The Dark & Chilling Case Of Nora Fuller

[@wanladakong6212]

Donte H most reported crimes go unsolved and, if combined with estimates of unreported or misrepresented crimes, leaves one with feelings of insecurity. Hence movies and legal myths promote the impression that “good triumphs over evil” while the opposite is more generally the case.

It's always sad when they don't find the killer, another well researched segment.

[@Sayerdify]

My take on this is, Nora met Bennet-Hawkins while boarding with her friend. They began a relationship, though I don't think it was sexual. Maybe the promise of love and commitment once they move in together, but Nora and he would have to come up with a plan so she could leave home.But I think Bennet-Hawkins was actually grooming Nora and planning to pimp her, which is why he only needed one bed, one chair etc., he probably wanted the finer mattress because he hoped to have johns of substance. Once Nora left home thinking she and her new love would become a couple she was informed what her real purpose was and she didn't accept that. An argument ensued and out of fear, maybe Nora said she'd report him he strangled her. I would like to know what this man did for a living. He himself seemed quite well off. He went through a lot of trouble and expense to arrange all of this only to turn around and kill her. She was an investment.

[@audreymuzingo933]

Ha, you should look at employment classified ads in really old newspapers sometime. You will see ones seeking very specific identities -ages, genders and even races. In fact sometimes the employment section was divided WITH those factors as the column headings, so people could save money on their ads by not having to include the words, and people seeking jobs didn't need to read listings for ones they couldn't have. For the most part, it pertained to how much each identity and sub-identity was "worth" in the job market. Seeking a "young girl" would have simply meant that the employer wanted to pay very little, since females were "worth" less, and a young female would presumably have little or no paid experience (which if she had it, could use to get a higher-paying job). Seeing as how this story took place in San Francisco, there were probably ads seeking "young Chinese girl" for the very lowest-cost labor.

[@ashalon8729]

My guess is he skipped the country where his crime(s) weren't known. If so, he could have continued them elsewhere and no one would be the wiser.

I’m addicted to Brief case. The way he speaks tells a clear story and every detail comes to life. Thank you for your videos

[@BriefCaseOfficial]

Thanks :)

[@danithefiend6167]

I adore this channel!

[@BriefCaseOfficial]

Thankyou so much :)

[@Robosapien-jj1zy]

Thanks Brief case for another great one.

[@suemiller9842]

Thanks s much for another excellent story. My hope is that he was caught under another name and authorities did not link the two cases. Predators don't normally stop, if he got away with it once, he would keep on killing.

[@bobipapy2404]

Every word you say I hear very well and understand I m happy with you the narration is fantastic thank you again 😑🙏

[@my-mysknitsaloon]

Oh Nora oh little poor Nora...what did that Slizzy do do you...and somehow I believe that the killers wife was involved in one way or another...false mustaches and she washed his blood stained clothes .! ! ! Hope Nora R.I.P 🦋🌟💙

San Francisco was a very transient society at that time being a major sea port. It was a simple matter to use a different name in the city because most people weren’t there very long and could escape anytime onboard ships.

Thanks BC, always listen more than once and love to read all the comments. Good wishes 🙏🏼 ❤️ 🍀 🗺️ 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

I like when it's from the point of view of the victim, because when it's from the point of view of the killer some part of me hopes they'll get away with it. It's just when I hear about their childhood I start identifying with them. Sadly for this one, I really wanted him to be caught and he wasn't!

[@MichelleFaithLove]

I'm so happy to see your newest Brief Case. Always so well spoken and investigated. Thank you, I hope you and your family are safe and well in your part of the world. With Love and Gratitude. 👩🏽‍💻💋

[@diamondleigh7280]

I've seen many cases like this one of young girls being MURDERED back in this era.... Truly sad

[@719adriana]

Love the unsolved stories... I think this is great for your channel. 🤗

[@BriefCaseOfficial]

Thankyou so much :)

[@tomaaron6187]

Something is amiss in this story. This fellow seems more like a con man with things going on on the side rather than a murderer. Was he setting Nora up as A prostitute and wanting o sell her services to other gentleman? Something went wrong. He likely killed her but there’s a chance somebody he was associated with did the killing. He may have have been being killed himself and disposed of.

[@blaqsuga1]

Tom Aaron I was thinking the same thing. Much like the sex trafficking going on now. Poor girl😰

[@bootsnsaddle8289]

THANK YOU for sharing these FANTASTIC stories !!!!

[@BriefCaseOfficial]

Thanks for watching

[@elizabethtorres6069]

Lovely young woman, and all she wanted was to help her mom. The detectives were doing everything possible to track this man. For a moment it seemed they were close in finding him. This is not his first kill, he has been changing his appearance, residence and had the money to do so. Probably was married...🤔Hmm? Why wasn't his photograph circulated? Or mentioned in the Newspapers, his choice of cut of meat? This could have brought in more restaurant owners, and staff as eye witnesses to this case. Something is missing, besides the murderer. He got away too easily sir, someone helped him escape. Maybe someone assigned to the case knew him, and warned him. I hope and pray I'm wrong. Thank you for the case file sir. This is definitely a tragic story.

[@laramonroe3363]

What a sad story - and with such an ending! I am so glad that I am a woman living in this century. Back then women were so vulnerable.

[@StanTheObserver-lo8rx]

Plus...they think the killer committed suicide- had been an accountant for a newspaper, and poor Nora...no record of where she was buried exists.

[@akira_thequeen]

Thank you for this. I feel like I've been waiting forever for a new video 😅🤦‍♀️ this story was so interesting. Absolutely love this content! Such a huge fan xx

[@BriefCaseOfficial]

Thankyou so much :)

[@MarciaBaker1205]

Great case! That poor girl. It seems that people were despicable a century ago as now.

[@territimmerman140]

Well done!! I love unsolved mysteries as well as the ones you usually do.

[@ravenfox926]

Its my belief that the murdered had an obsession with the girl. So he wooed her, groomed her, rented, the room - furnished with the bed, mattress and sheets- specifically for the sole purpose of luring, violating and finally murdering poor Nora.

[@3frenchhens818]

Another good video. At that time, it was so easy for people to slip out of sight and become someone else. It's a credit to hard, old-fashioned police work that they got so much information. I enjoyed the photographs and newspaper illustrations. Even allowing for the changes after the 1906 earthquake, I've walked or ridden the bus past these locations for years. Still familiar looking.

[@auroramariealmeara8622]

Could he be a serial killer? Is it possible her friend told the police the name after it appeared in the paper. Maybe she was meeting a boy doesn't mean it was the same man. Sounds like a serial killer.

[@leannmeddings4068]

You just keep doing what you are doing. Doesn't matter if the case is solved or not, they are all very interesting and you do a great job presenting them! Thank you!

[@BriefCaseOfficial]

Thankyou

[@FailingArtist]

Ps. I looove how you guys with English accents say the word “property.” Especially when its the last word of the sentence. Don’t know why lol

[@emmamartin1448]

Thank you for the new stories and banging sound effect is not too loud.

[@cocojo242]

Just hope karma got him and that poor girl can rest in peace.

[@tinat7004]

As always, well done. I’m always thrilled when you have a new video out because I love the way they’re done.

[@BriefCaseOfficial]

Thank you so much :)
