Gerald Eugene Stano as he's later called, confessed to over 40 murders of young women, but is he really guilty of everything he's been accused of or confessed to? Let's go over everything i've found and see what we can figure out!
