11/21/2013 Serial Killer in LaPorte County?

Details of one of the strangest mysteries in Northern Indiana is coming up.  Historian Bruce Johnson and Film Producer Stephen Ruminski, from LaPorte, will be at the Starke County Historical Society's annual meeting, presenting a program about one of the most gruesome murder mysteries of all times.  It appears that perhaps 40 people were killed by this never-caught individual.  Some things to be revealed are -----

What does a set of false teeth have to do with a headless woman?

What was found in the hog lot on a farm in La Porte County?

Why was a piano found on top of children? (Two are in the attached photo.)

And, and, and -- yes, many more questions to be answered --- and some may never be answered.

Save the date of November 21, 2013, for the program at the Knox High School Cafeteria.  More information to come later.
