The family taunted by a sadistic killer (Part 1/2)

[@danrobinson572]

Caught me off guard with an episode on a Friday afternoon. I was expecting for a video on Saturday morning. But not complaining hahaha

[@PrincessHoneyBadger]

Adding "Part 1" and "Part 2" to these titles would be helpful. I was listening to part 2 and was extremely confused.

[@junederksen9205]

I can’t find part 2?!

[@jasonvanderklei2466]

hopefully you found it, if not the episode is titled "The cat and mouse chase to catch a serial killer" if you check out the thumbnail of the video it does say part one and part two but it would be nice to have it in the title haha.@@junederksen9205

[@loistohotelli]

@@junederksen9205Its the next video from this!

[@Cornwalls.best.doorway]

For Shari’s mum to hold out hope enough to prepare an overnight hospital bag is heartbreaking. The cruel, psychopathic manipulation Bell poured upon this family is gut wrenching.

[@JoJoZaka]

it was pretty obvious she was dead as soon as he talked about her soul. she was being delusional at that point to believe she would see her alive

[@Cornwalls.best.doorway]

@@JoJoZaka I agree. As a mother myself however I’m sure I’d be delusional too (I never want to find out!)

[@lapislazuli5035]

@JoJoZaka Sure, but in situations like this, blind hope is all you've got

[@jennifer60515]

@@JoJoZakaYou must not have kids. Any hope that your child was still alive would be held onto with everything you have.

[@thekiwiclipper1113]

Damn that was a crazy twist at the end

[@grumpyrhonda6709]

I'm sort of sad that the narrator is anonymous because there is a lot of praise coming from me for him. He reads so well, very clearly and it's paced just right. Kudos to you, anonymous narrator!

[@Cornwalls.best.doorway]

I know what you mean… but… I like the anonymity; I feel more drawn in to the case. Fab channel 🎉

[@nicoleono3981]

That's funny you commented about that because I've watched these videos for a couple years and just tonight noticed that lol

[@lapislazuli5035]

He and Chills should do an episode together, lol.

[@MissVanHelsing]

Wonder why he chose to stay anonymous?

[@justine_holloway]

I think it's AI narration

[@scratchking3205]

I live right down the road from where this happened. Still so eerie to think of it

[@huntlife]

What a despicable, ruthless psychopath.

[@calgal5752]

Despite the subject matter, I find the narrative so peaceful sounding. Am I the only one mesmerised by the coffee steam swirling?

[@141Lav]

I’m here everyday 😊. Catching up with all the Casefiles. I listen whilst dozing off and if I fall asleep I watch again earlier next evening. Perfect👌 Thank you for your very informative and high quality uploads Mr Casefile. 💯

[@blackkittens.]

Same here. That's what I do too !!

[@YouvebenHAD]

I love this channel as well. I literally go to sleep listening to his cases he covers. His accent is really cool and makes the case more serious.

[@MissVanHelsing]

I'm recovering from surgery and woke up to a new episode on Saturday morning instead of Saturday night here in Aus. Great timing! Hope you're all doing well out there everyone! ❤

[@brendaredmond4678]

I'm having a hip replacement on October 2nd. I hope your recovery is going well.

Outrageous! Just when my interest was piquing, you make it a 2 parter?!?! Luckily, I'm a fan of daytime drama & enjoy a good cliffhanger- I must know what happens! 🙂 Thanks for all your work.

[@COEXIST-ny4db]

Thank you!! GREAT CASE. So HORRIFIC! I can't even imagine being her family. So very sad. They're def in my thoughts and prayers. FOR SURE!!!

[@GTGDPUBLICAGENT]

Can you please do a podcast about the 3 missing persons from Sunshine Coast kenilworth Australia. Its rumoured that Derek Sam is the killer and knows of their bodies whereabouts. However, to this day, it still remains a mystery

[@joemc1960]

I remember this story from Forensics Files. Not sure I can get through it. It’s way too sad. And the killer is pure evil.

[@emma75]

I remember a lifetime movie about this case or whatever channel that made such movies, it disturbed me to no end, I was like 11 or 12 at the time...

[@jermainerobertson7824]

YESSS!! NEW EPISODE A DAY EARLY! AND A 2 PARTER!!

[@nicola4894]

Nice surprise with the early upload. Thanks u Casefile

[@chadczternastek]

I am super familiar with this case. I first seen it on Forensic Files to show how the FBI used the notepad indents in the writing to see the list of numbers. This was one case that was pure hardcore detective work and forensics. This one still resonates in my head. Listen to the actual calls it's so creepy and heart stopping terror. This case gives me goosebumps when you hear the killers voice calling that poor family taunting them, then when he gave those directions quick and they found the body it was just insane. Imagine the poor girl having to write that note knowing she was gonna be brutalized and killed. This guy had to be one of the true master demon. The evil is so deep.

[@richardcranium3579]

He received what he earned when he was put down through the death penalty. It’s a shame more states don’t deliver true justice.

[@scratchking3205]

​@richardcranium3579 Now some states just turn criminals back on the streets....it's a real shame.

[@3dogmom]

you “seen” it, did ya?! 😒

[@Happinosis]

What an awful thing for the family. Terrifying.

[@MR-pv7qg]

[@coreylevi2328]

I love casefile so much I'm familiar with this case and am still riveted and relieved you're going to expand my knowledge with next week's episode. Can't wait 😶‍🌫️

[@annberlin5811]

Dont ever go into a car even if they have a gun

[@conniepruitt3086]

My husband always says this too and even though your refusal may get you dead - going into a stranger's car will surely result in death .

[@user-mt4ku7jw1y]

​@@conniepruitt3086stupid hitchhikers

[@Aryasvitkona]

​@@conniepruitt3086yep. At least if you die where you stand, the perpetrator is much more likely to get caught. If you go to the second location, not only are you going to die anyway, but now the perpetrator has a much higher chance of getting away. To add to this, if you see a persons face when they're trying to SA/Kidnap/etc you the higher chance they have of not letting you live. Especially fight back then.

[@TJ-bn2cn]

This is a comment often used in these cases but have you ever thought that the victim may have no choice?? It’s not necessarily a knife or gun that’s the problem, it’s physical strength, brute force, being knocked out etc. By stating this comment you’re putting some onus on the victim and stating that they had some form of choice . This is an insulting naive comment!! 😡

[@annberlin5811]

@TJ-bn2cn angry much?

[@Sunflowers__5]

Oh my goodness!! So hard to wait to hear more until next week!!

[@sisterhoney61]

I remember this crime very well. I was in archaeology field school in Conway, SC. My best friend was in Columbia, SC at the time and I learned from her about what was going on back home. Once the bodies of Shari and Debra were found, SLED contacted our professor, Dr. Ted Rathbun, who was a forensic anthropologist. He helped to indentify the remains.

[@kjh6903]

I live in Conway and remember this sad story well . Just awful .

Your narrative and stories are excellent But can you add some visual aids,such as pictures,video,etc Just staring at a screen wh a title gets monotonous.Its good if youre just listening.

[@shrew6674]

this is very strange to listen to as a 17 year old also named Shari

"Disorientated" is not a word; It's disoriented.

You're wrong, use a dictionary. Both versions are correct.

[@Tina06019]

Probably a difference in American vs. Australian English usage.

[@JimMilton-ej6zi]

Usually with cases like this there are things that could've been done better or differently to ensure a safe return but in this case i think that the police really did go above and beyond when trying to locate the guy, but he just knew everything they were going to do.

[@736693]

If Larry didn’t call the Smith family, could he still have been caught? Would he have gotten to Dawn instead of Debra?

[@missk8tie]

Their big break was the impression of the phone number on Sherri's letter. If he hadn't let her write that letter and sent it, he might not have been caught.

[@736693]

The police were checking the license plates of those who passed by Shari’s gravesite during the funeral or memorial service. Maybe Larry still would have been caught. It just might have taken more time.

[@yeetnama9094]

Not trying to victim blame here, but Christian families REALLY need to use some damn common sense. I heard at the beginning that the parents would drag their beautiful, young, blonde haired, blue-eyed daughter along to the *JAILS* and sing hymnals to the inmates?!! WTF is wrong with them?? None of this is even Biblically called for or even necessary. STOP BEING FOOLISH AND RECKLESS with your most precious gift, ...your children!!

[@scratchking3205]

What does this have to do with this case? The killer had nothing to do with what you just said and what truly happened is you just wanted to take a jab a Christians ✝️. Smith had great faith and it's good she did. At best it gave her eternal life and at worst it gave her peace of mind.

Comparing the killer's murder times with bible sections: -3:28 PM | Galations 3:28 "There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for *you are all one in Christ Jesus.*" 3:10 AM | "Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come on the whole world to test the inhabitants of the earth." 4:58
