Was it in the thread on here that had an article stating they thought it might have been the guy who killed the custodian at the church in Somerset or did I see that somewhere else. I guess they were able to rule him out though since it isn't solved.

Unreal they haven’t found this person yet considering they have audio and visual images of this monster.

Also.....every time I see the old thread (or new one in this case) pop up, I open it hoping there has been a break in the case. Always disappointing when that’s not the case.

There is a new podcast called Down the Hill: The Delphi Murders. It has law enforcement, family, community, etc interviewing. Hopefully this guy is caught soon. Im sure his life has been pure hell since he committed the crimes just knowing at any minute the police could be busting down his door. I’d like to see them bring back the electric chair for people like this.

I listened to that the other day. Still crazy that they still don't even have a suspect.

Yes I also listened to the podcast and have an interest in the true crime book and podcast genre. I have all of the TC podcasts and consume as much as possible. I truly believe the Sheriff in the Delphi case seems like a good guy who truly cares and will
Never rest until the POS is found and incarcerated.

Switching topics—I listen to a TC podcast called Unresolved and his episode this weekend was about an old bootleg video most likely from the 80’s that has come to be called “grave robbing for dummies”. This is some weird stuff and I kinda went down the rabbit hole on it for a few hours. Anyone who hasn’t heard of this the video is all over YT and the inter webs.

It’s not known whether it’s real or fake, or some variation thereof. But, it’s a weird video that kinda of intrigues.

Yep like the Monster series for sure. Zodiac was great. Also he did the Atlanta child murders and the current one on the DC Sniper is pretty good.

I consume this stuff like crazy man. I have been fascinated for a long time with the TC genre. It’s amazing what people are capable of doing.

The episode about Lawrence Kane is creepy. The realtor shows up at a house in the desert and while waiting the hearse pulls in saying they were told a dead woman's body would be there. I don't think Larry Kane was zodiac but he sure was a creep. He is similar though.

I think Ross Sullivan may be Zodiac. My best guess.

One of the craziest things about the Zodiac is the amount of loonies that are on the suspect list. Larry Kane, Sullivan, Ted kazinski, Arthur Leigh Allen, etc. I agree Sullivan is very compelling especially related to his being prime suspect for the Cheri jo bates murder and his weird behavior while working at the library there at the college bates was killed.

If you enjoyed the Monster Zodiac series check out a podcast called “Criminology”. I don’t know if you can access the old episodes for free but they had their first 3 seasons each dedicated to a specific well known case. I think first season was zodiac, second was Golden State killer and third was ted Bundy. They put out at least 10-12 episodes on each case. Very well done prolly my favorite podcast at least those early episodes. I think if you join stitcher for free you can access those old episodes and you get the first month free.

Crazy part was During the middle of their second season about the GSK they actually captured the freaking guy 30 years after his crimes. That was a very surreal thing bc the timing related to that show was nuts. I was also fascinated by the GSK and it is amazing what they were able to find out about him using the genetic genealogy. Freaking guy was a former cop.

DELPHI, Ind. — An Indiana man arrested for kidnapping, beating and sexually assaulting a 9-year-old girl is now being investigated for a possible tie to the 2017 Delphi murders of Abby Williams and Libby German.

James Brian Chadwell, 42, was arrested last week and was charged with attempted murder and other crimes. The sheriff said Chadwell has been on their radar in the Delphi case and they are now looking into him.

It's been a long time since we've heard anything. There was some suspect last summer that didn't apparently go anywhere. The guy looked like the drawing.

Now my rant. I hope I don't ever look like any creeps that goes out and kills people because the cops will arrest me.

Tattoos of little girls on his arm?

Astute observers noted that Chadwell has tattoos of two girls’ faces on his arms in which they appear to be crying blood. Some people on social media believe one of the faces looks like Libby German; however, authorities have not publicly connected Chadwell to the murders of Libby and Abby other than to say they are looking into him.

Sick fuke had a 9-yr old girl chained to his basement floor. He also beat, bit and assaulted her. There are people in this world who deserve to be brutalized in prison on a daily basis. This guy is one of them.

I get that and would be fine with it. I just think if he is raped and brutalized on a daily basis I’m prison that could be much worse than a quick death and would also serve as some form of payback for what he did to his victims.

Either way if that bastard suffers as much as possible, works for me.

I would like to see the kids' parents and or grandparents, I think in Liberty's case it's the grandparents, be allowed to shoot the son of a b****.

If he is the guy.

I followed this case when it first happened but don’t remember if they had any DNA evidence. I hope they do

I listened to a podcast about it recently and followed it somewhat loosely. To my recollection, they have not disclosed that they have any DNA but it’s possible. The police have kept a lot, maybe too much, from the public. Including the manner of death and until more recently the killers voice on a recording from one of the girls phones. Why they wouldn’t at least disclose that immediately doesn’t make sense to me. I’m sure they have their reasons just seems odd.

I was thinking the same that not much had been released. The police were tight lipped on the case

False. Sociopaths don’t think that way. They don’t have the capacity.

Yes I knew that. Real pieces of **** they are. I wish they could fry both of them. The old lady at the church was getting him a bag of chips because he told her he was hungry. Cowardly bastard.
