Between 1981 and 1982, four women were brutally attacked, beaten over the head and stabbed with an ice pick or a screwdriver. Two of the women would survive their attacks, but unfortunately, the other two would not. While the methods used in the attacks on these women were similar in and of themselves, there was also another eerie characteristic that they shared - after each attack, a man - speaking in a high-pitched, weepy voice - made a call to the police department confessing his crimes.In this episode, we discuss the crimes of the Weepy Voiced Killer, the phone calls he made, and the actions that finally got him caught.Sources:https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Michael_Stephanihttps://www.kttc.com/2021/11/08/notorious-weepy-voiced-killer/?outputType=amphttps://the-line-up.com/weepy-voiced-killer-paul-michael-stephani?amp=1https://thesirenlppacs.com/2461/crime-corner/the-strange-case-of-the-weepy-voiced-killer/https://youtu.be/G9tZewM5LlEMark of a Killer - Season 2, Episode 1 - “Killer Caller”Intro & Outro Music:Come Play with Me Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/Follow us on Instagram @TSRHPodcast

On September 19, 1992, two bodies were discovered in the Belanglo State Forest in New South Wales, Australia. They were the remains of two young backpackers, Joanna Walters and Caroline Clarke from Britain, who had gone missing just a few months prior. After the discovery of Joanne and Caroline, more and more bodies would be found, until police had identified a total of 7 victims who had all been brutally butchered, their remains disposed of under piles of sticks and leaves.

On September 29, 1978, 15 year old Mary Vincent was picked up by 50 year old Lawrence Singleton as she was hitchhiking her way from Berkely, CA to Corona, CA. Not long after picking her up, Singleton pulled over onto the side of a deserted road where he proceeded to brutally beat and rape Mary. After holding her captive for an entire night, Singleton hacked off both of Mary's arms, threw her down a 30 foot embankment, and left her for dead.
