​@@aurorahill3546Casa Grande is Casa Grande, Arizona's biggest drive-thru. It's a meth town without the means to escape like other Arizona meth towns. No arts scene, no thriving community center, no fulfilling career opportunities (except in law enforcement, the underfunded schools, and in the small local hospital.) A major blow was the opening of the outlet mall in Marana. It took too much buisness away from Casa Grande's only tourist destination, the once thriving, now abandoned outlet strip mall along the I-10. It's a shame because Casa Grande's location should be a selling point. Less than an hour from Tucson, less than an hour from Phoenix, and it's the at junction of two interstates. Anyone headed to or from the San Diego area to or from both Tucson and Phoenix pass right through Casa Grande. Some thought that as the Tucson and Phoenix metro areas expand, Casa Grande would become a bedroom community for people commuting to either for work. It sounds perfect for families with one spouse's career in Phoenix and the other's in Tucson. Unfortunately, daily commute times would be just a bit too long for most, so the mega suburb idea never took off. So, it is what it is. Lots of meth, and lots of vulnerable meth addicts

Not nearly as many as back in the day, I suspect. Trucks are GPS tracked on their routes and they could more easily trace drivers back to the crime these days than back then.

He came through Michigan and I had a run in with him at a rest stop outside of Belleville, Michigan. I actually got away but they found a girls body but no head. She had been bound and tortured. This happened in 1989. I was hitchhiking and he offered me a ride from the rest stop and when I went to get in the truck he was right behind me pushing up into the cab and I have serious fucking problem with someone who gets behind me trying to make me do something. There was another driver right next to his truck watching and he hollered out at him to get his hands off me and he turned around and seen him and it was like the air went out of him and he told me fuck off and find another ride. It wasn't until the guy next to his truck told me that he had a knife in his hand. That guy gave me a ride to Ypsilanti, Mi and the next morning the girls body was found. I was seventeen but I looked fifteen at the time. I still have nightmares about this fucker.

California serial killers like the Golden State killer were allowed to live free! DeAngelo lived 40 years in his house in Sacramento after his killing rape sprees.

Police also benefit getting more overtime hours to work on what’s become a network of serial killer truckers.

I'm pretty sure around the year 2000 I found the belongings of one of his victims. I was just a teenager and had been working for the summer for our family's business. We were staying at a trucker hotel in Sioux City, IA and while we were doing laundry in the laundry room. I spotted a set of women's clothes, 1 pair of shoes, wig, CDs, and other misc personal belongings. I swear I got a bad vibe and thought it was the victim of a killer. I dismissed it at the time but still remember finding that stuff vividly.

I'm 62. My mother told me not to get in any man's car except my father's car which was the only car our family had. When I asked about one of my parents' best friends--the neighbor across the street--my mom said not even him. I knew she meant business. I was only about 6 at the time. I had no concept of sexual assault. But When my mom said I could not even get in that man's car, I realized that I was to take my mom seriously. That man and his wife had been best friends with my parents since they were all young people. My mom went to high school with that guy's wife. The man was my dad's poker buddy. As I grew older, I realized my mom wasn't trying to tell me whom and whom not to trust. She was telling me something more important. She was telling me not to put myself in positions where I could be harmed. Many people try to determine whether or not they can trust a particular person. But that is not the test, that is not the issue. Certain dangers can be avoided by avoiding the situation altogether. As in, do not get into a stranger's vehicle. Also, as women, be careful getting into any vehicle with a man or letting a man into your vehicle if you are alone even if you know the person.

Frightening. Perhaps you should speak to someone about this you know. You just may be the link to closing a cold case you know. They may have evidence that is sitting there that an alive person (as yourself) saying what you just said could be all that they need to finalize their case. You never know & sure it may seem what you know isn't really anything, , , , but it truly may be more than you realize. I mean think 🤔 of it, there are paths that can be followed by what you know already. You were in the hospital room next to this girl & hospitals keep records. Likely she turned up dead if this is truth as to what he was doing. Therefore in their database they may have her down as deceased right. Anyways what you know can you big deal I would definitely say something about it even though it's been a long time it's still matters. Thanks for sharing your story

I found it to be exciting when I heard that Robert Rhoades was arrested for sexual assault in my state. I found out Casa Grande was 68-69 miles from Tucson. The investigation, carried out by several agents in various states, was absorbing. These men related their involvement in a matter-of-fact style which must have been difficult considering what Rhoades was accused of doing to his victims. They were truly dedicated to obtaining the evidence they needed to bring this remorseless killer to trial. I have seen several people such as Elizabeth Yardley, and Geoffrey Wansell on other videos and am impressed with their demeanor. This is why I watch these videos on true crime, to see how detectives ferret out what they need to bring criminals to trial and be found guilty of their crimes.
