The Hammer Man Strikes: Harvey Carignan's Brutal Legacy

In this chilling episode, we delve into the horrific crimes of Harvey Louis Carignan, infamously known as "The Hammer Man," "The Hitcher," and "The Want Ad Killer." Born in Fargo, North Dakota, in 1927, Carignan's early life was marred by abuse, but...

In this chilling episode, we delve into the horrific crimes of Harvey Louis Carignan, infamously known as "The Hammer Man," "The Hitcher," and "The Want Ad Killer." Born in Fargo, North Dakota, in 1927, Carignan's early life was marred by abuse, but it’s his gruesome actions in adulthood that cement his place in the annals of true crime. 

Though many times the background of a killer can be informative when trying to analyze and perhaps learn to better understand the motivation for their brutal crimes, we won’t dwell on his early years. Instead opting to skip ahead to his adulthood. Some people do foolish things amidst a midlife crisis, Carignan embarked on a spree of sadistic violence spanning multiple states over numerous years. Starting with the disappearance of 15-year-old Kathy Miller in 1973, we unravel a series of brutal attacks that terrorized the Pacific Northwest and beyond.

We explore Carignan’s early crimes - the heinous acts, his evasion of justice, and the ultimate downfall that led to nearly five decades behind bars. Join us as we piece together the timeline of terror, revealing the twisted mind of a violent, and often times bizarrely unpredictable man.

They found maps of various states as well as a clump of hair made up of a composite of several

2
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:17,240
different individuals, which is super gross. The maps had several locations circled through

3
00:00:17,240 --> 00:00:24,840
out multiple states. One of which was where Kathy Sue Miller was discovered in Washington,

4
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:31,440
while yet another circled location was where Laura Leslie Brock had been found dead, also in

5
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:32,440
Washington state.

6
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:47,880
Hi, Cassie. Hi, Caitlyn. Hi, creepy people. Oh, hello. Hello. If you're new to our creepy

7
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:54,360
corner of the world, this is PNW Haunts and Homicides, where we chat about true crime, the paranormal,

8
00:00:54,360 --> 00:01:02,040
all things creepy in the Pacific Northwest. We also do a tarot reading at the end of every episode

9
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:10,440
for a little bit of deeper insight into our topic. Hmm, sister groan if you're into that. Yes, please.

10
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:20,280
Yes. This is I'm guessing going to be a very long episode because I have like 90 million pages

11
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:27,640
of notes. So, pretty sure you said that on your last episode. Yeah, no, it was kind of a long episode.

12
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:36,280
Are you calling me a liar? No, I'm just saying. Why do you got to keep doing this to us? I don't know,

13
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:40,840
and it could have been so much worse because I was researching something else in the last couple of days.

14
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:47,640
And even though I had a couple of things that were closer to completion, I thought, no, no, no.

15
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:55,720
Let's start from scratch. And it turned out that was a big, ball of yarn. I wasn't ready to unravel all

16
00:01:55,720 --> 00:02:05,240
that. Oh, yeah. So, there we are. This was a case that was like, comparatively about, you know, the 80,

17
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:13,800
90% done. So we're wrapping her up. I was wanting to switch up the order. And I like to kind of

18
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:20,680
try to do different types of cases and just, you know, give people a little variety. This is

19
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:31,880
different than the last one that I did. And it is, um, while I get, I'll just tell you, shall I?

20
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:41,960
Is it still sad? No, this one's so happy at the very end. Okay. So wait for it.

21
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:54,920
Wait for it. Wait for it. Okay. Harvey Louis Carignan was born May 18th, 1927 in Fargo, North Dakota.

22
00:02:54,920 --> 00:02:56,200
Oh, yeah.

23
00:02:56,200 --> 00:03:04,840
Beyond that, we're not going to dwell on his seemingly awful childhood much because to be frank,

24
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:09,720
including a bunch of his biographical data, really eats into our time. And it's

25
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:15,960
feist to say that's already so much to cover. There's so much to cover in this case.

26
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:24,520
I want to know more about Fargo. No, I don't think you do. I, well, it gets a little like Fargo's

27
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:32,600
movie. He's recounted bullying, physical and sexual abuse that occurred throughout his childhood.

28
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:39,080
And while it might inform us about his psyche, it obviously isn't going to excuse a single one of

29
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:44,520
the absolutely horrendous crimes that he committed throughout his life.

30
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:54,280
Harvey has been known as the Hammerman, the Hitcher, and the Want Add Killer at various times.

31
00:03:54,280 --> 00:04:01,320
I don't want the Hammerman. It is not Hammertime. No, it is in fact never Hammertime.

32
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:09,080
But all of these aliases or monocurs have one thing in common. They denote an evil,

33
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:18,280
misogynistic and particularly sadistic serial killer. We're not going chronological to start with.

34
00:04:18,280 --> 00:04:25,400
So hopefully everybody can get on board with moving around a little bit. Where's that white board?

35
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:30,360
I know. We need a white board. In fact, we're going to start around the time that he

36
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:36,680
should have probably been buying a sports car or whatever else men do when they're having a midlife

37
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:43,320
crisis, like having a fair or dating ridiculously young women, I guess.

38
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:47,560
Dying their mustaches. Yes, exactly. Yeah, see, she gets it.

39
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:52,920
I'm basing that on my extensive romcom research, of course.

40
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:57,320
Everything that would piss katherine heigl off essentially.

41
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:05,960
Never do that. Never do that. Anyway, we're starting off at a period of time when Harvey was already in

42
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:13,000
his mid 40s. Rather than the gross aforementioned things that he could have done at the time,

43
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:20,760
he was committing a heinous crime. One of many that he is known to or suspected to have committed

44
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:28,280
for which he would never receive a conviction. Oh, great. Yeah, so

45
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:39,960
cheerful. In Seattle on Wednesday, May 2nd of 1973, single mother Mrs. Miller was concerned about

46
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:48,840
her only child as the evening hours unfurled. Kathy was 15 years old about to turn 16 in less than a month.

47
00:05:48,840 --> 00:05:54,760
She had a boyfriend and they had the most wholesome relationship.

48
00:05:55,880 --> 00:06:01,240
She was a good girl who had rarely, if ever, given her mother cause for concern.

49
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:08,200
By 7pm, Kathy's mother began calling around to her friends to try to locate her daughter.

50
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:15,560
The mother and daughter had a rare disagreement recently as Kathy had wanted to take on a summer job.

51
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:25,080
She found an ad looking for a gas station attendant, which is not a job that I would

52
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:33,080
feel comfortable taking myself as an adult woman or certainly would not want my teenage daughter to

53
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:41,000
have. Yeah. When Kathy called about the position, the man stated that he needed to fill the position.

54
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:49,800
ASAP. Hmm. Her mother wouldn't be able to make arrangements to take her to meet the man and person

55
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:55,560
at the gas station for an interview and to fill out all the necessary paperwork right then and there.

56
00:06:55,560 --> 00:07:04,280
Cause that's kind of a lot. Yeah. The man offered to pick her up at an intersection nearby her

57
00:07:04,280 --> 00:07:12,520
home after school. But of course, Kathy's mother said, oh, he'll know. That's weird. Yeah, that is weird.

58
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:19,800
At the thought of their squabble, she began searching for the ad and quickly located it.

59
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:28,120
She called the number listed for the gas station and inquired whether Kathy had in fact done this despite

60
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:37,400
her disapproval. Uh oh. Oh. The man stated that he had driven to the agreed upon spot, but the

61
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:45,480
Kathy never showed. So he took off after a few minutes. Totally a believable story. Like what?

62
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:54,040
When her mother speaks to Kathy's boyfriend, he is apprehensive as he knows that she wasn't supposed

63
00:07:54,040 --> 00:08:02,360
to take the appointment, but admits that he did wait with Kathy for the man to show up. Oh no. Yep.

64
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:10,040
He had a paper route and after waiting a while for the pickup, he had to take off to begin his afternoon

65
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:15,880
route, which I don't feel like you hear very much about people having an afternoon paper route.

66
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:22,280
Yeah, it's kind of weird. Is that a morning thing? Yeah, what kind of afternoon papers? Yeah, it's weird.

67
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:27,640
I don't know. That just struck me as like, oh, but obviously it's true and there's so whole

68
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:36,120
sum. He's not lying about his paper route, but he told Kathy she should go back home. He's like,

69
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:42,760
I don't think this guy's showing up. But of course, when he left, she was still standing there waiting

70
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:50,040
in hopes that the man would show up. Obviously, he's also now incredibly concerned about Kathy not having

71
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:59,240
returned home yet. Yeah. So Kathy's mom calls Seattle PD to report her daughter missing.

72
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:05,880
It wasn't well documented what action might have been taken in regards to the reported

73
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:12,360
disappearance that evening, but they did at least accept the report. Well, it's good. Yeah,

74
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:19,960
that is something. Did they say that she just ran away? I don't think that, you know,

75
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:24,440
interestingly enough, this is one of those cases where we're, I don't think we're going to get that

76
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:31,800
line classic, though it may be the next morning, the case is handed off to detectives, Dwayne

77
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:38,760
Holman and William Bowman. They follow up with Mrs Miller because their concern, the situation

78
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:46,440
seems suspicious as well, which I think probably had a lot to do with the details of like where she was

79
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:55,160
more than likely going. The boyfriend confirmed. And obviously, she hasn't come home overnight.

80
00:09:55,160 --> 00:10:01,480
So that's more concerning. They go out to the gas station to interview the man

81
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:13,880
and are greeted by a man who is six two around 200 pounds. And his name is Harvey Louis Carignan.

82
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:22,680
He's the owner of the business. And it's a very successful local gas station. He employs a number

83
00:10:22,680 --> 00:10:32,440
of teenagers in the area, which like, it was the 70s, but how are so many people like, okay,

84
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:39,720
with their kids like working at gas station shops? You know, I just, I don't know. I don't know. I can't,

85
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:46,600
I don't know. It was a simpler time. Yeah. It's a very successful gas station, though. Like I said,

86
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:56,840
Ann Bruehl, a famous true crime writer, ever heard of her maybe once. Yeah. She described Harvey as

87
00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:05,080
a huge man with hands like, "Hams." Hands like, "Hams?" Hands like, "Hams." Like, "Hams."

88
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:14,840
And a ham like a honey-baked ham. Ham hands. A brow that resembled that of a latter day,

89
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:22,600
crow magnum man. I don't know about this. I will show you some pictures later. And, you know,

90
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:30,360
stunningly accurate in at least one respect for sure. So hopefully that paints a little bit of a

91
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:38,680
picture for you. You're welcome. Ham hands for sure. Ham hands. Yeah. Very descriptive. Yeah. Very big

92
00:11:38,680 --> 00:11:45,720
hands. Basically like my arch nemesis when it comes to hands. I think it's a meaty mitts on them.

93
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:55,000
Yeah, meaty mitts, a way like that. He tells officers that he had wanted to hire a teenage boy,

94
00:11:55,000 --> 00:12:01,960
but he'd been open to interviewing and hiring Kathy. He reiterated the same story that he told Kathy's

95
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:11,800
mother. The man seems very obviously anxious in officer's presence. Aside from a stress sweat,

96
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:19,880
he also appears agitated by some of their questions. There were no witnesses stating that they saw

97
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:27,320
Kathy with this man. So there's nothing beyond their previously made plans to tie him to her

98
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:37,080
disappearance specifically. So not a lot to go on, but they're like, "Maspidy senses." You know? Yeah.

99
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:43,640
And a review of his criminal history does not take away from their suspicion.

100
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:52,440
He had a record dating back to the late 1940s when he was in his early 20s when he was enlisted in

101
00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:59,720
the army. He was stationed at Fort Richardson in Anchorage, Alaska during this time.

102
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:11,720
On July 31st, 1949, a woman named Laura Schowalter, who was in her late 50s, was walking home from

103
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:18,920
the theater. Sadly, she never made it. Hopefully that was a really good movie that she saw that night.

104
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:27,000
I hope so. When her body was discovered, it appeared that she had died as a result of several blows to

105
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:35,720
her head. There was an eyewitness who'd stated he'd seen her in the very same spot where her body was

106
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:45,720
discovered the next morning. Only that evening, she hadn't been alone. He said there was a man with

107
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:52,040
her and they appeared to have been romantically or physically engaged. Oh. He didn't think much more

108
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:59,000
of it just assuming that the pair had been on the date. Yeah. I heard some different accounts that

109
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:09,480
indicated that maybe he shouted at the guy like, "Hey, you know, get a room." But it doesn't

110
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:16,840
appear that he intervened in any significant way. And how would you know? Yeah. Exactly.

111
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:26,520
The witness was able to provide a general description of the man. So authorities now knew that he was a

112
00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:35,320
white man over six feet tall. Apparently that height would have been more remarkable back in the 70s.

113
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:41,880
Like people are taller nowadays and they went back then, I guess. He was a soldier likely in his early

114
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:53,560
20s with mutton chops. So he's got meaty mits and mutton chops. Nice. Yeah. The eyewitness was later able to

115
00:14:53,560 --> 00:15:03,480
identify the man in a lineup. Harvey Louis Carignan. Oh. However, beyond that, they didn't have much to

116
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:11,640
be able to tie him to that crime. So I think it's not nothing, right? They did see this man with the

117
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:19,960
woman who is now super not alive. In the same place. Yes. That's pretty good. I feel like that's

118
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:26,760
significant. It's pretty circumstantial, maybe overall, but come on. Come on. Come on.

119
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:40,040
Then on September 16, 1949, there was the attempted sexual assault of a woman who is referred to

120
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:49,240
alternately in source material as either Dorcas Callan or Christine Norton. This is where it got

121
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:58,360
really weird. I wasn't able to determine why, but newspapers dating back to that time versus more

122
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:06,280
modern source material gave different names. It's possible that the victim had wished to remain

123
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:13,400
anonymous and so an alias was adopted. In any case, this time the victim was able to escape her

124
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:20,520
attacker and she went to the police to report the assault. She told them that she was attacked by

125
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:27,560
a drunken sailor. When she rejected the soldiers off-putting advances, that's when the encounter

126
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:35,000
becomes a violent attack. This second victim was able to identify him in a lineup in addition to

127
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:41,880
the witness that placed Harvey with Laura at the scene of that crime, strengthening the case

128
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:49,720
against Harvey. Wow. Yes. Now we have a surviving witness who was herself attacked.

129
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:58,600
By December 1949, he was found guilty of the murder of his first victim, Laura Showalter,

130
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:06,840
and was sentenced to death by hanging. Jesus Christ. Alaska did not fuck around. They did not suffer

131
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:13,160
fools. I guess they didn't realize that that was still a thing. Yeah. That's, you know, my

132
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:18,520
handful of years after World War II. Yeah. I just think of it like, you know, way back in the

133
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:24,760
pilgrim days, you know, the 1800s. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. For sure. Oh. Yeah.

134
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:33,960
An announcement was made that he was to be executed on the morning of March 3rd, 1950. Spoiler alert.

135
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:42,920
He was not obviously. We've already talked about one crime. He committed well over two decades later.

136
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:49,160
Just in case that got lost for anyone. Maybe he's Jesus. We came back to that. Yeah. We don't have

137
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:57,560
the whiteboard. I'm just trying to help the date, time, and location of his scheduled execution were

138
00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:05,960
all provided to the public, which I have some feelings and thoughts about, but we're not really here for

139
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:12,840
that. Still like public like out in the town square. I think a lot of executions were still done

140
00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:23,240
publicly. I think in many cases, we didn't see that really fully go away until like, let's just say

141
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:33,800
this, our parents were alive. Prior to sentencing, his defense council had requested a new trial. Of course,

142
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:41,320
this request was denied by the judge who in turn sentenced him to death. His defense had cited

143
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:48,200
11 different grounds for the request, including that he had been promised that he would not be put to

144
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:58,040
death if he provided a confession. In 1951, he was granted a new trial on the grounds of his confession

145
00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:04,680
having been improperly obtained. Because they were like, no, no, no, we don't kill people that

146
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:11,560
confess and then they were like, just kidding, switch a rule. Can't do that, man. No, you surely can't.

147
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:18,840
Don't call me surely. The Supreme Court overturned his death sentence due to a violation of the

148
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:29,480
McNabb rule, resulting in a sentence of 15 years from death to 15 years. 15 years. But then they did do

149
00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:39,080
something that felt like kind of on the level of harshness of death. He was then transferred to

150
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:47,960
Alcatraz in 1952. Oh, yeah. That's funny. I just took the book down and replaced it with another book.

151
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:52,040
That's right. Gosh, I noticed that and I was like, she's going to need a book. I'll put it back up.

152
00:19:52,040 --> 00:20:01,640
I don't know. Interesting. Yeah. From there, he would be paroled in 1960, after serving less than a decade

153
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:08,440
of his 15 year sentence. Wow. Just about half of it. I don't know how you go from death to that.

154
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:14,760
I just- Death to 15 years and then maybe you serve like eight. Why? Where did the death thing go?

155
00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:21,560
I mean, the death thing when they took that off the table because they did come about that sentence

156
00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:28,360
and the confession in a not super legal and ethical way. But I mean, I get that. But like, what happened

157
00:20:28,360 --> 00:20:38,120
to life? Yeah. I mean, it went from the death sentence to 15 years then to okay, just kidding,

158
00:20:38,120 --> 00:20:42,920
you can go now after that. Yeah. You were just about to kill this dude forever and ever and ever,

159
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:49,160
but then you let him out in eight years. Death is forever. I don't. Yeah. I don't. I'm not a fan.

160
00:20:50,360 --> 00:20:59,080
Following his parole, he moved to Minnesota. Minnesota. It's several years later before Harvey

161
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:07,480
is entangled in the legal system again. Like not that many. You know? Actually, like not

162
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:13,400
anymore years. It's literally in 1960. Kind of like they should have kept him in prison. Yeah.

163
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:22,280
Yeah. No. I mean, he immediately turns around and was like, "JK, guys, I'm back." On August 5th,

164
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:31,000
1960, he was arrested for burglary, assault, and attempt rape. But this time, he's in his early 30s.

165
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:38,680
So, you know, now we're going chronologically. Okay. From here forward, mostly, I think.

166
00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:46,120
He was convicted of the charges and through some sort of sorcery, I assume of the Black Magic

167
00:21:46,120 --> 00:21:52,920
Variety. He was sentenced to just two and a half years. Did they know that he was in jail before

168
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:58,040
and like was about to be hung for murder? I don't think so. I think that was part of the point of

169
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:04,440
moving across the country. They just, at that point in history, because jurisdictions didn't really

170
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:10,600
have like shared records. They don't... There's no like database, you know what I mean? Google it.

171
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:19,240
Yeah. Well, they weren't real big on Google in Back then Man. Yeah. So, also two and a half years,

172
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:26,680
again, bringing your attention to the Black Magic. That is, burglary, assault, and attempted rape and

173
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:35,400
only being sentenced to two and a half years. I don't follow. Yeah. He would serve two thousand

174
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:42,840
86 days in federal prison in Levenworth, Kansas, which Levenworth, I think, is you like, you probably

175
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:48,440
don't really want to hang out there. But... He's been some places, man. Sure has. This man is seeing

176
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:56,360
the world, mostly just here in the States and mostly prisons. Prison's of the world.

177
00:22:56,360 --> 00:23:06,200
United States. When he was again paroled because, of course, he was, he then moved to Seattle. Great.

178
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:16,520
Predictively, Harvey had hardly changed his ways. Made clear when he was sentenced to 15 years

179
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:24,680
at the Walla Walla prison in Washington State, or second degree burglary. Wow. 15 years from...

180
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:32,200
They got there. They got their sentencing. Oh, crazy. It is all over the board. We need the white board

181
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:40,600
because it's all over the board. While incarcerated, he earned his GED and even took some college courses.

182
00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:49,800
Cassie, would you care to learn more about what he was learning? I mean, do I have to? Well, his course

183
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:57,400
is included criminal psychology. Of course they did. Because of course. He was released on parole in

184
00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:10,600
1968 after serving about four years. Of the 15? Of the 15. Yep. From there, he met Sheila Moran.

185
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:16,120
Quickly moving in with her and her daughter prior to the pair tying the knot.

186
00:24:16,120 --> 00:24:25,400
Oh. Though the marriage did not last, after he was jailed again in 1969 for another parole violation,

187
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:30,760
Sheila divorced him. The filing cited physical abuse by her husband.

188
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:35,800
Thank goodness, Sheila. Is anyone surprised by this?

189
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:47,400
You have no idea. Thank goodness, Sheila. Okay. I'm going to tell you. This is not something that I

190
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:55,560
understand to have been included in the divorce filing. It was a little unclear to me as to when

191
00:24:55,560 --> 00:25:05,560
exactly this story was shared and recorded for all of our posterity. But at one point in the

192
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:13,160
marriage, he'd reportedly stated that he heard the voice of God telling him to attack Sheila with a

193
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:22,040
hammer. Dude, he'd intended to kill her because that's what happens when you attack someone with a

194
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:32,200
hammer. But the plan was thwarted when Harvey had a startling realization. He's crazy? Oh no, he's

195
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:39,400
never going to come around to that one. No. In the very moment that he was poised to attack,

196
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:48,360
it was actually his stepdaughter. He had apparently been silently surveilling from downstairs in the

197
00:25:48,360 --> 00:25:57,960
basement, clutching his hammer in his ham hands. God hadn't intended for him to kill her.

198
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:09,400
So thankfully, at least this one awful plan was abandoned. Okay. So freaking bizarre and alarming.

199
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:19,080
So he said that he was like about ready to go up the basement stairs presumably and attack who he

200
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:25,000
assumed was his wife. But he realized all of a sudden he's like those footsteps sound really light.

201
00:26:26,120 --> 00:26:34,600
Oh my god. And he was like, because they're a child. Wow. Well, fuck, I'm glad he didn't decide to kill

202
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:42,040
both of them. Yeah, I don't think the mom was actually even there. I think he thought it was his

203
00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:50,600
wife coming home, but it just was the stepdaughter. So lucky, lucky girl that day. Wow, wow, I'm going to

204
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:55,800
say in that he didn't like try to do it when the mom got home later. You know, like it, what made him

205
00:26:55,800 --> 00:27:04,280
just completely stop. Yeah. I. There are a few situations where there's really not a lot of rhyme or

206
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:16,040
reason. It just, I don't know. I'm the meme. Yeah. Of course, Harvey was not the type to be held down

207
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:23,640
by time in the pen or failed relationships. Shortly after his release following the parole violation

208
00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:29,160
as the 1960s came to an end, he met and married another woman.

209
00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:40,600
Her name was Alice Johnson and she had two children, a boy and a girl ages 11 and 14 respectively.

210
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:49,800
Oh, I'm worried about them all. Yep. In the early 70s, it seems like he kept a slightly lower criminal

211
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:59,000
profile for a second. His main vice appeared to be speeding, but appearances aren't everything, of course.

212
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:10,120
In October of 1972, Laura Leslie Brock of Bellingham went missing. When she was later discovered,

213
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:16,680
she was completely nude with the exception of Navy socks in the Oak Harbor area.

214
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:25,640
Her cause of death was declared as multiple blows to her head. No, no one does.

215
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:33,560
Laura had been a sophomore at Western Washington State College. She had been raped and had been

216
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:40,680
beaten and bludgeoned with an unidentified object. At the boarding house where she was living,

217
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:46,280
she'd left a note stating that she planned to visit the beach. Her grandmother confirmed that

218
00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:54,040
it was Laura's intention to hitchhike despite her cautioning against it. She was traveling from

219
00:28:54,040 --> 00:29:03,080
Bellingham to the Olympic Peninsula. Harvey has never been charged in connection with Laura's

220
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:11,320
murder. In fact, no one ever has. But he received a speeding ticket in the area during the period of

221
00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:18,920
time that she went missing. Oh my god. It's just like a casual two murders now that he's not officially

222
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:24,360
been charged with. Just just just just the two. But he was right there in the area. Yeah, just hanging

223
00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:33,160
out doing ham-hand stuff. Oh god. Yeah, and then there was the fact that there was a witness that

224
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:40,120
stated they saw her get into a vehicle matching the description of Harvey's very unique camper truck,

225
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:49,640
which we will come back to because it is so unique. So what's the problem? That's like he was there

226
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:57,080
some time. Where's the lineup? I mean, put that bitch in another lineup. All that means is that she got

227
00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:03,080
into his truck though. In theory, I mean, again, you got to have some sort of evidence tying him

228
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:10,920
not just to the victim, but to the crime itself. Did they search the truck? They're going to conduct

229
00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:21,080
a search of his truck. Not right now. Not right now, but they will. It will happen.

230
00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:32,680
At some point, after it's been cleaned. Oh, well, he does get a cleaned more than once. For sure. Yes, yes.

231
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:42,120
We've got something we're really excited to share with you guys. Let's hear a few words from our new pod

232
00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:52,440
besties. Can you hear me? Good to have you back with us. I hope you don't mind that I am recording

233
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:58,920

234
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:06,600
people in your condition. My name is Owen von Sid. I am a reclamer. Do you know what that means? No?

235
00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:15,800
Well, I am sorry to inform you that you didn't make it. Please try to remain calm. The worst is over.

236
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:22,440
Nothing can hurt you, not ever again. But the thing that did this to you, it is still out there.

237
00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:30,680
That is what we do. I wake unfortunate souls, such as yourself. Hear their stories. Then my associates

238
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:39,880
and I see to it that whoever or whatever did this to you is dealt with. Now, let's begin. When you are

239
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:49,160
ready. Tell me, how did you die? Ghost Wax is an anthology horror podcast from far and tall

242
00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:13,160
Now, we are right back to where we started with Kathy. It was May of 1973 when Kathy went missing.

243
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:22,840
So, just to kind of wrap this up with a little low here. October 72, that's when Laura

244
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:33,080
goes missing and then her body is discovered. And then May of 1973 is when Kathy went missing.

245
00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:42,040
After a super-legit job interview and that's all there is to it.

246
00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:47,320
I don't believe you. Yeah, I wouldn't either.

247
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:55,560
Police informed Kathy's mother about the status of the investigation and their suspicions about

248
00:32:55,560 --> 00:33:03,160
the man who reportedly may have been the last person to see her daughter alive. Unfortunately,

249
00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:09,400
at this point, they don't have enough to arrest him. Really, they don't even have enough for a

250
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:16,680
search warrant at this point. Somehow? Because no one like saw him actually with her or did they?

251
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:27,720
No, nobody did really. Not at that point. She then received a call from a man who said he discovered

252
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:33,960
some schoolbooks in the parking lot of a business complex. He discovered that there was a name

253
00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:41,160
and phone number inside. He was attempting to return the books to the proper owner. So awesome.

254
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:48,680
So cute. When the books were turned over to the police, they attempted to lift fingerprints from

255
00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:57,480
them to try to drum up any possible new clues. Sadly, Kathy's body was discovered by two boys on a hike

256
00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:07,480
in the Tulalip reservation north of Everett, Washington. She had been wrapped in viscuine plastic.

257
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:15,320
What is that? Just like plastic wrap. It's kind of heavier duty. A lot of times people will put it down

258
00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:22,440
when they're doing various like home improvement projects. Okay. She'd been beaten with a heavy object,

259
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:31,400
leaving large holes in her skull. Some of them were roughly nickel sized, which is that's a lot of force.

260
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:39,800
Yeah. But that horrific discovery wasn't the only development in the case. A friend or acquaintance

261
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:47,160
of Harvey's reached out to law enforcement to inform them that he had given some viscuine to Harvey.

262
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:55,640
They asked for any of the role that he still had in his possession to try to match the cut edges of

263
00:34:55,640 --> 00:35:02,360
that sample to the piece that was wrapped around Kathy's body. A little bit of a reach probably,

264
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:06,200
but like, hey, that's like smart. Yeah, like I'll take what I can get.

265
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:15,960
Following this discovery, despite there not being an obvious match, they are able to obtain a search warrant.

266
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:24,200
Reportedly, witnesses saw a truck driving onto the reservation near the area where the body was discovered

267
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:33,800
and specifically on the date Kathy went missing. Also way more specifically, the vehicle was

268
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:42,840
described as a Chevrolet camper truck. It was yellow with black stripes and a silver canopy.

269
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:48,600
What's with the black and yellow like a DB-tuber? Wasn't his a raft? Oh yeah.

270
00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:54,760
Black and yellow too. Yeah, it was. What's with these like bright, obvious look at me.

271
00:35:54,760 --> 00:36:01,800
It's not great. It's not great because it's really attention-getting. This was also, I know you'll

272
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:09,160
be surprised to hear this, but it was a perfect match for Harvey's vehicle, but none of the witnesses

273
00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:17,160
were able to specifically identify the driver. So I guess our working theory is that now Harvey's

274
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:25,560
very, very unique vehicle could have been stolen and driven by someone else. Totally. Did he

275
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:31,560
report at missing or stolen? No, I don't think so. I feel like he might miss that if it were gone.

276
00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:41,880
I would think so. Yeah, where's my bumblebee? Kathy had never been fingerprinted. Unidentified

277
00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:46,600
prints were found inside his vehicle because you know they did go ahead and give it a little

278
00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:55,240
just a little looky-loo, but unfortunately they had no way to compare them to who they thought.

279
00:36:57,160 --> 00:37:04,440
So no fingerprints from Kathy. There are fingerprints in the truck, but they cannot match.

280
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:11,400
Why don't they have Kathy's fingerprints? She just was never fingerprinted. Why? I don't know.

281
00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:17,960
I don't know. And I think the condition of her body sadly did not make taking her fingerprints

282
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:26,920
after her body was recovered possible. That makes sense. So thankfully, a comparison of

283
00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:34,040
dental records proved successful and they had a match. So they were like, yeah, this is super

284
00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:41,240
duper Kathy. They just couldn't match the prints that were in the truck too Kathy. So that wasn't

285
00:37:41,240 --> 00:37:50,360
super helpful. Could they not like go to her room and take fingerprints? I mean, I guess they could have

286
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:58,440
tried that. Come on, let's go back in time. Let's try to rework this. Yeah. Yeah, that would be so cool.

287
00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:06,680
From that point on, whenever possible, they surveilled Harvey, hoping that he might return to the

288
00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:12,520
scene where her body had been discovered, which is not a bad theory because that's a thing that

289
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:20,040
does happen frequently in these cases, but he might know that because he studied criminal psychology.

290
00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:28,840
So of course, he wouldn't go back. I mean, or yeah, he didn't that we know of, but it's possible.

291
00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:39,480
I don't know. I don't know his life beyond these nine plus pages. Harvey's family meanwhile is being

292
00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:46,840
interviewed by law enforcement in the months that followed. His stepson went to live with his father

293
00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:54,360
reportedly due to physical abuse by Harvey. The stepdaughter didn't seem to like or feel comfortable with

294
00:38:54,360 --> 00:39:03,960
him. Weird. There may have been some accusations at one point or another about some sort of inappropriate

295
00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:12,120
behavior, but that was a bit murky. But she was still living with her mother and Harvey in their home

296
00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:18,280
while he's being investigated. But remember, she's about the same age as Kathy was at the time of her

297
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:29,320
disappearance and murder. So that is so creepy. It was June of 1973 when Mary Townsend was attacked

298
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:36,520
while waiting at a bus stop. She had been knocked unconscious, but awoke in a strange man's vehicle.

299
00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:44,920
He tried to sexually assault her, but she left from a moving vehicle to escape him. Yeah.

300
00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:52,200
Bold moves. Like not that I want you to have to do that. No, God damn you. Do anything to get out of

301
00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:56,760
that situation. Holy shit. When you're between a rock and a hard place, jump out of the car.

302
00:39:56,760 --> 00:40:03,640
And you're like, when the car came into this, she had been a runaway at the time of her attack. And

303
00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:12,200
that's likely the reason, at least in part why she didn't report it. Despite that fact, this attack

304
00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:19,560
has also been linked to Harvey. As for his wife Alice, she was apparently trying to leave him around

305
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:27,080
this same time, because she's like, this situation is looking tenuous at best.

306
00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:37,160
Get out. She was not wrong. Yeah. When she filed assault charges in July of 1973, it did allow

307
00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:45,480
police to pick him up, even if it wouldn't allow them to hold him for long. In September of 1973,

308
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:54,520
he picked up 13-year-old hitchhiker Jerry Billings. He forced her to perform sexual acts on him,

309
00:40:54,520 --> 00:41:03,960
while he assaulted her with a hammer. Surprisingly, Harvey released this traumatized child.

310
00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:10,840
She had survived, but would not speak of the horrifying incident until many months later.

311
00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:17,640
God, she's 13. Yeah. And sometimes that's how trauma works. People don't always

312
00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:26,840
immediately flee the scene and go to the police, though that is a very good instinct. But sometimes,

313
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:35,160
I mean, God damn, that is what trauma can do. And she's not the first or the only. So...

314
00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:41,240
And you said she was a runaway or was that from... That was the previous. Yeah. They're so nasty.

315
00:41:41,240 --> 00:41:52,600
I know. And it's gonna get so much worse. By mid 1974, Harvey had given up on the idea of reconciling

316
00:41:52,600 --> 00:42:02,760
with his wife Alice and had begun dating another woman, Elaine Hunley. Elaine, no, yeah. And honestly,

317
00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:13,880
how these two struck up a relationship is puzzling. Okay, this is so weird. Their meet cute came about

318
00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:23,160
when he found her on the side of the road after her car had broken down. So I'm sorry. How does she end

319
00:42:23,160 --> 00:42:30,760
up being someone he carries on a relationship with and doesn't murder? Yeah. Because that seems

320
00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:37,800
to be his thing like by the people on the road. Very strange. But the pair ended up

321
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:46,680
shacked up in Minnesota. Again, Minnesota. Yeah, back to Minnesota. The law enforcement had been

322
00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:52,520
able to hold him at least temporarily due to other charges as they built a case against him.

323
00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:58,120
For Kathy Summiller's murder, they weren't able to prevent his relocation.

324
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:05,560
Harvey had sold the gas station and moved as he'd made his way back to Minnesota,

325
00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:13,640
fleeing as he had become the number one person of interest in connection with Kathy's murder.

326
00:43:13,640 --> 00:43:23,800
He was said to have passed through California. On his way to Minnesota from Washington? Yeah.

327
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:30,440
I'm glad you picked up on that because my next line is doesn't seem like that's the most direct route

328
00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:36,680
probably, but I'm not that great with geography, but I feel like Minnesota is not down there. Not in

329
00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:45,720
that direction. He's just taking the scenic ground. Notably during this period, the bodies of multiple

330
00:43:45,720 --> 00:43:52,680
young women were found in the area as he was passing through. Some of those cases remain unsolved

331
00:43:53,240 --> 00:44:00,840
because there were a lot of serial killers in the mid-70s in California, but he literally has

332
00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:07,240
speeding tickets in the area where some of these women were murdered and I'm just saying,

333
00:44:07,240 --> 00:44:18,440
maybe. Wow. Yeah. So why is speeding? What you trying to get away? Why? Why? Why you got

334
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:27,240
joy so fast? Because you went the wrong way in Minnesota's in the other direction? Or because the

335
00:44:27,240 --> 00:44:36,440
the woman you just killed is in that direction. Maybe a little bit both. When Elaine inevitably broke

336
00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:44,680
up with him, because where he's a piece of shit, it didn't take long for her to suddenly disappear.

337
00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:57,720
No, Elaine. Yeah. She left him August 9th of 1974 and it thankfully didn't take long for those

338
00:44:57,720 --> 00:45:03,640
closest to her to report her missing. They're like, weird how she's not showing up to anything,

339
00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:09,480
including her job. I wonder if we should be concerned about that. And they were like, yeah,

340
00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:16,840
yeah, you know what? We took a vote and we decided, yes. Someone check on Elaine. Elaine. She okay.

341
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:23,080
She is super done. Okay. Her body was discovered just over a month after her disappearance.

342
00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:31,080
Her death was clearly a homicide. The beating she endured leading to her school actually imploding.

343
00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:44,600
Horrifying. I had to read that several times over. I'm like, I'm sorry. Did you say implode? That is

344
00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:53,640
what? Every time you say something about the school, I just go back to the Lizzy Board and

345
00:45:53,640 --> 00:46:04,920
the pictures of the parents' goals and like, I, this is one of those cases where I'm like, your

346
00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:16,120
school's not supposed to do that. She was also raped with a foreign object, a tree branch. No,

347
00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:26,120
why? Which is like, okay, a stick is, that's, it's all bad. It's real bad. A tree, a branch.

348
00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:37,080
Men are so fucking gross. Well, this man certainly, I mean, come on, let's be honest. Nurse,

349
00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:45,960
he's not the only one, but I have no further. That's all I want to say.

350
00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:50,440
I hope he's getting sexually assaulted with a tree branch every single day in hell.

351
00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:56,040
It's funny you should say that because there is a very happy ending to this story that I feel like

352
00:46:56,040 --> 00:47:04,520
is sort of, it feels like poetic justice. It's not like a tree branch, but you might argue

353
00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:11,960
possibly even more horrific. So something to look forward to. Great. Yeah.

354
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:23,560
What page are you on? Seven. Though each of his crimes have been incredibly brutal, it seems

355
00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:31,720
this marked a turning point or perhaps the better term might be escalation. That's what I was thinking.

356
00:47:31,720 --> 00:47:38,520
Yeah, carrying out such a horrific attack on his own partner rather than a stranger seemed to have

357
00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:48,200
Harvey, I would say fully unhinged because the following month he would perpetrate an astonishing

358
00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:53,800
number of attacks, those some ended in markedly different ways compared to Elaine.

359
00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:59,400
Remember before when you said there's just so many, it's happening so fast.

360
00:48:00,920 --> 00:48:09,880
Buckle up buttercup because holy shit, it is about to, it's fast and furious style. Like it's like

361
00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:16,520
the 11th one. I don't want to go fast. I don't know. If you ain't first, you're biased. I want to be

362
00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:25,080
last. In early September, two teenage girls named June and Lisa were offered $25 each by a man

363
00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:32,840
driving by to help him retrieve his son's vehicle from somewhere in the nearby area. Kind of vague and

364
00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:37,800
they were like, "Twenty-bottles." So they happily agreed. Do anything for $25?

365
00:48:37,800 --> 00:48:44,360
They're about to walk into a basement and like I'm screaming. I just threw popcorn everywhere.

366
00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:51,080
But honestly, you should be able to take $25 from someone asking you to help them. Like there shouldn't

367
00:48:51,080 --> 00:48:57,160
be anything wrong with that. But just to be clear, you're super-can't. Don't get in cars with strangers.

368
00:48:57,160 --> 00:49:06,760
The only safe way to do gig work is probably through something like fiber or task rabbit or something.

369
00:49:06,760 --> 00:49:14,520
You want your movements to be tracked. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Eventually, they realized that they appeared to

370
00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:21,000
be going quite a bit further out of the way than he had described. When questioned about this,

371
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:28,200
he reportedly asked the girls, "And nothing can prepare you for this question, especially when you are

372
00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:37,960
traveling in a vehicle out of town with this man." He asked, "Would you rather be killed or would you

373
00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:45,400
rather be raped?" That's not a fun game of "Would you rather?" No. That's you're doing it wrong.

374
00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:51,880
Doing it so wrong. So wrong. You're supposed to ask, like, "Would you rather eat a booger or like

375
00:49:51,880 --> 00:50:03,960
swallow a bug?" Yeah. Suck down a fart. I don't know. Yeah. It's not weird. It's not. Not appropriate.

376
00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:09,560
Well, they actually responded, which I wasn't expecting, but I feel like they just wanted to make

377
00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:16,760
their wishes known, I guess. One of the girls replied on both of their behalf, which also kind of presumptuous,

378
00:50:16,760 --> 00:50:23,320
okay? Stating that they would rather be killed and turns out her friend agreed, because she was like,

379
00:50:23,320 --> 00:50:30,600
"Yeah, pretty much. Damn. Yeah." When he finally stopped the vehicle, his instructions were that one of

380
00:50:30,600 --> 00:50:37,560
them was to stay in his truck while the other followed him to retrieve his son's vehicle. So he's

381
00:50:37,560 --> 00:50:44,200
picking up the story about how we got them out there in the first place. I need help getting my

382
00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:52,200
son's car. And they're like, "Okay, okay." Still though, like, what choice do you have? So one of the

383
00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:59,720
girls accompanied him following him into the woods. And she happened to be the one that he attacked

384
00:50:59,720 --> 00:51:08,200
with a hammer. But miraculously, somehow she does survive. In a shocking twist, he apparently

385
00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:15,000
allows both girls to live and just drives away in his truck, which I feel like kind of

386
00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:25,720
downplays the fact that he attacked her and like, he left them both essentially for dead.

387
00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:36,200
So he did attack them both? Um, unclear. I'm given to understand that it was just one of them that he

388
00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:46,360
physically attacked. Since fucking off all no matter what I had. Yeah. Yeah. Then something even

389
00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:53,880
weirder happens over the next few days. Multiple different young women come forward to the authorities

390
00:51:53,880 --> 00:52:03,640
to describe a man and his vehicle that had attacked them. What? Who could be responsible for that?

391
00:52:03,640 --> 00:52:10,120
Is it the same vehicle? Yeah, they're all describing the same dude and the same. Is it the same one he

392
00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:15,800
had before the black and yellow camper thing? You know that? I think so. I don't think he even swapped

393
00:52:15,800 --> 00:52:25,960
out the vehicle. Yeah, which is wild. Wild. This is like animal planet level. Wild. Actually,

394
00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:35,320
the animals aren't even this wild. Is this a speculative documentary? This isn't real, right?

395
00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:41,960
It's like the mermaid. It's not real. Oh, it's unfortunately very real. Yeah.

396
00:52:41,960 --> 00:52:55,480
Okay. Then on September 14th, 1974, Gwen Burton is picked up from a Sears parking lot where she was

397
00:52:55,480 --> 00:53:02,760
apparently having car trouble. The man had told her he could help fix the issue with her car and she

398
00:53:02,760 --> 00:53:09,320
had agreed, accepting the offer to ride along with him to pick up his tools, which is like, why do I need

399
00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:16,520
to go with you? Yeah. Can you help with my tools? Yeah. I mean, I guess back then, I think especially,

400
00:53:16,520 --> 00:53:20,760
you're just like, oh, this person's going to help me. I'll just go along to keep him company. But

401
00:53:20,760 --> 00:53:25,000
like he's a grown-ass man. He'll be all right. He was alone when you found him.

402
00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:33,240
Anyways, not her fault just saying, don't do it. Right. She became suspicious after some time seeing

403
00:53:33,240 --> 00:53:40,040
how far out of the way the man appeared to be taking her. She asked him to take her back to her

404
00:53:40,040 --> 00:53:47,640
vehicle or even just to let her out where they were. However, he refused and of course then attacked her.

405
00:53:47,640 --> 00:53:56,200
He began ripping at her clothing and choking her. He took her to a field where he then raped her

406
00:53:56,200 --> 00:54:05,800
with a hammer before beating her with it. Following this brutal attack, he simply, he's like,

407
00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:14,680
bad, deuces, he flees the scene. He just leaves. Unbeknownst to him, Gwen is still alive and struggles

408
00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:28,280
a way to try to get help. She would later identify Harvey in a lineup. Yeah. However, the brutality continued

409
00:54:28,280 --> 00:54:36,840
as Harvey picked up two additional young female hikers, Sally and Diane. The most wholesome names

410
00:54:36,840 --> 00:54:47,160
and he forces them to do not necessarily super wholesome thing. He forced them to perform oral sex

411
00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:52,360
under the threat of violence because they weren't going to do it because he was so good looking. Again.

412
00:54:52,360 --> 00:55:03,080
Cannot, cannot, cannot overstate that. They were eventually able to escape when Harvey later made a

413
00:55:03,080 --> 00:55:13,400
stop for fuel. Cannot make this shit up. You might think that as more victims seem to be escaping his

414
00:55:13,400 --> 00:55:21,960
oversized man hands that his reign of terror must be coming to an end. Well, not quite yet,

415
00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:29,080
unfortunately, though law enforcement from more than one state was they were like, buddy, we're

416
00:55:29,080 --> 00:55:37,400
onto you. And also don't call me buddy, pal, guy, friend. Harvey was still on his brutal bullshit.

417
00:55:37,400 --> 00:55:47,560
So there's another disappearance in September of 1974. So like September, September, September,

418
00:55:47,560 --> 00:55:55,960
so many horrible things. It's a rough time. You know, you think back to school is rough. That's when

419
00:55:55,960 --> 00:56:04,280
Kathy Schultz went missing. Her brutally beaten body was discovered in a cornfield outside of

420
00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:15,480
Minneapolis. Her school had imploded. Never gets easier to say that or this and she too was raped

421
00:56:15,480 --> 00:56:25,480
by a foreign object. As if that wasn't bad enough, sadly, she had actually attended school with

422
00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:35,560
two of his very recent prior victims, Sally and Diane. In his hasty attempt to distance himself from

423
00:56:35,560 --> 00:56:42,760
this latest crime, he left tire imprints where he'd abandoned Kathy's body.

424
00:56:42,760 --> 00:56:51,560
When law enforcement searched Harvey's vehicle in Minnesota, following the death of Elaine

425
00:56:51,560 --> 00:56:56,360
Hunley, remembered this as his ex-girlfriend and he was like, if I can't have you, nobody will.

426
00:56:56,360 --> 00:57:06,440
And she was like, oh no, I imagine. They found maps of various states as well as a clump of hair

427
00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:13,800
made up of a composite of several different individuals, which is super gross. He had a hair doll.

428
00:57:13,800 --> 00:57:18,360
Not a hair doll. It was like just like a clump of hair. I don't think he was trying to make a doll.

429
00:57:18,920 --> 00:57:24,200
You don't know. I don't know. I don't want to know. That's creepy. That's too much for me.

430
00:57:24,200 --> 00:57:29,880
The maps had several locations circled throughout multiple states.

431
00:57:29,880 --> 00:57:37,560
One of which was where Kathy Sue Miller was discovered in Washington while yet another

432
00:57:37,560 --> 00:57:44,360
circled location was where Laura Leslie Brock had been found dead also in Washington state.

433
00:57:46,280 --> 00:57:52,360
Kathy Sue Miller and Laura Leslie Brock had gone missing within just a few months of each other.

434
00:57:52,360 --> 00:57:57,560
And remember, he was a person of interest in Kathy's case before he fled to Minnesota.

435
00:57:57,560 --> 00:58:05,080
Thankfully, multiple victims that had escaped his clutches were all able to identify him.

436
00:58:05,080 --> 00:58:11,560
June, Lisa, Sally, and Diane all positively I did him as their attacker,

437
00:58:13,080 --> 00:58:20,040
which is kind of a lot of witnesses. Yeah, it seems pretty damn solid. Yeah.

438
00:58:20,040 --> 00:58:25,240
Maybe don't let him go this time. When he was charged in relation to these crimes,

439
00:58:25,240 --> 00:58:30,920
that he was believed to have committed in Minnesota, Harvey hired an attorney.

440
00:58:30,920 --> 00:58:38,680
He would go on to confess to multiple killings, though he claimed that God had instructed him to

441
00:58:39,240 --> 00:58:47,160
do these things, which is, I don't know, man, like God's kind of all over the place in the stories I've

442
00:58:47,160 --> 00:58:51,160
heard. Sometimes he's like, "Kill one of your kids!" And then sometimes he's like,

443
00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:55,080
"You know, I'm trying to convince people not to cut babies in half."

444
00:58:55,080 --> 00:59:01,800
And it's really all over the board. Again, just another good reason for the white board situation.

445
00:59:01,800 --> 00:59:12,040
But I didn't cross. So apparently we're going for the insanity defense. I mean, he seems like legit.

446
00:59:12,040 --> 00:59:19,160
Something's going on in there. I mean, there's not right. Yeah. He was charged with attempted

447
00:59:19,160 --> 00:59:27,000
murder and aggravated sodomy, which he would have to go to trial for prior to any additional

448
00:59:27,000 --> 00:59:34,600
murder charges. Harvey was then sent to St. Peter's State Hospital for a pre-sentencing

449
00:59:34,600 --> 00:59:41,320
psychiatric examination, where he was diagnosed with a severe anti-social personality disorder.

450
00:59:41,320 --> 00:59:50,920
By mid-1975, things are kind of starting to fall in place in terms of the legal case against him.

451
00:59:52,040 --> 00:59:57,960
Harvey was found guilty in connection to multiple charges filed against him for the attacks on

452
00:59:57,960 --> 01:00:05,080
Jerry Billings and Gwen Burton. Because also, you know, some of them, they Gwen was like, "That's

453
01:00:05,080 --> 01:00:14,840
super him!" Right there in the lineup, I see him. It was that guy. So he was sentenced to 30 years

454
01:00:14,840 --> 01:00:21,560
for each, though he was only ordered to serve 40 of the 60 years that he was sentenced to in total.

455
01:00:22,280 --> 01:00:28,760
Not really sure why, but it really doesn't matter. Because next, he was indicted on murder charges

456
01:00:28,760 --> 01:00:38,920
in the cases of Catherine Schultz and Eileen Hunley. Harvey pled guilty to the second-degree

457
01:00:38,920 --> 01:00:46,360
murder charge in the case of Catherine Schultz receiving a 40-year sentence. He was found guilty

458
01:00:46,360 --> 01:00:55,240
of Eileen's murder as well, because duh. However, this first-degree charge carried a life sentence.

459
01:00:55,240 --> 01:01:02,920
There were Supreme Court shenanigans, but his conviction was appelled in 1978.

460
01:01:02,920 --> 01:01:09,480
And the next couple of decades were relatively uneventful

461
01:01:10,920 --> 01:01:18,840
until his prostate cancer diagnosis in the late 90s. I'm trying so hard not to smile with

462
01:01:18,840 --> 01:01:24,280
Lee. Feels still somehow like maybe a little mean to...

463
01:01:24,280 --> 01:01:30,360
Dorothy, the speeder. No!

464
01:01:33,640 --> 01:01:42,760
Anywho, he died in "You're Not Even Gonna Believe This Cassie." I had to quadruple check this. He

465
01:01:42,760 --> 01:01:54,920
died in March of 2023. Like? That's last year. A year and a half ago. Wow. At the ripe old age of 95,

466
01:01:54,920 --> 01:02:01,560
after serving nearly five decades behind bars for his crimes. Good. I mean, he made it for

467
01:02:01,560 --> 01:02:07,480
last time. But like, that's also not to mention all the time that he served as a younger man.

468
01:02:07,480 --> 01:02:16,200
But like, five, almost five-fold decades. For a handful of the crimes that like we know,

469
01:02:16,200 --> 01:02:21,880
me like, dude, did it. They didn't get him on everything. There are two murders that...

470
01:02:21,880 --> 01:02:29,960
It's like, we... Again, I think we know even if we don't like, know he did it. Yeah.

471
01:02:30,760 --> 01:02:38,360
Kathy Sue Miller and Laura Leslie Brock. I mean, they were spotted in his vehicle or his vehicle

472
01:02:38,360 --> 01:02:45,880
was spotted near where their bodies were fat. Listen, I don't like to say. And normally I would,

473
01:02:45,880 --> 01:02:52,120
you know, allegedly, allegedly. You couldn't force me to give a single flying fuck.

474
01:02:52,120 --> 01:03:00,040
You can't sue us. He super did it. But just funny because, you know, not a tree branch, but

475
01:03:00,520 --> 01:03:06,760
something did literally climb up his ass and kill him. Yeah. Well, but a cancer. Super awesome.

476
01:03:06,760 --> 01:03:12,600
I don't know if it was actually the cancer that killed him. Most of what I could find out there

477
01:03:12,600 --> 01:03:18,600
basically said he died of natural causes. I don't know what that is exactly. I don't know. He was

478
01:03:18,600 --> 01:03:27,240
diagnosed with cancer in the late 90s. And then he lived for like 25 more years. So... Man, I hope

479
01:03:27,240 --> 01:03:34,200
it was a really painful. Yeah. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. Am I right? I hope we got no pain

480
01:03:34,200 --> 01:03:41,640
meds. Yeah. I mean, I don't think they're big on rolling out narcotics to violent offenders, but

481
01:03:41,640 --> 01:03:49,720
what do I know? Hashtag, not a doctor. Well, I wish they would have fucking just hung him in the

482
01:03:49,720 --> 01:03:58,680
first place. I mean, just could have saved like potentially, you know, I don't so many lives.

483
01:03:58,680 --> 01:04:04,440
So many lives. I have a trauma of so many young girls and women too. Even the survivors.

484
01:04:04,440 --> 01:04:17,880
Like, rampage after. Yeah. Yeah. September was like a rough time. 1973. And then, let me say,

485
01:04:17,880 --> 01:04:26,200
I think it yeah. And then 74 back to back like rough times. But September 74 is when it just

486
01:04:26,200 --> 01:04:33,960
like dude, you got a calm down. I need you to take several seats. Do you think he just like knew he

487
01:04:33,960 --> 01:04:39,320
was getting caught soon? Or maybe it was just his sickness was just getting worse. Yeah, I just feel like

488
01:04:39,320 --> 01:04:46,440
it's it's so classic. We just see this with so many serial killers where, you know, they talk about

489
01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:52,760
it in every, you know, true crime series or, you know, even fictional or not.

490
01:04:52,760 --> 01:04:59,960
Everything that you watch about crime and they talk about how, you know, escalation. And it's like,

491
01:04:59,960 --> 01:05:05,000
I feel like at some point they just sort of get to a stage where they either think they can't,

492
01:05:05,000 --> 01:05:11,640
like they're invincible. They can't get caught. There's sort of the myth that they want to get caught,

493
01:05:11,640 --> 01:05:17,160
but I think they just reach like a fever pitch. It just becomes a frenzy and they don't give a

494
01:05:17,160 --> 01:05:24,360
shit what evidence they leave behind. They either think they can run forever or they just don't care.

495
01:05:24,360 --> 01:05:30,520
Yeah. So I don't know. Please catch me. Don't. I'm gonna do my thing over here. I'm just over here

496
01:05:30,520 --> 01:05:40,120
being a ham hand. Ham hand having son of a bitch me and my hammer for laughs. So all the ones where

497
01:05:40,120 --> 01:05:47,080
you had said that they passed from like the blunt forest trauma. It was, do they think it was all a

498
01:05:47,080 --> 01:05:55,720
hammer or different? There were in some of the cases, it was clear that like some sort of a weapon

499
01:05:55,720 --> 01:06:05,720
or object was used, but there was indeed, I think it was the first murder where it was alarming

500
01:06:05,720 --> 01:06:13,000
because this woman was, I mean, completely unidentifiable. Like you could barely tell that she was human.

501
01:06:13,000 --> 01:06:23,400
And the horrifying realization that they came to, and this was something that I didn't include,

502
01:06:23,400 --> 01:06:31,960
but now that you're asking. Sorry. No, it's, they were a horrifying realization that came to them as,

503
01:06:31,960 --> 01:06:39,000
you know, they were examining the body and everything. They realized, oh my god, we thought that this

504
01:06:39,000 --> 01:06:47,240
woman was like beaten about the head with an object. And this was nope, just his ham hands,

505
01:06:47,240 --> 01:06:55,560
he did this with his bare hands. That was, I believe, Laura Showalter, who was his first, at least,

506
01:06:55,560 --> 01:07:05,640
known victim when he was living in Alaska as an enlisted army man.

507
01:07:05,640 --> 01:07:11,880
He did that with his hands, with his bare hands, with his ham,

508
01:07:11,880 --> 01:07:18,360
hammy bare hands. Why was also thinking to a hammer isn't that big, you know?

509
01:07:20,360 --> 01:07:25,960
And his hands are, so it's like, I don't know, it just seems so like super intimate too,

510
01:07:25,960 --> 01:07:31,800
because it's not like something that you're swinging like it. Yeah, the object creates, like,

511
01:07:31,800 --> 01:07:37,960
not just a physical, but sort of like a psychological distance between you and the crime that you're

512
01:07:37,960 --> 01:07:46,600
committing, I would think. Yeah. Yeah. No. That makes sense. It's awful from every potential angle,

513
01:07:47,640 --> 01:07:55,800
you know, from which you can examine it. So that's cool. There's a lot of other source material that I

514
01:07:55,800 --> 01:08:01,960
looked at that talked about other cases, a little bit more in depth that he was potentially involved in.

515
01:08:01,960 --> 01:08:09,400
There was a case that I couldn't find substantiated really in anything that I was finding in terms

516
01:08:09,400 --> 01:08:16,120
of source material. I don't know if they changed the name of the woman that they were referring to,

517
01:08:16,120 --> 01:08:24,760
but I came across a relatively, I think, reputable source where they were referring to a victim that I

518
01:08:24,760 --> 01:08:30,680
was like, I can't find this person by name anywhere else. And it was really bizarre because I was like,

519
01:08:30,680 --> 01:08:37,080
there's no, there's no other source material that seems to like have alternately named her like,

520
01:08:37,080 --> 01:08:44,680
like we saw with Dorcas versus Christine, depending on, you know, the source material and at what

521
01:08:44,680 --> 01:08:52,280
point in time you're reviewing. I don't know. I have no idea where that person came from. It all sounds

522
01:08:52,280 --> 01:08:58,520
very much like Harvey and it sounds like it played a very pivotal role in his downfall that I couldn't

523
01:08:58,520 --> 01:09:06,840
find any information about it. Oh, yeah. It was, I mean, there's just so many victims and there's

524
01:09:06,840 --> 01:09:16,840
so many people that he suspected having to have either abducted, sexually assaulted, murdered. I

525
01:09:16,840 --> 01:09:22,760
mean, and again, some of those are unsolved. It's like, okay, well, I don't know. Do we have anything

526
01:09:22,760 --> 01:09:28,760
that we can like test? Do we, do we have anything that we could like, I don't know, run some DNA and

527
01:09:28,760 --> 01:09:36,120
try to, I don't know, like crazy idea I had here, but what if we tried to solve it anyway?

528
01:09:37,080 --> 01:09:42,840
I know, like just to just to know the things are solved. Yeah. I mean,

529
01:09:42,840 --> 01:09:50,520
because here's a crazy thought, then it's like, we know that he did it and, you know, I feel like

530
01:09:50,520 --> 01:09:58,680
probably somewhere out there, those people, you know, maybe they've remained unidentified

531
01:09:58,680 --> 01:10:04,520
officially for all these years, but more than likely that person has family, right? And they

532
01:10:04,520 --> 01:10:12,680
probably would like to know what happened. Maybe we do it, you know, for that. And maybe if it wasn't him,

533
01:10:12,680 --> 01:10:18,040
I don't know, maybe then we keep looking. We just get wild and we figure out like, was it maybe

534
01:10:18,040 --> 01:10:23,720
somebody else? Maybe they were younger than Harvey was at the time of the crime and maybe there's

535
01:10:23,720 --> 01:10:29,400
somebody else who's still living freely that like totally got away with murder and everybody thinks

536
01:10:29,400 --> 01:10:35,640
Harvey did it. I don't know, Tommy Crazy, I just think we should solve the crimes. Just solve all the

537
01:10:35,640 --> 01:10:42,440
crimes. Just solve them. You know, I understand that there are active ones. I'm not saying that it's

538
01:10:42,440 --> 01:10:48,920
easy, but I do think, you know, there's, there's a lot of cases I think that we're kind of sitting on

539
01:10:48,920 --> 01:10:57,800
and it definitely has to do with budget. I propose, I have an idea. Get it. Let the podcasters do it.

540
01:10:58,760 --> 01:11:05,720
If no one needs to be convicted of any sort of home DNA, just give us all of the information and

541
01:11:05,720 --> 01:11:11,800
let us kind of solve it for you. Present it to you. You can double check our work, you know.

542
01:11:11,800 --> 01:11:19,800
I think the issue is that a lot of these, it's like it comes down to that if we just took the time,

543
01:11:19,800 --> 01:11:26,520
if we use the resources, if we spent the money, that's probably the most critical piece,

544
01:11:27,240 --> 01:11:33,640
just to run, you know, whatever DNA samples or other forensic evidence with more advanced,

545
01:11:33,640 --> 01:11:38,440
you know, technology all these years later. I think a lot of them could be solved, but

546
01:11:38,440 --> 01:11:46,600
those resources just are so often not available or they're not allocated to that.

547
01:11:46,600 --> 01:11:53,640
Maybe one day there will be no crime left to solve and then we'll just have to focus on all the

548
01:11:53,640 --> 01:12:02,200
last ones. Yeah, you know, just not let Oregon rebound in terms of the backlog of rape kits again.

549
01:12:02,200 --> 01:12:09,080
Yeah. Like just happened because we have a backlog again, apparently. So like, great, great job,

550
01:12:09,080 --> 01:12:15,240
guys. Great job of that. I read that recently and I was like, I'm so angry.

551
01:12:19,240 --> 01:12:25,400
It gives me crazy eyes. Just stop fucking raping people. Yeah. What? Like it's hard?

552
01:12:25,400 --> 01:12:34,040
Literally it shouldn't be that. Yeah, it just don't do it, you know. That's so easy. It's so easy

553
01:12:34,040 --> 01:12:41,640
to just not do the things that suck. I'm in from my perspective for what it's worth.

554
01:12:41,640 --> 01:12:47,160
All right, well, now we've talked about as butt cancer. Should we

555
01:12:47,880 --> 01:12:50,840
introduce some tarot? Let's do some tarot. Tirit!

556
01:12:50,840 --> 01:13:13,640
Okay. Okay, pick one. Oh, interesting. Okay, we drew the sun. We're using our

557
01:13:14,520 --> 01:13:20,440
tarot, Toreal dick. Do you want to know something really weird? Yeah. Obviously.

558
01:13:20,440 --> 01:13:26,040
See the shirt I had on? Oh my gosh. That's so funny. I didn't, I really didn't even notice.

559
01:13:26,040 --> 01:13:30,600
The sun. And I put it on. I was like, oh, what if we got the sun card today?

560
01:13:30,600 --> 01:13:38,840
That's weird. This is not weird. But like totally doesn't have anything to do with your

561
01:13:38,840 --> 01:13:49,240
terrible case. I mean, I guess we'll see. Okay. So our keywords are joy, success,

562
01:13:49,240 --> 01:13:56,840
enlightenment, marriage and vitality. I was associated with obviously the sun, fire.

563
01:13:56,840 --> 01:14:08,680
The numbers one and ten. The sun card features a blazing sun. Sometimes with a face

564
01:14:09,320 --> 01:14:17,080
sun beams radiating out from it. Beneath the sun in the rider weight Smith deck, a smiling nude

565
01:14:17,080 --> 01:14:23,800
child rides a white horse. Some decks show two children with their arms around each other.

566
01:14:23,800 --> 01:14:31,240
Other decks picture a young couple holding hands. The sun rules the zodiac sign Leo, which

567
01:14:31,240 --> 01:14:37,240
astrologers link with child children, pleasure and creativity. All righty.

568
01:14:38,120 --> 01:14:44,360
The sun card represents life itself for the sun gives life to everything on earth.

569
01:14:44,360 --> 01:14:53,560
Interesting. One of the most joyful cards in the tarot, it signifies vitality,

570
01:14:53,560 --> 01:15:00,680
confidence, achievement, attainment and success in all endeavors. Okay.

571
01:15:02,680 --> 01:15:08,520
I feel like maybe I feel like maybe in the interpretation here, we might get a sense of

572
01:15:08,520 --> 01:15:17,240
who this is for or maybe why we're this is a just strange card to draw for this, but I feel like

573
01:15:17,240 --> 01:15:23,080
maybe it's starting to make sense for me a little bit. The sun brightens any negative cards in a

574
01:15:23,080 --> 01:15:31,160
reading no matter where it appears in the spread. Its influence is always beneficial. A new day is

575
01:15:31,160 --> 01:15:38,280
dawning and you're glad to be alive. Whatever your question the answer is positive.

576
01:15:38,280 --> 01:15:44,760
For creative people, the sun can indicate a time of increased inspiration and productivity.

577
01:15:44,760 --> 01:15:51,720
Whatever you undertake at this time is likely to prosper. For the sun is shining on you.

578
01:15:51,720 --> 01:15:59,000
This is a good time to start new projects and expand your horizons. It's your day in the sun.

579
01:15:59,000 --> 01:16:08,360
Just makes me sad because it's like the opposite of yeah. He took every all of those women's sun,

580
01:16:08,360 --> 01:16:18,440
their light, their life away. Yeah. I totally agree. I really does. I feel like the points in each

581
01:16:18,440 --> 01:16:29,720
of the bullets, they don't necessarily feel like they really add anything that gives me greater

582
01:16:29,720 --> 01:16:37,560
perspective on this. I feel like this is for the girls that lived. You know what? That's interesting.

583
01:16:37,560 --> 01:16:41,880
You say that because I was just thinking, well, that's who I was thinking of when I, he didn't even

584
01:16:41,880 --> 01:16:47,160
cross my mind while I was shuffling to be honest with you. Yeah. I was just thinking of all of the women.

585
01:16:47,160 --> 01:16:54,360
So that is interesting though. I do think that's the energy that I mean maybe even unintentionally

586
01:16:54,360 --> 01:17:01,800
that we were kind of putting into the deck. And I'm okay with it. Do we want to try to draw another

587
01:17:01,800 --> 01:17:06,680
one and just see what pops up? Yeah. Do we need to, I feel like I need to touch it again.

588
01:17:06,680 --> 01:17:12,680
Yeah. Because I wasn't thinking of him. Okay. I mean, I don't know that you have to think of him

589
01:17:12,680 --> 01:17:18,840
to be quite honest. Well, I just want, but just to get a little bit of, yeah, I don't know,

590
01:17:18,840 --> 01:17:24,440
something. I'm a little bit torn because I do think that like this is, it's such a positive

591
01:17:24,440 --> 01:17:30,200
reading. And I think that's the takeaway I want that. But it also was kind of like goes back to

592
01:17:30,200 --> 01:17:34,440
the beginning where you're like, well, it does end on, you know, the happiest note that it could

593
01:17:34,440 --> 01:17:41,240
possibly end on like he's dead. So yeah, he's no longer. Honestly, it makes me.

594
01:17:41,240 --> 01:17:50,680
I'm so happy that he lived such a long life. Because a lot of these guys will get caught, especially

595
01:17:50,680 --> 01:17:56,760
when they're already, you know, like he was already in his like late 40s, I think when, you know,

596
01:17:56,760 --> 01:18:04,280
he was put away. And so it's like he could have very easily died a relatively young man.

597
01:18:04,280 --> 01:18:09,000
That's not unusual for people that are incarcerated for their life spans to be

598
01:18:10,360 --> 01:18:16,200
terribly cut short, which I say terribly because I think in a lot of instances, people,

599
01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:22,440
if they are wrongfully convicted or they're put away for decades, for something stupid, like,

600
01:18:22,440 --> 01:18:31,400
you know, smoking a little bit of weed over, you know, I just, that kind of stuff pisses me off

601
01:18:31,400 --> 01:18:38,040
because the treatment that people receive in prison is not ideal. It's not the ideal environment

602
01:18:38,040 --> 01:18:44,440
for you to grow and live a long and healthy life. But for this particular person, that's...

603
01:18:44,440 --> 01:18:52,120
He's a fucking weed. He grew through the cracks. Okay, I hope he didn't get to see a lot of the sun,

604
01:18:52,120 --> 01:18:57,240
you know? I'm sure he didn't. I mean, he couldn't have. Okay.

605
01:18:57,240 --> 01:19:05,080
Having that conversation, I think set us on the right path for something more in line with Harvey,

606
01:19:05,640 --> 01:19:13,560
that. That'll do it. Okay, so we drew the King of Cups in reverse. Our keywords would normally be

607
01:19:13,560 --> 01:19:21,080
wisdom, understanding, focus, balance, and peacefulness in the upright position. However, when you

608
01:19:21,080 --> 01:19:31,960
draw it in the reverse, our keywords are coldness, volatile, immature, overreaction, and manipulative,

609
01:19:31,960 --> 01:19:39,480
which there are so many aspects of this case that like, I can't even, I can't even really delve into

610
01:19:39,480 --> 01:19:45,240
how relevant some of these are because they're just not things that I chose to dive deep on.

611
01:19:45,240 --> 01:19:50,440
Really wanted to make sure we had plenty of time to discuss his ass cancer at the end. Yeah.

612
01:19:50,440 --> 01:20:00,360
As one does. As one does. As one does. Overreaction reminds me of like overkill. Yeah. Oh god, yeah.

613
01:20:01,480 --> 01:20:11,800
Oh, okay. So numerology, we've got numbers 14 and 5. It's, this card is also associated with the

614
01:20:11,800 --> 01:20:20,360
astrological signs, Pisces, Scorpio, and Cancer. I am almost positive that he was a Taurus.

615
01:20:20,360 --> 01:20:29,000
May 18. Taurus is for me. They're my favorite. Yeah, that is a Taurus. Yeah. Hey, listen,

616
01:20:29,000 --> 01:20:36,360
you know what? My grandpa was a Taurus and he grew up kind of in the same era as this guy. So

617
01:20:36,360 --> 01:20:41,320
I don't love it either, but I mean, it kind of made sense. He never, never stopped, not even jail,

618
01:20:41,320 --> 01:20:46,680
because it's awesome. Never stopped, never stopped, very headstrong. Yeah, yeah, really.

619
01:20:46,680 --> 01:20:53,720
This card is also associated with water, which is interesting because there aren't really any

620
01:20:54,280 --> 01:20:59,880
water elements associated with this case that I can think of, really.

621
01:20:59,880 --> 01:21:05,960
Because cups and like water is like emotion. Yeah. Lots of emotions. Yeah. Yeah, for sure.

622
01:21:05,960 --> 01:21:13,000
Okay, so this is interesting. We do have slightly different keywords in the big book. Oh, okay.

623
01:21:13,000 --> 01:21:20,040
These are obviously more intended toward the upright position, but I think it's interesting.

624
01:21:21,240 --> 01:21:29,000
Benevolence, culture, creativity, emotional warmth and protection. And we drew this.

625
01:21:29,000 --> 01:21:35,880
And all things opposite kind of. Did they not give keywords for the reverse interpretation?

626
01:21:35,880 --> 01:21:41,640
Not necessarily. No. I don't know why you always thought that they did. Yeah, the reverse interpretation

627
01:21:41,640 --> 01:21:48,920
definitely does. It touches on how the placement of the card, how the meaning is different,

628
01:21:48,920 --> 01:21:55,240
but it doesn't specifically identify different keywords. Because the keywords and theory are

629
01:21:55,240 --> 01:22:00,520
the same. It's just sort of like the other side of a coin in a way. Well, not necessarily. Yeah,

630
01:22:00,520 --> 01:22:05,800
I mean, that's true. Not necessarily directly opposite. In this case, it works for me that it's

631
01:22:05,800 --> 01:22:13,320
like this. This is also judging from the keywords on the tutorial, territorial. Yeah.

632
01:22:14,600 --> 01:22:22,840
Okay, so this is interesting. In many decks, this king sits on a throne and wears rich garments and

633
01:22:22,840 --> 01:22:34,200
a crown. He usually appears as a benevolent authority, a father figure, which I think it goes without

634
01:22:34,200 --> 01:22:41,000
saying that Harvey didn't have a really healthy modeling of what that might look like. He was a

635
01:22:41,000 --> 01:22:46,760
father figure, not a good one. Yeah. No. I mean, he didn't have that behavior model to him either.

636
01:22:46,760 --> 01:22:55,240
So it says who rules kindly and fairly, which is definitely also again, didn't go into the childhood

637
01:22:55,240 --> 01:23:04,040
nearly enough to elaborate how accurate that is. In a reading, the king of cops may signify

638
01:23:04,040 --> 01:23:11,960
an actual person. When he does, it's generally a mature man who's cultured and knowledgeable in the arts.

639
01:23:11,960 --> 01:23:19,400
Which could not be further from the case. He studied criminal psychology. Yeah, he's very cultured

640
01:23:19,400 --> 01:23:25,480
and artistic. It's funny because as soon as I said it, I was like, well, he did go in person. Yeah.

641
01:23:25,480 --> 01:23:33,640
Okay. This is when we really, really, really get, we get to the crux of Harvey, I think.

642
01:23:33,640 --> 01:23:38,520
Is this where we get to the meat and meaty mitts of the situation? The ham of it all. Yeah.

643
01:23:38,520 --> 01:23:46,440
The reversed king shows emotional turmoil, insecurity and defensiveness.

644
01:23:46,440 --> 01:23:56,600
In security, I like the whole raping people with foreign objects just screams, yeah, in security.

645
01:23:56,600 --> 01:23:59,640
It's a power move. It's just everything that's big.

646
01:23:59,880 --> 01:24:12,280
If he represents a real person, he can be manipulative, emotionally controlling and vindictive.

647
01:24:12,280 --> 01:24:18,040
And boy, oh boy. Yikes. Check, check, check.

648
01:24:18,040 --> 01:24:25,400
This card suggests dissatisfaction and frustration.

649
01:24:27,000 --> 01:24:33,640
Perhaps because you aren't using your creativity. Because you could have used your creativity

650
01:24:33,640 --> 01:24:40,920
to take a bad situation at so many different points in your life and figure out a way to creatively

651
01:24:40,920 --> 01:24:48,120
solve problems and make your life better. But you didn't. But you didn't. But how much of that was

652
01:24:48,120 --> 01:24:55,000
like his choice and like his mental illness, you know? Like if he had had maybe support for his

653
01:24:55,000 --> 01:25:03,720
mental illness, he was not entirely without support really. It was so long ago though, like they

654
01:25:03,720 --> 01:25:08,680
don't have like the medications that they do now and the things are very different. I do think

655
01:25:08,680 --> 01:25:16,840
that there's a lot of very clear indication that there are absolutely just like horrific choices

656
01:25:16,840 --> 01:25:24,920
being made, horrendous decision making. And that is kind of the crux of like, you know, he's just

657
01:25:24,920 --> 01:25:32,440
the recidivism alone just constantly being incarcerated in the parole violations and all of that. It's

658
01:25:32,440 --> 01:25:38,360
just, I mean, come on, that's a choice. That's a choice. But God was telling him to kill people.

659
01:25:38,360 --> 01:25:42,440
Right. You know, so that's, I mean, is that obviously I'm not excusing him.

660
01:25:42,440 --> 01:25:47,800
Can you say, I'm just, no, it's no, it's part of the story though. Like it is.

661
01:25:47,800 --> 01:25:51,720
If things had been different, if there was better medication, I just wonder like what,

662
01:25:51,720 --> 01:25:56,920
yeah, but what have been different? I don't know how they would medicate for something like a

663
01:25:56,920 --> 01:26:03,320
severe anti social personality disorder. I think he had to have had like schizophrenia or something.

664
01:26:03,320 --> 01:26:10,760
If he's hearing God tell him to kill people. I just, I think that a lot of my resources kind of

665
01:26:10,760 --> 01:26:17,240
indicate like that was just something that, I think most people just believe that something he said.

666
01:26:17,240 --> 01:26:24,200
I don't think that that was, I don't think that was real. I don't think that was real. Who knows?

667
01:26:24,200 --> 01:26:29,640
Who knows? I mean, he did mention more than once, you know, how God told him things and said,

668
01:26:29,640 --> 01:26:37,080
do this, do untrue God and just like screams gets a franning at me. Like people in your head

669
01:26:37,080 --> 01:26:40,600
telling you to do things. I mean, and that's fair. I can see how you, yeah.

670
01:26:40,600 --> 01:26:44,920
But also he studied criminal psychology. So what they're just making it up, who knows?

671
01:26:44,920 --> 01:26:49,880
I, you know, and that's the thing is like I struggle with like, okay, how much of this is real?

672
01:26:49,880 --> 01:26:55,880
Yeah. I don't know. Yeah, I don't know. Nobody knows. And you know what? We,

673
01:26:55,880 --> 01:27:06,920
fortunately, we don't ever have to find out really. Okay. Oh shit. Okay. Okay. Terrows here to

674
01:27:06,920 --> 01:27:14,040
back me up in a reading about money, the reverse king can show losses resulting from decisions made

675
01:27:14,040 --> 01:27:20,280
emotionally rather than rationally. Just hello. Not a lot of rational thought there.

676
01:27:20,280 --> 01:27:28,360
Sometimes it indicates laziness, lack of direction or an indulgent nature that lands you in debt.

677
01:27:28,360 --> 01:27:37,240
Like indulgent. Indulgent. Yeah. If the reading is about your job, this card suggests

678
01:27:37,240 --> 01:27:47,160
territorialism and power struggles, which is yeah. If I, if I can't have you, nobody can.

679
01:27:47,160 --> 01:27:54,120
That's yeah, that's kind of immediately where my head goes. Okay. You may fear losing ground and

680
01:27:54,120 --> 01:28:02,760
try to control others. Absolutely. Secrecy, duplicity and manipulation may exist in your workplace

681
01:28:02,760 --> 01:28:08,520
or just like wherever you go. It's so interesting. You said he afraid of losing ground. Is that

682
01:28:08,520 --> 01:28:15,960
why he was speeding constantly? I mean, that could be. And ironically, then he left tire tracks.

683
01:28:15,960 --> 01:28:23,400
Yeah. So grand. He did lose ground. He lost like little bits of some and they were in that he's

684
01:28:23,400 --> 01:28:31,560
neat little lines that represented his specific vehicle. In a question about love, the reverse king

685
01:28:31,560 --> 01:28:39,720
can mean fear of expressing love and caring. Jealousy, defensiveness and or emotional outbursts

686
01:28:39,720 --> 01:28:51,240
may cause problems. Perhaps you feel insecure in a partnership. Wow. Just insecure man all around.

687
01:28:51,240 --> 01:29:00,680
Yeah. A lot of insol energy. Yeah. I mean, let's face it, a lot of a lot of serial killers really do

688
01:29:00,680 --> 01:29:07,800
represent like this. It's a it's a real it's a real strong insol vibe in that crowd. Yeah.

689
01:29:07,800 --> 01:29:16,360
Yucky. Yeah. Well, thanks for telling us about another one. Appreciate you. You're so welcome.

690
01:29:16,360 --> 01:29:22,600
I'm really excited to share with you guys another case. And it's interesting because there are

691
01:29:22,600 --> 01:29:31,080
sort of some parallels, you know, mainly geographically and some things like that. But yeah, I'm

692
01:29:31,080 --> 01:29:38,760
California. California doesn't specifically make another appearance. Washing this. Washing

693
01:29:38,760 --> 01:29:47,800
tin. Yeah. In a way. Yeah. Minnesota. Not Minnesota, but the Midwest. I'm just guessing all the places

694
01:29:47,800 --> 01:29:54,680
you talked about today. Name them off one by one. Yeah. I mean, yeah. I mean, the big one would be,

695
01:29:54,680 --> 01:29:59,080
you know what? No, I'm not going to say it. No, don't say it. I'm not going to say it. I'm not going to say it.

696
01:29:59,080 --> 01:30:03,880
Have the creepy ass day. We'll see you next Tuesday.

697
01:30:03,880 --> 01:30:08,760
I'll show you on the Patreon because there's a good chance we'll see you sooner. Probably. Yeah.

698
01:30:08,760 --> 01:30:11,160
Usually. Usually do. We see you all all the time.

699
01:30:11,480 --> 01:30:19,480
[Music]

700
01:30:19,480 --> 01:30:28,040
I'm wild. Obviously I thought up until basically today I was doing it completely different case.

701
01:30:28,040 --> 01:30:31,400
And I was like, "Well, you should a bit off more than I can chew with my ham hands."

702
01:30:31,400 --> 01:30:38,120
I can make that joke because clearly I don't have ham hands. They're not,

703
01:30:38,920 --> 01:30:43,720
they're nothing like a, they're, I can barely pick up a ham. They're more like,

704
01:30:43,720 --> 01:30:51,720
piglet hands. Oh, I do have kind of like pink. My hands are always a little pink. I just make

705
01:30:51,720 --> 01:30:56,200
Christianard do some little little, little, little, little piglet. Little piglet hands. pnwhauntsandhomicides.com
