The dad died in 2013 and the daughter contacted the sheriff's office for the second time in 2021. When was the first time? It seems pretty shitty she seemingly waited until after his death to come forward about this. If she told them earlier she could've maybe saved some lives (assuming what she's saying is true).

Edit: apparently she did and no one listened. Crazy

Maybe if he was killing 6-7 women every year like she claimed, she was afraid for her own life.

Omg what!!?

>"No one would listen to me," Studey said. "The teacher said family matters should be handled as a family, and law enforcement has said they couldn't trust the memory of a child. I was just a kid then, but I remember it all."

I take back what I said. If her claims are true and no one followed up on this, wow.

It's like a double insult for women and girls - they don't believe the girl telling them what's happening, for DECADES, while other young women are also being killed. So disgusting. I bet if she had a boy tell the authorities, then it actually would be investigated perhaps? 🤔🤦🏻‍♀️

I feel like I remember a case where someone had their brother tell the cops after she got snuffed and they took the case... Or her boyfriend or something?

Damn, this goes beyond police incompetence.

This is starting to sound like some sort of full blown community denial.

If she's right, poor woman to have to live with this.
