I'm just updating the info on here...
Wip Kitten Amanda » Unsolved Serial Killings of Texas I-45:
Now, here are some
really scary "facts" that I've found out this week:
1. It's
NOT JUST I-45: There is an area from I-45 in Houston, Texas to Shreveport, Louisiana known as the "
Dead Zone". Kinda like a "Bermuda Triangle". Girls go missing, only to be found dead (If the are found at all) along the side of highways:
'c r i m e - t i m e' a real DEAD-ZONE written by- tomevansIt's also has been called "
The Tri-County Murders":
Louisiana Missing Person Kristi O'Pry, Shreveport 1996,
Missing Person Kimberly Norwood; Hallsville, TX 1989,
Missing Kelly Dae Wilson From Gilmer TexasOther names that these murders have been called are: I-45 Corridor, The Killing Corridor, America's Highway to Hell, The Killing Fields:
Serial Killers, Murders and Crimes of Passion,
First Place Division 9 News Writing2. The F.B.I. has
NO OFFICIAL INVESTIGATION into a connection of these murders:
Robert L. Davis, an author and
former police officer wrote the F.B.I earlier this year asking them for information about the killings. Exercised his right as an American citizen under "The Freedom of Information Act". Here was the response:
" To promptly respond to requests, we concentrate on identifying the main files in the central records system at FBI Headquarters. No records responsive to your FOIPA request were located by a search of the automated induces".
They pretty much told him that they had
NEVER HEAR OF THE KILLINGS! Meaning, the F.B.I. isn't even looking into the
possibility that there is a Serial Killer "working" in our area:
FBI contacted me in response to I-45 serial killer in Texas! (article) by Robert L. Davis on AuthorsDen3. The I-45 Killer(s) is even listed as an
Urban Legend:

The Texas EquuSearch Mounted Search And Recovery Team founder,
Tim Miller, is the father of one of the "
Killing Field" victims,
Laura Lynn Miller.
5. Are the killing
still going on?

FIVE KILLERS: Unsolved Serial Killings; Linking The I-45 KillingsFBI profiler Mark Young at one time stated that there were at least four or five killers that are working or had worked the I-45 corridor. Certainly a case could be made that there are more than that, including killers that only claimed a single victim. Few cases can be definitively linked, and the method of abduction, cause of death, and type of dumping ground often varies wildly across the board. Conversely, it is possible that only a couple of serial slayers are responsible and are changing their M.O.'s to make the pieces of this puzzle as difficult as possible to put together. It has to be considered highly unusual for so many 'low-risk' victims to be murdered or missing over such a relatively small geographic area without at least a couple of serial murderers being responsible for the bulk of the slayings.
(Just by looking over the murders over the last few days, I saw how this may really be true!)
8. Was it a "
COP"? Almost thirty years later, witness have came forward saying they saw a "security guard". Many have thought that was what happen to Jessica Cain:
