Murder in Memphis - February 8 2023
February 8th: Michael Dale Rimmer Kills? (1997) Sometimes the easy answer isn’t the right one. On February 8th 1997 a woman disappeared from her job and a suspect in the case, the easy choice, was named almost immediately. In a case that seemed open and shut, many argued that the easiest, most obvious choice, may have put an innocent man behind bars. https://murderpedia.org/male.R/r/rimmer-michael-dale.htm, https://www.actionnews5.com/2021/04/16/tennessee-supreme-court-upholds-death-sentence-man-convicted-ex-girlfriends-murder/, https://www.tncourts.gov/press/2021/04/16/tennessee-supreme-court-upholds-death-sentence-1997-murder-ex-girlfriend, https://www.change.org/p/friends-of-wrongly-accused-justice-for-michael-dale-rimmer, https://californiainnocenceproject.org/tag/michael-dale-rimmer/, https://www.tba.org/?pg=LawBlog&blAction=showEntry&blogEntry=61492 Learn more about your ad choices.

The Wandering Serial Killer - February 2 2023
February 2nd: Manuel Delgado Villegas Dies (1998) Most serial killers have a type. They have an MO or a victim type that can lead investigators straight to them like breadcrumbs. This, however, is not always the case. On February 2nd 1998 a man passed away who chose any type of victim who crossed his path. Which is why he managed to get away with murder for so long and, had he not deviated from this plan, may have gotten away with it a little longer. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manuel_Delgado_Villegas, https://murderpedia.org/male.D/d/delgado-villegas-manuel.htm, https://bodyreport.com/?q=article/profile-manuel-delgado-villegas, https://skdb.fandom.com/wiki/DELGADO_VILLEGAS_Manuel Learn more about your ad choices.
