COLD CASES - The Killing Fields - Time Line - Media-Reference NO DISCUSSION - Page 3 - Websleuths Crime Sleuthing Community​

From post 51 in the media links only thread.
They reported on the 25th of this month an arrest of a security guard
for some killings and possible involvement in 20 others......

Not sure how close in the area he lives and so forth.
Have not read the articles or any in dept reading on him yet.

But I hope they try and see if he may had been responsible for those
whom had there cars/trucks found abandoned on the road side when they were being investigated as missing.

Waiting to see if he ever pulled anyone over.

You can tell by looking at the missing persons and or those found killed look similar in there appearance.
You could group some of them together and considered them being murdered by the same person.
Which is why I am assuming they said there are more then one responsible for these killings.
Some perhaps are random in nature. But others fit a particular pattern as far as appearance is concerned.

LE should group these girls whom look alike and see if there disappearance match any of the physical evidence collected.
Or similarities in there disappearance such as where they occurred, if they had there vehicles found abounded etc.

The most disturbing thing about the Dean Coril story is that it was "solved" when one of the accomplices came forward after he had killed Coril. The Houston PD had no idea that any murders had occured or that any young boys were missing. The 27 missing boys were "written off" as "runaways" and nobody paid attention to the pleas from the parents. Not Texas Law Enforement's finest hour.
