I'm sure terrifying everybody that he drives past because he's talking to himself and Going to some of the haunts that we've previously discussed here on the show Marcus Oh, what's the first place that Henry goes to let's let's start. Let's let's paint the picture for our listeners brains Well, the first place that he goes to is the Cecil hotel. Okay is now

Why do I know the Cecil hotel, you know the Cecil hotel? We covered this a little bit in our Richard Ramirez episode Richard Ramirez stayed at the Cecil hotel Another serial killer that stayed there during his crime spree was a guy named Jack under vaguer under vinker vaguer under vaguer under vaguer. Oh, yes He lived in the hotel in 1991. He was a journalist that was covering true crime in Los Angeles He was an Austrian dude And the police believe that he was living at the Cecil hotel in a mage to Ramirez and he killed three

Prostitutes in Los Angeles while he was staying there. Well, sometimes you take your job a little too seriously You get lost in it. Yeah, the Cecil hotel. It's the opposite of the Hyatt Where they're like we've had presidents and senators and congressmen stay here There was all kinds of terrible shit that happened there, too on the 50s and 60s. It was a popular suicide spot There was a woman. I love that. Oh, I Love that. It's like if you want to commit suicide Theoretically you have no friends and you're like, I'm so unpopular. I'm gonna go to the most popular suicide spot around

I'm gonna show them. It's a very LA thing to have a popular suicide spot. Yeah here in New York City It's just people climb up to whatever buildings nearest to them But in LA they got to be in they got to go to the place where all the big people have done it This seems to be more of the place where the down-and-out do it always die a poser You kill yourself in a popular suicide spot. That's pathetic in the 50s Helen Gurney jumped off of the 7th floor window landing on the Cecil Hotel Marquis Oh, yeah, that is kind of cool. Yeah. Yeah, Julia more jump from the 8th floor in 1962 Pauline Oton 27 jump from the 9th floor after an argument with her estranged husband

And she landed on a man named George Giannini Who was walking on the sidewalk and both were killed instantly? You know what Giannini? You know what he sounded like is his last word? Oh It's a real creepypasta very It was also a very brutal murder this guy named pigeon Goldie Osgood. No, what was his birth name? pigeon or Goldie Pigeon Goldie was his nickname. Oh, they called him pigeon Goldie because he was known to protect and feed pigeons in a nearby park

Oh, he was a retired telephone operator He had been when they found him dead in his hotel room. He had been stabbed strangled and raped Interesting. Yeah for a 65 year old man. All that done by pigeons, huh? And they they never sold any of the cases never at all judging by the dookie stains and feathers I would say the pigeons did it And there is Round them up round up every pigeon in Los Angeles And there is some people who say that there's a paranormal aspect to all of this that all these people were possibly possessed

But we'll get into that later when we talk about Alisa lamb. Great. All right. Well, let's join Henry on his on his mysterious voyage to the Cecil hotel Yes, uh, you wrecked my hat. It's so funny. I flip it over and it becomes a bird It's true the government will not rest me here for better I'm so tight So tight. I'm sorry. This is Hong Kong under Zabrowski in the streets of Glendale, California And I had to stop being Hong Kong in Zabrowski because there are Asians here. I understand

It is offensive. My my my whole demeanor can be offensive. Yes, you hear that Frank Sinatra Blaring in the background or something D Martin. I don't know. I'm out here at the Americana Just the blazing jewel of Glendale, California, but to dive into some of the true crime of Los Angeles Now Los Angeles as you've all heard me say over and over again this place is a city of broken fucking dreams You know, I guess an angel must get one feather of its wings every time there's a pile of headshots smeared with actresses tears This place is It's broken

People are that people are weird And quiet everybody goes to bed at 10 p.m. You know, I'm up rattling around drinking by myself Smoking weed new Jonestown documentary is very good. These are all things I've learned here in Glendale Today, I'm gonna see some of the more notorious spots for true crime in this Weird fucking city as we know like Basically a lot of murderers had happened to keep this city going. It's a city doesn't belong here There's the hit the pump in the water. We're running out of water Even so they show pictures of rivers right outside the city and it just screams now. There's there's no water here

It's a hard place to live and so people get involved in things that are a little above their heads and they get themselves in trouble or they become a stickly thin Latin American fucking Monsters addicted to candy like Richard Ramirez. I'm going down the skid row to check out Richard Ramirez is old Old old hotel the hotel Cecil It's gonna be interesting heard tell of stories about skid row. It's very intense down there It's like the skid row from little shop of horse

Which is gonna be very interesting and I'm also gonna see the spot where Elizabeth short also known as the black Dahlia was laid to rest I've already done it. So why why even pretend that I haven't done it all I will say is it is very normal neighborhood and They do not enjoy it when you go out and lay down in the lawn and pretend to be Elizabeth short So currently I'm driving down towards skid row an area of Los Angeles It's known as being incredibly dangerous and I will say this as a fact. It looks fucking dangerous There is nobody on the street. I am driving around looking for the Cecil hotel, which has been recently renamed the Place on Maine because of the incident that happened the Lisa lamb

As we have been reported on the podcast several times Chinese woman. It was Canadian Came to LA to visit when missing and was found in the water tank And people drank and showered with dead woman water for I think they say something like nine days There's also the residents of Richard Ramirez during the height of his crime spree You know when we're talking about him walking the streets eating candy. I'm on these streets right now And they are not fucking friendly There is nobody here. Oh, this is a different Los Angeles than I know Which is the dumb Los Angeles

So I am I am still looking for it. It's technically closed. So I'm gonna see if I can find it now So stop it there real quick Marcus. He mentions a Lisa lamb Explain this story a little bit. It was it was a national story, but it was huge. It was fascinating stuff world-wide story At least a lamb. She was a 21 year old Canadian tourist and she was staying at the Cecil Hotel and For 19 days Hotel go guests they bathe they brush their teeth They drank the water of this hotel, right not knowing the entire time That there was a woman a Lisa lamb herself

Hmm decomposing in a water tank on the roof of the Cecil Hotel They said that the water had a funny sweet Disgusting taste now Lisa lamb Somehow made it up to the roof of the hotel right she got through a locked door somehow yeah got to a one of the water tanks up on the Up on the roof opened up the water tank, which was actually unlocked got inside and Drowned is it possible she thought it was the hotel pool

Well, what they said is the Cecil Hotel Cecil Hotel have a pool by the way. Yeah, I know all right No, of course not they have like a sandpit Well now you're gonna jump into tar pit if you want to get all cleaned up but they they found this woman in there and The creepiest thing not necessarily I mean of course the circumstances surrounding it Finding a woman dead in a water tank is gonna be creepy. Oh, yeah The creepiest thing was surveillance footage that was released of a Lisa lamb in the Cecil Hotel's elevator Right before she died. Yeah now explain this this very odd. She was speaking with herself or she was speaking with an unknown

Entity it is terrifying to watch you see this girl in the elevator and first you see her pushing all the buttons All that elevator she was a jokester. Yeah, that's a practical joke on her part And then you see her possibly she hears something outside of the elevator doors and by the way this entire time the elevator doors don't close Right at any point in this interaction to the elevator doors close So she's frantically pushing the buttons to close the door theoretically pushing the buttons and you see her look out Like hiding up against the wall of the hotel. She hears something hides up against the wall looks out hides again Walks out of the elevator doors and you see her making these Strange hand gestures like very like the kind that you see in you know cases of possession

Right, you see her wrists are twisting around her fingers are moving in an inhuman way and here's what I found I found a YouTube video that claims and it's a very Legit claim if you look at that because it's a security camera And so you can see the timestamps at the bottom Yeah, the officially the official released video for some reason is slowed down by half and This video this YouTube video shows the video actually played in real time and then right next to it It shows a Lisa let it right next to it shows the slowed down one and the one that is in real time is Infantly creepier because you see her it's so much more frantic

She's moving back and forth and the hand gestures that she does the supposedly possessed hand gestures are Bone-chilling and at no point did they arrest anybody or find any suspects It took months for the LA coroner's office to Rule her death of suicide and it took even longer for them to say that she had no drugs in her system because that's what a lot Of people said after they saw the video. They said that okay, obviously she's on drugs Obviously, you know, that's she went up to the roof, you know, she was all fucked up on something Yeah, that's why she got into the cooler But after months and months of waiting finally the LA coroner's office said it was an accidental death

There were no drugs in her system, and they just ruled it a death by misadventure And what an adventure it was There had to be somebody in that hotel who loved the water You know who's just never had anything like that. Oh my god. I'm staying here forever Perfect and sort of tastes like foot disease mixed with Canadian bacon All right, let's get back to Henry Zabrowski still in the Cecil hotel You know I will give hipsters this I I turn one corner on skid row and they have turned this whole neighborhood into a hipster little paradise

It's kind of incredible. It's look at this the hotel Cecil Cecil hotel sits in what I guess is a little sweet spot of White people making things I making things sort of mediocre, but fancy It's kind of incredible because as I was coming up Basically, no one was on the streets the first person I saw Was a man in a jester hat Beating a shopping cart with a baseball bat So I was like, ah fun good. Have I chosen the right outfit to be walking skid row?

I'm wearing pink shorts because my other shorts. I literally got covered in taco meat last night I was a little drunk. I'd spilled tacos all over myself So I put on I have fun shorts So I put my fun shorts on and I got a shirt with a lizard on it And I was like, I am gonna go I'm gonna get raped right here I'm gonna see if they let me go inside of this hotel now again to set the scene This is a place that is notorious. They have put a sign in front of it now That's now called stay on Maine not place on Maine

It's called stay on Maine and just put up a plastic Kinko sign above the Cecil hotel sign that used to be there I guess they did this in direct reaction to what happened with Alisa lamb last year Um Many different true crime stories emanate from this hotel Richard again Richard mirrors lives here. This was his base of operations I would like to go around and find out what other bars he's been to but I'm certain if I start asking questions about Richard mirrors I'm not gonna get any good responses Very mysterious I love it, man. You know when the hipsters came for Bed-Stuy. We said nothing

I live in Bed-Stuy when the hipsters came for Williamsburg. We said nothing But when the hipsters came for the Cecil hotel, we should have said something that's pathetic That's a Ramirez kill zone. That's a Ramirez home. That's a shrine. They're putting Connecticut muffins on the corner Starbucks on every turn It ain't right Marcus. It is not and we covered Richard Ramirez extensively in a two-parter I do want to say this about Henry Zabrowski He is dedicated to his craft very much so under cover Henry Zabrowski pink shorts Lizard t-shirt he would have fit right in if he wasn't so damn weird

Well Richard Ramirez to give you guys a very quick overview He was known as the night stalker terrorized Los Angeles terrible stink breath terrible stink breath smelled like wet leather Yeah, yeah better than dirt. Hey. Hey. Hey. Hey. Hey still disagree Everyone you can tell me that you like dirt until the sun goes down until the moon burns out. They don't make it smell good I'll tell you that makes it smell wonderful but he Terrorized San Francisco from June and 84 until August to 85. He was terrifying because he had no real target He didn't specify a specific age group or a gender or a sexual orientation or anything like that

He just wanted to run. Yeah, it was like before his dump of serial killers I just wanted to run. It was all extremely random Which made it extremely difficult for the police to get a hold of them to actually capture them But this is one of the few times when good police work actually captured a serial killer It was like trying to grab and rustle wrestle with wet leather terrifying So what I found this is something that we didn't get to cover in the Richard Ramirez episode It's something that I really wanted to but we just didn't get to it

We ran out of time for it, but I found a questionnaire that Richard Ramirez Filled out for a magazine called answer me. So this would be like his okay Cupid. Yes Harmy, but you know what Richard's looking for love. This is his match.com or Christian mingle Richard Ramirez on Christian mingle calm Well, this is the question that he answered in answer me issue for he did this from prison So they really issue for issue for magazine really had some courage here You know, they're like, well, I don't know if we're gonna make it. We better get that Ramirez interview real quick I think it seems like he wasn't that hard to get a hold of when he was alive. Yeah, he loved talking to people

He's it. I wouldn't say it was a people person, but he loved He did like talk. He loved talking to him. All right. Here's that. Here's the questionnaire favorite sports. Okay, can I guess sure? softball bowling pinball Rugby football boxing tough guy. This is my kind of guy favorite music heavy metal Oh, we knew that yeah, we knew he loved AC DC. We knew he loved Judas Priest all that sorts of shit I wonder if he knew that Judas Priest. What's the name of the head guy there? Rob Halford. Yeah, I wonder if he knew that he was gay at the time. I Doubt he did. Yeah, I don't know if he cared didn't seem like Ramirez was homophobic

You know who but also smelt like wet leather after a concert Rob Halford. That's right. This is favorite actress Samantha Strong Who is that for no actress? All right, all right, she won the 1988 avian award for best new starlet and she's inducted into the avian Hall of Fame Well, that's something nice. Yeah, very nice favorite vacation spot. And this is in all caps Uranus clever Richard. Oh I think it's actually true though. Yeah If you could hang out in Uranus or anyone's anus for a for a for a long period of time

He would be totally relaxed favorite food women's feet All right, I can't disagree with that everyone likes to Rex Ryan the coach of the New York Jets would agree with him favorite color red Naturally and this is when he starts getting into because we all know that Richard Ramirez very much a case of arrested development He never quite got out of the teenage years. All you have to do is go online. Check out his YouTube Interviews and you just you see the psyche of a 14 year old boy I'll tell you that show that television show with a Porsche de Rossi David Cross and rest of development Yeah, rest of development. That would have been a hell of a lot different

It was more about what true arresting development looks like which is Richard Ramirez pastimes and hobbies traveling and measuring coffins and He never measured a coffin. What was the Ramirez never measured a coffee? He's just making this up biggest like cocaine Well biggest dislike hypocrites and authority. This might be Gene Simmons as a matter of fact filling out this questionnaire Make a wish to have my finger on a nuclear trigger device. I Would love it. What do you look for in a girl? Nice ass good legs Her death or not breathing

Perfect way to spend a date moonlit night drinking rum at a cemetery. He was so close with moonlit, right? Moonlit night in cemetery, but then the rub rums gotta go wine. Oh wine I used to drink whiskey in the cemetery. Well, I'm saying if it's a date Marcus I used to drink whiskey in the cemetery with a lady. Oh, yeah. Oh, alright. Oh, yeah, I got some stinky finger there in high school stinky finger Describe yourself asshole and proud of it. I agree with that motto live each day like it's your last I feel like he just got all of his sayings off a bumper like off a beat-up old Chevy Chevy sedan bumper stickers set for this one. If you like a girl, how do you get a girl to notice you?

I pull out my gun It I'm not gonna say it's not an effective way to get somebody to notice you It's not a good way to have them fall in love with you. They will notice you. Yes. Yes How has your life changed as a result of your success? Privacy is a thing of the past. You're in prison Yes, and we'll see in general population. I don't know actually I'm not the whole place. I mean, I'm sure using some sort of supermax facility Well, I would imagine but I would assume with such high high celebrity status. He would have to be in solitary It's quite possible

And finally, what's your message to your fans? Keep your spirit strong? He's a real Dr. Phil type That's answer me magazine. Mm-hmm answer me magazine. I wonder what ever happened to it Imagine that zine didn't last too long. No Alright, so we're gonna pick up with Henry. Mm-hmm still on skid row still on skid row and keep in mind once again Lizard shirt mm-hmm and pink shorts and still in the Cecil Hotel still in the Cecil Hotel Ellie's full of ghosts. There's this stuff and the stuff in this this shitty city. I don't know what's going on here between the birds and the raccoons

And a nude woman just walked past me like legitimately a nude woman just walked past the car that I'm sitting in I I don't know if I love it or I hate it. You know, I'm pretty torn. I don't see if I can get any closer So I couldn't get into the actual rooms I Started going towards the elevators and I was stopped and told them I was meeting a friend there in the lobby And I was fine so they said I could sit in the lobby So I just pretended to text and took a bunch of pictures now

It's it's shady as fuck they don't There's a lot of homeless people in there But it's kind of all kind of painted up to look like Like it's all renovated, but it's absolutely not it also smells like someone took a fresh shit in the lobby And someone tried to pour a bunch of antiseptic on top of it It's not pretty gross in there a lot of a lot of foreign tourists in there Have no idea obviously of the history of the place

Took a picture the elevator release lamp stayed it's You know, it's fun. I'd stay there I'd give it a shot, you know But yeah, Richard Mears walk the streets and now I'm walking around the corner and It's gross out here Yeah, this is bad. This is this is not a good neighborhood Maybe it could be good it'll be good in like ten years once it's fully co-opted by white people, but this place is

It's intense you can see how Richard you fit in here I'm walking around here all skinny Team three guys looking pretty Ramirez-y myself, and I'm not being racist. I'm just saying skinny bad teeth There's a good suit store over here that got to help Richard. Maybe you'd find a job you get a straightness life out It's beautiful in Los Angeles, it's amazing how even though it's beautiful you could still feel exact Exactly how much of a piece of shit This whole fucking neighborhood is Jesus Christ. Yeah, I'm gonna I'm in a bad area and I got a sub talking on my phone There's a man staring at me

Across the street with the Captain America shirt on so all right I'm gonna wrap this up Yeah, get out of there Henry. I'll tell you this the the streets of Skid Row There's gonna be a pig roast tonight if Zabrowski hangs around homeless men are gonna eat like kings They're gonna eat like King Ralph in that great John Goodman film King Ralph I love the fact that Henry was walking through the Cecil is it Cecil or Cecil? I mean, I think it's up to you enter. You know what I'm calling it Cecil Cecil The Cecil Cecil hotel the Cecil Cecil hotel

He's walking through the hotel and he describes homeless individuals being there the overwhelming stench of Dukie on the floor that seemed to be covered up with Lysol and some Febreze Febreze perhaps But you know who you know who is the only person that got kicked out who Henry Zabrowski How is that possible the place smells like an outhouse? It's full of homeless individuals that Henry's the only one that gets kicked out of there What's he doing? I feel like he's a pretty obvious detective Taken pictures and things with the pink shorts and the lizard shirt. Good God Henry when we send you under cover Blend in yeah, that's the first little surveillance exactly put some mud on your face. Maybe a

Drip a little pee in the pants. Maybe don't do it So maybe don't take the the proper pee next time you go. Yeah cut it off 90% the way through and leave that extra 10% in your pants For authenticity. Yes, but skid row Henry was describing It's danger and it truly is dangerous Marcus You got a couple of statistics that prove that this skid rows in downtown Los Angeles a relatively small area, but In what do you think is there at three blocks four blocks? I don't exactly know exactly how big it is But it's a fairly small. I mean relatively small, right? You know in you know relative to the rest of Los Angeles, but it's in Los Angeles County and it accounts for half of the crime

Literally 50% of the crime in all of Los Angeles County It's been home to not only people serial killers who lived on skid row, right? But there was actually a serial killer who operated on skid row itself Just killing on skid just kill on skid row only killing homeless guys. His name was Bobby Joe Maxwell He operated from October in 1978 to January in 1979. He killed 11 homeless men We got to cover this guy in a later episode because he apparently was a ritual slayer He was an occultist so this guy actually did bring some of the occult into his crimes And it seems like LA is such a hotbed of occultist crimes

That's where I think you find the majority of the Midwest guys They kill for the sheer pleasure of killing Los Angeles guys. They kill for a reason They kill for a purpose seems like Los Angeles guys have more of a motive behind what they're doing Well, they also they like to dress up a little bit more Wisconsin guys are killed half those people in his sweatpants You know, we had a shirt on similar to Roseanne that was Roseanne would wear in the show Roseanne Now that I look at it I'm wearing a shirt very similar to the one that Jeffrey Dahmer wore during his trial. Well All right

Take it easy. Don't let the colored shirt fool you that was given to him by the detective that questioned him Is it was actually a gift the detective gave to his son and then went up to his son and said son Can I have that shirt back that I gave you and then this is a true story after the trial Dahmer gave him the shirt back And he the detective went to his son. He's like here's your shirt and the kid was like, you know, dad You can keep that one cuz Dahmer wore it your psychopath So this guy really it was just a full buffet a killing for him full buffet, man Never had to leave skid row. That's killed killed guys like Francisco Perez Rodriguez Jimmy white buffalo I had a Native American in there. Huh Frank Lloyd Reed JP Henderson great homeless guy names Frank Lloyd Reed

He had to be the smartest one. He was the one definitely making like Garbage bag airplanes, right He was the one that the kids liked. Yeah, absolutely cardboard box mansions like, you know, you went you went to Lloyd No doubt about that All right, so now we are about to pick up Henry pick up with Henry. Where is he at? He's actually on the streets of skid row, right? Hey, so he's still he's still there and he is still walking down the streets of skid row Okay, and as you can notice from the audio that Henry's sent in he's getting winded

So let's hope he doesn't get too tired. I Got to say the streets of skid row really do smell like pee pee, but it really makes me homesick to be back in New York So that is nice the actual the actual pee smell It says me back, you know I'm just speaking of pee smell. I got a pee pretty fucking bad myself and I I don't know where I'm gonna go because the

hotel Cecil Will let me back inside Because they saw me take a pictures All right Well, I'm just gonna have to I gotta start wearing my last podcast in the left adventure divers Straight up walk around Glen Hill right now. I literally there is a there is a raccoon Sitting on top of a garbage can it's the middle of the day Raccoons are supposed to only come out at night. I'm starting to think I'm getting fall around my animals. I don't know what it is

I don't know if it's like a doctor do a little thing where they think that I can fucking talk to them Or they think I'm gonna help them. I don't know people that these animals think they're reaching out to me to be like hey Will you come and talk to my dad? I'm actually I'm Muriel Ramirez. I was called me. I'm Muriel Ramirez Will you please go to my daughter? I know now I have raccoon dick But please will you go to my daughter and tell her the gold is in the vault? It's like I find you to show me where this fucking vault is and I'll get it for your daughter And then I go and I pop in the vault and I get out of the gold And I just I quit everything I quit this I quit acting and I just go live with with gold

And have a good time I'm lonely out here. I don't know if you could tell that I'm up by a highway I Just walking around looking for a crime At least about time I get down to the hotel sassole I think it's about time I get over to the oh, it's the short No, it was but the short Spurps real hard. Oh, I

Got to go help Elizabeth short get released to heaven So My next location I'm driving around of course what is LA synonymous with and true crime the black dolly murders We've never really got a chance to cover it on the podcast because there's not much to cover to it There's you know besides one of the most grisly crime scenes ever recorded in true crime history Elizabeth short was of course found abandoned on a street cut in half Her face was scarred into a gruesome smile the breasts were cut open Because the guy wasn't a gentleman

And so now I'm driving down to this lovely what it seems to be very sweet residential neighborhood here in West Los Angeles Very I mean it's a bad neighborhood coming into it their address is here's 3831 South Norton Avenue I just took a picture of the exact spot where that body was dumped, which was next to a fire hydrant out here I'm kind of self-conscious to stay because a woman literally was looking out the windows as I stopped to take the picture And now I have a man who is following me and talking about that's fine. Where's this fine? I'm not getting followed I was paranoid. All right. I get all this weed called Charlie Sheen and it's very strong Um, it's almost too strong. I saw spider in the house yesterday And I thought it was a brown recluse, but then I was this someone's like a brown recluse is really big

But I don't know how the fuck am I supposed to know? Do I grow up in spiders? Right am I am I some kind of debug scientist? No No, I'm not Either way A lot Elizabeth short. I'm sure the boys are gonna fill in with even more information But she died a gruesome death and nobody knows why I don't believe she was a prostitute personally I just think she had dark hair and that was very upsetting for people at the time I'd love to find a place to stop so I could sit and talk

But I don't really know where I'm going and now dudes this man is following me There's a man that's been following me this entire time Since I left this house and stop took a picture So I think this is this is getting a little weird So I think I'm just gonna try and find a way to Lose this guy Up here in a sea of traffic Crunch up a little bit for making a room

Just sort of illuminate what happened to me while I was looking for the dumping ground of the Black Dahlia victim Elizabeth short So so I'm driving on one of this nice residential neighborhood in the middle of West Los Angeles And I'm driving around I pull up upon the address where she was dumped, which is 3831 Northroom Drive Over in the middle of this very nice neighborhood, which is like two blocks from an absolutely disgusting neighborhood in Los Angeles That happens a lot out here. It's like you drive down one block and you're like, oh my god I scared you here and then you go on the next block and There's a man like fingering himself Next to a trash can which I guess is no different than New York, but it's it's very surprising because it's fucking palm trees

well anyways And pull up to the address now these people must be very used to This happening because when I was researching the exact location of the dumping ground to find all these websites that had people Like laying on the grass like just like laying gold Like acting as if they were Elizabeth short and I do see how that could be Considered disrespectful, but let's just say I was just driving past taking pictures Kind of like a private investigator Which is what I fancied myself except for the fact that I was in pink shorts

And I was just sucking an iced coffee, but it was nice It was kind of a little vacation for me It was it's if this is a fun hobby for me to have out here Which is sad I try to describe it to people and they're like here Are you a murderer yourself? Is this you scoping out places for you to dump bodies and I'm just like no I'm the normal man People are honking me on the streets because I'm just because I'm talking it's you know It's not like it's normal. This isn't normal for me to be talking to my phone anyways, so I pull up To the side of the road and I'm taking pictures and a man comes running out of the house

This is why I was confused while I was sitting and recording and then runs in the house He jumps into his car He revs it up and he comes up from behind me. Basically nearly bumps my car We then proceed to drive around this neighborhood where he is about a foot from me Following me throughout the entire neighborhood turn after turn after turn just looking at me And then until finally we pulled up to a red light and there was a turnoff To a gas station and I just blew through the gas station this sort and lost them in traffic and I was like you know

You wasn't your family, you know, I mean Elizabeth short wasn't your family member I know you don't like people. I understand. I was taking pictures of your house. You know, I mean and I'm And I'm weird and I literally had a shirt with a With a reptilian on it. So, you know, I look like a disinfo agent Or I mean, you know, just a true crime tourist, which LA has Uh, we're an obnoxious lot. I understand that but There's no reason to try to kill me You know, I'm just searching for the truth

Good lord. All right. What an adventurous hat. Uh, what an adventure Henry is having so far Yeah, and he is at the side of the black dolly of murders and to give you a little bit of background on elizabeth short The uh victim herself. Uh, apparently in school and Henry is right. It's a boring case I don't care what anyone says. Well, it's a single murder and uh, well, it's the only thing interesting about the black dolly of murders is The gruesome crime scene itself. Well, I think it's interesting because she was cut with such precision. You know, it's very rare Usually these people are uh More like a kissles of browsky parks combination at a barbecue restaurant

I just tear in the the meat off the bones, but this guy he was uh, he was surgical about it She was posed in a very seductive way. Her face was slashed So that her smile went from ear to ear joker style, right? Uh, but she had the absolute worst part about it, which she would have been cut as you said with surgical precision Right in two right above her waist right in their brutal crime scene photos You can go and check them out And they said that the official cause of death was hemorrhage and shock to the concussion of the brain Enlacerations of the face which means that he she was knocked on the head. She was cut from a mouth to ear

And then died and the cut in half part was done post mortem And the guy who killed her of course would have to become a plastic surgeon He worked on the likes of bruce Jenner and he's worked with mickey roark. He ruins human bodies Yeah, he does in elizabeth short. She was known in high school as medford highs diana durbin diana durbin Yes medford's high diana durbin, you know the sky It's the limit the sky is the limit Uh, the sky isn't the limit.

I mean, of course, there's many different Suspects involved, but you know that we know that you know the her purse An id id was mailed to the police station Not a couple days after her murder Um, there is some pretty staunch evidence now that it was this doctor Uh, a woman came out and wrote a book basically saying that her father was the murderer
