When I was a baby, my parents lived in a house in Williamsburg that they got a very eerie vibe from, but they were young with little money and it was cheap. Several creepy events occurred and they got such a bad feeling from the upstairs in general that they never went up there, going as far as to put a blanket up over the doorway to avoid having to look up the stairs. Years later when we moved out they found out that a previous owner was one of the girls murdered along the parkway. Freaky

[@micheleshively8557]

Creepy 😢

[@thing_under_the_stairs]

That's why it was cheap! I always used to bug my stepdad, who was a real estate appraiser, to let me in on all the properties with (ahem) interesting histories in our city in the hopes of finding a great deal if one was on sale.

This case is a great example why investigative techniques need to have firm science behind it. Wilmer was taken out of consideration as a suspect based on polygraph which has bad science behind it only to later attached by DNA evidence.

Precisely. Polygraph are only useful as a tool for gaining answers pre and post test.

[@pandoxvideos]

That was the initial working police theory, and it’s covered again at the end of the video

[@JayyJay92]

@@pandoxvideos right but I personally believe every set of murders was a different suspect. I don’t think they’re connected at all. Great video btw.

[@thing_under_the_stairs]

There's a theory that Rex Heuerman, who's been arrested as the Long Island Serial Killer, may have committed some of these murders, and/or possibly some others in the area not mentioned in this video. His mother lived nearby, he drove through the area frequently, was an experienced hunter, and highly resembled a suspect sketch from a similar crime. Considering that he's a known serial killer, I'm not going to write it off as impossible.

There’s three options. Fight, flight, or freeze. It’s not unlikely that two victims might just “freeze” and comply. Whether that’s by force, threat, or just separating them. It’s not impossible at all

I'm a william & mary alum (class of 2019 go tribe). between the (at the time) totally unsolved colonial parkway murders & john hinckley jr. being released straight into williamsburg from the psych ward 2 weeks into my sophomore year .... every time we'd drive down to college creek beach (literally 200ft off colonial parkway) we'd always go with a car full of people and be back on campus well before dark . everyone kind of joked about it but the fact that the murderer was still out there and still unknown was actually kind of scary

polygraph tests do not hold up in court, why are they still being done?

[@nevadatan7323]

It's a tool for interrogation. They want to see if you're willing to co-operate and volunteer to take the test, or if you are being evasive. It's also useful to establish answers in the pre and post test questions. It's a psychological manipulation tactic of sorts, moreso than any actual physical detection of lies

[@ballistics343]

Grew up around there in the 00s - never actually heard the details! Common wisdom in the area was that it had probably been a cop/impersonator, so we were still to never pull over on the parkway at night if a cop/fed lit you up. Hazards on, 25mph, cruise until you get off the parkway and pull over in a lit parking lot. Never had to test, but I heard it from so many people once I started driving that I have to assume even the parkway police knew people would do it.
