I think she truly thought he was innocent until the evidence became overwhelming...and like Ann Rule, she eventually accepted that he was guilty. 

There are numerous accounts from women who were approached by him and lived, that he definitely gave off a creepy vibe, not a charming and debonair one! One woman who danced with him at Sherrod’s nightclub on the night of the Chi Omega murders said “I think I just danced with Jack the Ripper!” Another said he was just

I agree!  I read one article that said whatever is messed up in serial killers begins about age 5.  Not sure if true, but one good thing about the series is in Episode 1 when it goes back to his childhood and says he was up to creepy stuff even then.  Setting “tiger traps” for girls in the woods, fantasizing about

Good point. There was no shortage of women who found him instantly creepy when they encountered him. I remember reading that someone who danced with him at Sherrod’s nightclub said “I think I just danced with Jack the Ripper!” earlier on the night of the Chi Omega attack...and that same night, someone described him

That reminds me of about 1971 when maxis were popular and the principal of our junior high tried to ban them, saying they were a fire hazard.  Maxis were fun!  They could have a bit of a sexy drape and didn’t have to billow out all over the place.  Some of that slinky 70's fabric was super-sexy no matter how long it

This dress right here, from 1973, was ruffly and ginghamy and as body-conscious as you could get:

The reason the FLDS of that particular group dress and wear their hair the way they do is because their (jailed) prophet, Warren Jeffs, dictates it.  Every detail of it, from what I understand.  

Anyone remember the smock tops of about 1973?  Oh man...men HATED those.  I heard the big boss where I worked yelling at my boss, “And if anyone comes in in one of those pregnant tops, send her home!”  

That was totally the point of the midi...wanna ogle me?  Nice try Buster!  

Yes, and that made the headlines for sure.  His victims were Filipina.  If anyone thinks they received less attention because they weren’t white, I think that is incorrect.  I remember the headlines about six inches high when that happened. 

If it helps any, the way I always heard this scary-story was a male victim and it was his arm hanging from the ceiling....

Yeah remember the dude who committed suicide after being suspected of the Anthrax attacks?  Bruce Ivins?  He was doing sort of the same thing...stalking a particular sorority. 

The stigma against using the word “girls” to refer to college-aged women hadn’t quite hit the mainstream yet by 1978. There was a call to use words like “chairperson” rather than “chairman,” but it wasn’t yet frowned upon that much to use the word “girls” as far as college-aged women. I was majoring in linguistics at

I was in college when both Ted Bundy and the Hillside Strangler were active. The Hillside Strangler actually got more attention at the time, because the call went out to start wearing shoes you could run away fast in, rather than the wooden platform heels that were popular at the time.

We all know that the danger in sending one with face in it is that it can be posted and sent elsewhere. 

“Vivacious” is a compliment guys sometimes use, and that quality can apparently go a long way toward enhancing someone’s desirability.  I’m the biggest dud on the planet, so I don’t have this quality, but I’m guessing it’s her adventurousness (she flies planes and owns a plane company, apparently) that trips his
