      @@LadyGreyBlack Exactly! People were rejected by their families in that era - left, right and, center - for what they called "tough love". It obviously still happens. What this actually means is that there are a bunch of homeless kids in the US, most of them LBGTQ, living in *literal* encampments at the edge of society. This is hopefully getting better as we try to talk about it, but was really horrifying back then. People try to pretend like our grandparents had something figured out, but it's really confusing when you've grown up among people who lived this way. The real "monsters" that "ruined society" (if you could say that there are any monsters among a pack of impulsive, self-centered idiots) are the mothers and fathers who could abandon an entire generation with such callous, mindless waste.

    it makes me think, if she was essentially homeless, hitch hiking across the country for eight whole months, how was her hygiene so well kept? in her autopsy they said she had great teeth, her nails were clipped and over all that she had to come from a middle class family for her to take care of herself so well. could she have been staying with someone? someone who had the money to support her? if so why haven’t they come forward with that information if they don’t have anything to do with what happened to her. idk just a thought.

      It's a horrid thought but if she were being prostituted, her pimp would have made sure her hygiene was acceptable to potential clients because she'd be worth more. Particularly to the sort of client who would want to have sex with a 14 year old, keeping her looking like a "girl next door" type would be lucrative.
      And if she'd been trafficked, of course her pimp wouldn't come forward.
      Makes me wonder if she'd had a john who offered to help her out of the life and arranged to meet her at the prison farm.

I think movie's have brainwashed y'all and or homeless folk's with mental illness have really reaped your brains because myself and many other streets folks of Hollywood California we always were cleaned and groomed.. Toothbrush & toothpaste $2 very inexpensive a bar of soap $1 again cheap and it's called using restrooms to clean yourself up but if it happens to be a restroom with stalls then use the stall meant for the handicapped and use your cleaning supplies to clean yourself with a wet wash cloth and dry the floor with paper towels..
      If you can't afford such item's then a church will happily supply these item's to you and for clothes it sounds wrong but people drop clothes off at goodwill so at night time take those bags NOT ALL OF THEM but some of them but if that's not your thing then a church or else a shelter will provide clean clothes even some shelters will provide you a washing/drying machine to wash all your clothes..

    Here is what I think is odd: The unknown girl in the online photograph was in the right place around the right time with a similar story and still hasn't come forward. Also, her necklace mysteriously vanishes in police custody. If there was a connection at the prison, I am willing to bet it was a guard, not an inmate.
    1. How would a 14 year old get in touch with an inmate? She would have had to have a mutual friend but if that was the case, why would she be meeting them there, upon release without this friend or a car? Now of it was a guard, they could have easily met her at a store or a street corner and promised her a place to stay or some other help, if she met him at the prison. A guard would know the layout of the surrounding area near the prison and usually it is pretty open and empty. If he were a preditor, it would be a great way to make sure you were in a private and familiar place. All he would have to do is give her some story about how he needed to get things ready for her and he lived near said prison.
    2. That other girl either has to be a lie or significant because it is unliely it is a coincidence, it is just too similar. If he was a guard who worked at the prison, he would have been able to lure multiple girls, an inmate could not have done this.
    3. Speaking as someone who worked in the field, most prison guards and security officers also work as, or have friends who work as, police officers. If this was the case, it would make it crazy easy to obtain a necklace, that may have been overlooked and may help to identify her. Also, the person had enough knowledge to know how not to leave evidence...most spacifically to stop bleeding and move her body. I know it sounds like murder 1 on 1 here but in many of these cases people don't think to stop the bleeding or even move the body. Moving the body is usually done when there is a relationship/location that needs to be covered up (like a someone kills thier spouse at home) or when the person knows what they are doing. We don't know where she was killed, it is possible she could have made it to the prison or even the guys house, been killed there and transported to I45. Also, the lack of seaman suggests one of 3 things, either a famale killer, an impotent male or someone who knew it would be evidance and had enough control and sadism to use a large, blunt object instead.
    Finally, it is weak but a point that should not be ruled out, she was assaulted with a large blunt object. Now, an inmate, doctor or other prison worker might be hard pressed to find something like that at or near a prison but guards are able to carry batons and lets be honest, if it was a guard, he might just be arrogent enough to assume that nobody would suspect him, since he is "one of the good guys" it is just a theory but I think it should be looked into. Could have even been a female guard.

    I was familiar with her case but didn't know she had been identified. Like you, I have always believed that she most likely was hitch hiking and was picked up by a truck driver and I think that the driver initially saw her at the truck stop although it may not have been inside. Learning her age does make her case even more difficult to comprehend. She was just a child navigating throughan adult world. Since her death was now close to 41? 42? years ago, I suspect her killer is no longer living. Either way, may they burn in hell for eternity.

Probably male though, as most of these cases are done by males. What kind of monster would do this to a 14-year-old girl? The state took her from a loving home and basically messed up her life. They should have solved the problem at the point where it was, and not put her in jeopardy by removing her from her home, her support, and all she knew.

    Hi, Gabby, I just wanted to say that you do amazing work and I am officially addicted to your channel. Keep it up.
    I'm wondering do you know if serial killer Robert Ben Rhoades was ruled out as a possible suspect in Sherri's case as well as any of the other unfortunate women discussed in this episode?
    The reason I ask is because he was a truck driver and Sherri was last seen alive at a truck stop. He was in his mid 30s at the time of the murders of Sherri, Debra Jackson aka Orange Socks (assuming it was NOT Henry Lee Lucas who murdered her) and the Harris County Jane Does.
    Even though the horrendous crimes that Rhoades was convicted of didn't happen until over a decade later after Sherri's murder, there is still the strong possibility that he committed many more murders under the radar for years if not decades plus some of he murders he was convicted of did occur in Texas so he may very well have been familiar with the killing fields there. Not to mention at least one of his victims was 14 so it's not as if he was above raping, torturing and killing a child. Plus he is still alive at 78 as of me typing this so it should be relatively easy to get a DNA sample from him.

    I grew up around outlaw bikers and wild cat truckers. I don't know how it is now( i get the feeling things are more organized and structured) but back in the 70s and 80s truckers were an odd breed. At best they were eccentric and at worst had genuine mental issues (with a lot of vets with PTSD mixed in). In general they were people that couldn't function in a structured workplace and trucking was one of the few professions they had any chance of holding a job in. So I have no problem believing there were more than a few serial killers among them.

      @Toby Leonard It's also possible there was a woman traveling with a truck driver. If they had picked Sherri up as a hitch hiker and for some reason the woman became jealous of Sherri. How she managed to travel that far without coming across a nurturing person who would try taking her under their wing or give her a safe place to stay until she sorted out her life? Running away is always dangerous

Also one of the weapons used to assault her could have been one which is commonly used by prison guards & police.

    so if she was hitchhiking to the prison could she have been picked up by someone who worked there? Someone who wore a uniform so appeared trustworthy, the killer dumped her body in the opposite direction to throw off investigators. She asked for directions two times I doubt she went the wrong way, but she may have been picked up hitch hiking

Or was it just being used at a meeting place for someone completely unconnected with the prison? Maybe someone she knew told her they were visiting someone at the prison and for her to come meet them there.

    @OliviaLovesPugs Год назад

    I do not believe the killer was a woman, but rather a man who was impotent. This would explain the use of an object during the rape. The sheer brutality of the crime would suggest the murderer felt a lot of hatred towards the victim, either directly or as a placeholder person to release his hatred on of a specific individual or women in general. This hatred could have been born out of the man’s impotence getting in the way of his success with women. Maybe he was embarrassed or made fun of or rejected by a woman or women due to his impotence at some point, or maybe he felt he would never be able to find a woman that would accept him due to his condition. This could have caused him to develop a hatred for all women for “denying him access”, similar to the modern incel mindset. So, he could have decided to sexually assault a girl and “take from her what women wouldn’t give him”, and “take what he couldn’t have”. He may have wanted to make women feel as powerless and without control as he felt that they made him feel.
    It’s also possible that recurrent abuse, possibly sexual, at the hands of a woman during childhood could be the underlying cause of the impotence, the hatred, and the desire to hold power over women, and he may have been taking his hatred of this abuser out on other women to “fill her place”. He may be trying to make women feel powerless, and unable to stop a sexual assault against them, just as a woman in his past may have made him feel.
    The murderer’s focus on the rape and its brutality in this crime suggests to me that this crime was definitely sexually motivated, and the assault and torture and killing was a way for the murderer to make himself feel powerful and in control over a woman, something which he may feel is lacking in his daily life. The way she was dumped, nude and beaten and nameless, beside a highway like she was trash, also suggests the murderer wanted to humiliate and degrade his victim as much as he could, as a final act of power over her and potentially to “get back” at women in the past who may have humiliated him.
    It’s also very doubtful that someone who committed a crime this brutal to a child would return to a normal life in society without harming others again before or afterwards, or at the very least get into trouble with the law in some way. I do tend to lean towards the theory of there being at least one serial killer who had been active in the I-45 area during the time period when this murder took place; this murder also strikes me as one that was committed by someone who had previously killed or would later kill more people due to the severity, which fits with the theory. Even if it wasn’t an “I-45 serial killer” that took her life, but rather someone who happened to be in the area at the time and took advantage of a lone young teen, I’m definitely thinking that she wasn’t this person’s only victim. And the amount of other women and girls close to her age found dumped near where she was discovered suggests at least some, although not necessarily all of the victims, were killed by the same person(s).
    Obviously, everything I’ve just said is pure speculation and theorizing from someone with no formal training in anything to do with this subject, but I just thought I’d share the thoughts I had while listening to the details of the case.

    I could imagine Sherri becoming pen pals with an inmate who fed her a story about how he was an outlaw but not a bad person, just like she was on the run from the law but not bad. He could have lied about his record, and asked her to meet him when he was released. So, was anyone released from the prison the day Sherri was going there to meet someone? Surely that possibility was thoroughly investigated?

    The saddest part of habitual truancy is that it's often based in undiagnosed learning disabilities. Some children just give up. I was dyslexic in the "good old days". Also, men who have rage because they cannot "perform" also resort to object-rape.

    • @sandilou2U

      I also believe there is a strong possibility it was a man who could not obtain an erection. Possibly he still had a sexual drive and the loss of being able to satisfy that drive created a burning rage. I don't know why but I envision an oldt truck driver who was wounded in the Vietnam war. Of course, it is probably due to seeing too many many movies.

      I was a habitual tardy child(specifically during my 6th grade year) and that was simply due to the fact I was being bullied(despite not being as bullied the previous school year due to starting to stand up for myself & literally fighting everybody back) and honestly didn't want to be at school for shit to put the cherry on top of it all.. I had back then n' still do have a learning disability which now I'm diagnosed ADD, Narcolepsy & Bipolar and eventually my school took my parents to court to face a sheriff, judge and some other people so after that my parent's were put under a microscope for a good moment until my attendance got better.
      I almost forgot to mention they pretty much forced my parents to take a parenting class so stupid🙄

This is so extra sad because none of this would have happened if she hadn't been taken away from her family. Truancy is such a stupid reason to take a kid away. What we need is more educational options to reach people who need a different approach to prepare for life. Taking her away from her family and sending her to court sounds like making it all her fault which is pretty hard to believe since she was 13.

    I feel like she was meeting someone who worked at the prison, because without any identification she wouldn't have been allowed in. Plus, she would've had to have been on the visitor sheets right? No adult man/woman who is looking to have a sexual encounter with a 13/14yr old is actually going to admit to it. They probably didn't have CCTV back then either. Would definitely be looking into who was employed at the prison at the time or possibly a contract worker.
