Cat And Mouse | FULL EPISODE | The FBI Files

The 1985 search for South Carolina serial killer Larry Gene Bell. Unravel the mystery alongside the FBI's greatest law enforcers and forensic scientists.
#TheFBIFiles #TrueCrime #Search
Season 2 Episode 3: Larry Gene Bell abducted, raped and murdered two young girls in South Carolina then taunted the family of one of the victims with phone calls as he obsessed about her sister. The FBI was able to identify Bell though a psychological profile and the impression of a phone number written on a page from the same pad he forced the girl to write a letter to her parents on.
The FBI Files is an American docudrama that takes a look behind the scenes of the Federal Bureau of Investigation's crime laboratory.
Real FBI cases are recounted through reenactments and interviews, due to the sensitive nature of the show, viewer discretion is advised.

[@chelseanicole1911]

Man, I didn't want to watch this at first because I have known the story from Forensic Files for years and it was one of the ones that haunted me. I'm so glad I did, though, because this is jam packed full of details I never heard of. I had never heard of Shari's sister baiting him like that. They are a strong family that belong to each other for sure.

Same here. When they said about Shari writing her last Will and testament and then casket closed. I've been haunted by it. I couldn't do it myself.

[@kiki29073]

They were. Unfortunately it tore Debra Mays apart. Her dad , which I knew died a sad broken man full of guilt. He vlamed himself for not being there ti save her or able to find her in time. Their family broke apart afterwards. His name was Sherwood. He died a few years ago.

I don't have a problem with the death penalty. That guy deserved it. He was unable to refrain from forcing himself upon others and couldn't live peacefully in society.

[@AikenCoGamecock]

I have no problem with it either. In fact, if this country would return to using the death penalty in all cold blooded murder cases and especially murders involving drugs, we would more than likely see a significate decrease in murders. But America is and has been far too soft on crime for a long time. Plus, prisoners are not really being rehabilitated when being sentenced to time in prison. For some, it's like a vacation. Crime and criminals responsible for the crime need to be punished severely!

[@kiki29073]

I was 15 years old when this happened. I am from South Carolina. I had been living in Oklahoma but came home to South Carolina for awhile when this happened. I knew Debra Mays family as a kid. And was reintroduced to her dad as an adult and living permanently back in South Carolina by then. He became a broken man and he died a few years ago a broken man. This destroyed their family and he spiraled into drugs and alcohol from guilt. The family was working class but, he was a master cabinet maker and mason. His last days he soent working on cars and doing odd jobs for just enough money to keep his habits up and minimal housing. Idk what happened with Debras Mother or other family members but, saw what this did to him. More than 2 lives were ended by Larry Gene Bell.

That's what I am saying! I have been demanding that law enforcement be accountable and help me find my own children, who I have not seen since October 2020!!! Yet there have been so many red flags, and so much harassment unwarranted and unjust by these dam neighbors that lived around me! They have no fucking clue about what's going on, cause it has nothing to do with them, unless it is something that happened that someone else is involved in, that I am not associated with! I get it now, it has been a set up, and staged this entire time, I guess because someone is bitter or angry about the fact that they didn't get away with something they did? I don't know, but you can't trust people, they are evil, and a grandpa isn't going to give a dam if his dam grandson who is as big as a grown man, rapes another girl!

Maybe he didn't act alone. Abducting someone in broad daylight would not only be hard but seriously risky without help(lookouts etc.). This kind of creeps me out and makes me think of two of John Gacys victims that survived saying there were other people with Gacy not to mention when Gacy was taken to the police station after being found out, his first question was "Who else do you have in there?" Most creepy was why it was never looked in to. About this case though, it could also just be a type of multiple personalities as another person commented.

In an episode of forensic files it was a male investigator who found the hidden numbers on the last will and testament. Wth

[@nickfranklin4295]

this is true

[@blacknight2149]

This guy was such a sicko-what demon possesses people like him to kill and taunt the victims so cruelly?

[@NathanChisholm041]

Pretty strong family! Cops did well too, I guess it gets personal after a while even if they say it doesn't!

profiler: he have a electric like voice and work on a electric shop wtf

[@AxxinTheSupernova]

It's sad to see. So many cameras out in places now. They might have gotten his plates from the pay phone call. Times have changed

[@emekabekeboh]

My thought is; it would be better if the local police and FBI could dispatch surveillances in pay phones around the area where a kidnapping crime is committed especially if the kidnapper promises to call back... They might get lucky. I'm always watching from Nigeria.

I know most of Americans are religious but how can you forgive a person who killed and tortured your child . Where i came from he will be assassinated by hitman or by family members itself . Mabye it is wrong but for me that is justice

[@falcon759]

"Forgiveness" is something in your heart. "Justice" is left to government, which gets its authority from God. You are never to take the law into your own hands.

Imagine that you look from the window and you see your daughter is pulling into the drive way then minutes later she is gone😢

[@cyndifoore7743]

I admire John Douglas so much. I read his book ‘Mind Hunter’, it is excellent and if you’re into profiling and how it began you must read it.

Hit different when you from south Carolina 😢😭😢😭😢😭

[@melissameyers1869]

Sure does

[@antonioraphael7614]

I have watched these shows and read crime stories since I can remember, but as a father of 2 daughters I can say that me and my wife would never have been so kind to him as Shari's mother was, I would have made it my business to have turned up to meet him in jail everyday to interrogate him and make sure he never forgot what he did until his dying breath, that said, much love and peace to both those families BTW, Shari's sister Dawn entered the South Carolina Pageant 1987 and won, that must have been so hard for her, she has a great operatic voice though

Every Breath You Take was played while Dawn Elizabeth Smith walked on stage during the preliminary evening gown round for Miss America in 1986.
