David Spanbauer was the type of serial killer and rapist that was never going to stop until he got caught. The unfortunate reality is that he had been caught after his first crimes, he had been sentenced to decades in prison... and yet he was released to continue to spread his horror where he makes up for lost time. David's crimes led to a change in laws we just wish it hadn't been at the expense of innocent lives.

18 year old Lloyd Bogle and 16 year old Patricia Kalitzke had been sweethearts for a little over a month when in January 1956 their lives were cut short while parking in a popular spot for lovers. At the time, there was very little evidence to go by to bring any closure to the hearts of the devastated families. It would take 65 years before that closure finally came.
