The Kansas City Vampire: Marc Sappington: Day 4: 12 Nightmares Before Christmas

It is day four of our 12 Nightmares Before Christmas, and we are headed to the Midwest. Every city has trouble with crime. Just watch the news for an hour, and it’s pretty evident that violence occurs even in small communities, no matter how many disbelieving residents claim otherwise. However, some cities statistically have a higher crime rate than others, and many reasons and factors contribute to that. According to the U.S. News Real Estate website, Kansas City, Kansas, located in the middle of the United States, has a slightly higher crime rate than the national average. In 2001, Kansas City had 10,909 violent crimes. Among those were 92 murders, 945 rapes, 7,449 assaults and 2,423 robberies. But, oddly enough, there was no category for “Death by Vampire Cannibal.”Join Jen and Cam of Our True Crime Podcast on this episode entitled ‘The Kansas City Vampire: Marc Sappington Day.’Thank you to our team:Written and researched by Lauretta AllenListener Discretion by Edward October from Octoberpod AMExecutive Producer Nico Vitesse of The Inky Paw PrintSources:https://youtube/Hv3ISDg811U?si=DtrujPt8oYKO-Lcwhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marc_Sappingtonhttps://murderpedia.org/male.S/s/sappington-marc.htmhttps://www.crimelibrary.org/serial_killers/weird/sappington/1.htmlhttps://www.newspapers.com/image/686892606/?match=1&terms=%22Marc%20Sappington%22https://www.newspapers.com/image/686883369/match=1&terms=%22Marc%20Sappington%22https://www.newspapers.com/image/686887661/?match=1&terms=%22Marc%20Sappington%22https://www.newspapers.com/image/686895681/match=1&terms=%22Marc%20Sappington%22https://www.newspapers.com/image/686894452/?match=1&terms=%22Marc%20Sappington%22https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1977/06/11/schizophrenic-episodes-linked-to-the-drug-pcp/647db04d-f0c2-4a1e-aee5-2cdc458aa203/ Learn more about your ad choices.
