A beautiful young wife and mother celebrates her last Christmas in 1987 without knowing it will be the last. Her 13 month old daughter is home with her, she talks to her mother on the phone, says she has a headache and will turn in soon. Several hours later, a roommate hears her daughter crying and gets up to find that Missy has been beaten to death in her own bedroom with very few clues left behind. And the clues that are there were mishandled with the entire investigation being botched from the beginning. Project Cold Case of Jacksonville, Florida has done GREAT work and research with Missy's case.

Some he left in their homes. Some he took to secluded areas and buried them. Two women he has confessed to murdering he assures detectives they are "unrecoverable.' Thank God this monster has spent and will spend the rest of his miserable life in prison. This is the LAST of the series on truck driving serial killers.

Married family man Bruce Mendenhall eventually fell into the long haul trucking industry. Unsuspecting women had no idea the plain looking monster would take their lives in such awful ways. His eventual capture and arrest by Pat Postiglione, Wunderkind Homicide and Cold Case detective from the Nashville PD is more interesting than the terrible things he did to women while trying to blame innocent men. Hear the tenacity of a team who was not going to let him continue on their watch

Being bullied as young person by school mates is never going to be enough of a reason to kill 8 women. Convicted of three murders Keith Jesperson is suspected of killing at least 5 more women. Thinking about tying victims to the back of your semi truck with a chain and dragging them behind you to scrape off their faces and finger prints as evidence is a level of evil thats hard to imagine. This is some of the stories of the Happy Face Killer.

Finally arrested in 1990 after an Arizona state trooper approached Robert Ben Rhoads 18 wheel truck on the side of the highway, the Trooper Mike Miller had no idea he was stopping one of the worst serial killers of the 20th Century. With a mobile torture and murder chamber that he also used to make a living, Rhoads was able to traverse the country appearing to be one of the hard working drivers who supply us with all that we need. His route was different. He may have been arrested for three murders but he is suspected in the deaths of upwards of 50 women.

A task force was formed in the mid 2000's to study highway deaths due to murder. It was found like quite a few of the deaths were murders and that they had signatures that could have related them. Most long haul truckers are hard working, conscientious humans who keep us in food, clothing and so many other things our society would grind to halt without. But a small number of bad people have used this career as a way to hide their terrible deeds. The Highway Serial Killer initiative has been profiled in a new book: Long Haul-Hunting the Highway Serial Killers by former Asst Director of Counterintelligence for the FBI. Hear another part of this multi-part series on the murders on our highways.

When you are born in Cambodia and work hard to get through medical school to be an OB/GYN you cannot imagine the horrors of a despotic dictator taking over your country and putting all intellectuals in work or prison camps. Haing Ngor pretended to be a cab driver to stay alive and had to stand by and not reveal his medical skill just to stay alive. In the face of torture and loss of most of his family he stayed alive and made it to a Red Cross outpost by crawling through thorns and eating scorpions to stay alive. Dr. Ngor could not have imagined he would one day be holding the cinematic worlds most prized possession in his hand: the Oscar for his exemplary work in the film "The Killing Fields," which is based on the life of a journalist/guide who helped American journalists get out alive. And turns out to be Dr. Ngor's story too.

When Teamster leader Jimmy Hoffa headed to a "meeting" in July of 1975 with two leaders of the local underworld he had no idea the betrayal he probably encountered. While this is the 49th year of his disappearance the most likely scenario is that his best friend ended his life in some misguided decision of loyalty. Frank Sheeran's death bed confession in his biography "I Hear You Paint Houses," was startling and is the mostly likely scenario. The biography was the source material for Martin Scorsese's "The Irishman." Hear the story in this weeks episode.
