He Lures Men to the Woods to Play his SICK GAME

Men started disappearing in the Ohio woods, and they had been going there following up on an advert on Craigslist to watch over a farm. When one man emerged, barely escaping with his life, the police went in. What they found were many graves, and one psychopath. But he did have help.

I saw another story on this case where Tim Kern’s sons were interviewed. They said that once when they were kids their dad was supposed to come visit them, but his car broke down. They were disappointed that they weren’t going to see him, but several hours later he showed up- on a bicycle! He borrowed one from a friend of his just so he could see his sons. I wanted everyone to know how much he truly loved his kids!

Can we take a moment to appreciate Scott Davis' bravery & cleverness, outwitting a man who had grown confident in his killing abilities & was in a location familiar to him? Scott had nerves of steel to lay low in an unknown location while losing blood from his wound, & then had the physical & mental strength to find a house amongst that wilderness during nightfall so he could survive & sound the alarm for others. I'm sure some of it was instinctual but it still is impressive & courageous. Good on you Scott. I wish you peace.

every murder case is tragic for the victims, but this one broke my heart in a particular way. Maybe because the men were just... so excited for their opportunity and filled with hope for their future, and then shot in the back of the head.

Think you might have that a little backwards, not making excuses but rather the poor upbringing in the first place, was the road to where this all ended. Many people get confused about that, think someone can just turn 18 and unlearn all the crap their parents filled their head with, but more often than not, turning 18 just means an additional threat of homelessness as a means of control, which many can escape by finding employment but cost of living went up more than minimum wage and many areas, pre-covid were short on livable wage paying jobs, especially if you're a fat lazy psycho-fvsk like our killer.

For those looking for jobs, some advice - if they offer to take you in their vehicle somewhere, decline, anything could happen, you could end up stranded, you could be taken advantage of, you could be attacked, point is something could happen to you and you’d have no escape. Ask if you can follow in your own vehicle (if you trust him/her enough to follow with your own vehicle), if he/she acts sketchy, tries to convince you to go in his/her car, gets aggro, then somethings immediately not right. Just don’t get into his/her car if he/she offers to take you somewhere, you dunno what kind of crazies you’ll come across in life.

[@indifference1]

That's good advice. Never trust anyone. Sometimes you can't even trust your family. I think enough of these stories have proven that. It's also not a bad idea to carry a gun. If the guy that got away had a gun, he could have saved the taxpayers a lot of money.

There was a man in Fort Meyers, FL. who preyed on homeless, down on their luck men. He offered to pay them for photographs taken in the woods with a little bondage involved. This man tied these poor guys to the trees and abused and tortured them, most died. No one knew these poor men ,they were transients. But the word got out on the street and he was ultimately caught and thrown in prison. The big question was and is, how many others had he killed? Really tragic story. Especially because alot of these guys come to Florida to escape the winter cold .

I felt the same way. I actually paused the video to look at each of the men and thought about what they had to be thinking when they each had responded to the ad, thinking they had found exactly what they were needing at that time in their lives. A job, housing, a little cash and a remote location. They had to be excited and relieved to have been selected. How incredibly terrifying that hundreds had replied to the ad. Knowing this streak only ended due to what could be the most lucky event in the most unlucky situation really can make you question fate.
