The sad thing about being a restaurant worker is sometimes telling folks that you’re out of their favorite item is all the motive a mad man needs to let loose.
This reminds me of the time when popeyes chicken sandwich came out and was brand new and everyone was dieing to try it. Until someome actually died for skipping the line in the restaurant and someone felt some kinda way and it went out into the parking lot and one of the two got stabbed to death. Resulting in the killer arrested for life and the victim dead so neither got to ever try the sandwich
Working at a restaurant.. you literally never know who you're dealing with.. My family's restuarant had a columbian drug dealer get executed mid-dinner in the 90s only a few years after they opened...
I hate it when criminals are caught and claim to be innocent. They've been caught and the evidence backs it up and they're never coming out. Why not give the grieving families closure and just tell the truth?
They’re hoping they’ll get out one day if the keep saying they’re innocent. Some guilty people really think that they’ll be let free if they keep up the act.
@@terrainegrace17 some people actually delude themselves into thinking they didn't do. Mostly brought on from trauma orr sudden realisation of what they've done which leads them to denial and shifting the blame onto someone else.
Do you think killers care about the victim’s family’s feelings? If you admit it looks worse on you and the family won’t hate you less because you admitted
My oldest sister was the manager of this KFC,but was not on duty that night because the manager on duty wanted to trade shifts with her that night. She knew every person killed that night,and trained all but one. Soon after,she decided that 'this job just isn't worth it anymore'?
Most people when stretching their videos to 10 minutes fill it with nonsense. Info graphics on the other hand fills it with interesting information. Thank you for that
I worked in Kilgore oilfield and heard about this story. By the way, Kilgore and the oilfield area is a dense pine forest where you can’t see much of the oil rigs even at night. It is about 500 miles away from west Texas desert.
This is my home town and all the old folks say that every one knows exactly what happened and who never got in any trouble because of who their families were. The local take on it is pretty wild
@@laurieb3703 they basically said James mankins jr (He is the son of a former Texas state representative) did it but he was only held in the county jail for a while and was released. My mom was driving a car and saw him walking so she picked him up the day he got release from the jail. If he did do it, that would’ve been terrifying for my mother to be in the same car with him.
It was probably James Mankins Jr but since he is the son of a former Texas state representative, they won’t arrest him. He was held in a county jail for a while after the murders but he wasn’t put in prison.
Seeing the title be like: So it was the story of Richard from hotline Miami before turning into one of jacket mind characters and before going to Miami?
I’m from Kilgore and I first heard about this in high school and Kilgore police kept the nail and fingerprint and the oilfield isn’t that visible there like the derricks are. That kfc is now an eye doctor office
fun fact the white man who was accused is my grandfather:) biggest flex in tha wrld . r.i.p jim mankins youll forever be known🕊️💙‼️💯 best grandfather in the world .
My grandma told me about this awhile ago she said she was supposed to work that night but her mom made her stay home because she had a bad feeling about her going in that night I'm glade she didn't go in
heyyyyyyyy im from Tyler,TX/lindale area as well is there a big law enforcement employee with the last name pinkerton i bet there related there .....btw im a Kansan now lol
@@aaroniahevans3265 That name sounds familiar but I haven't lived there in a while. I have been all over the world and now I am in Wisconsin. That name does sound really familiar though. I knew a guy named Pingston in Germany so that may be what I am thinking of.
Hey guys, I live in Tyler Texas, and I worked at kfc on the loop and troup up until tonight, got fired for concealed carrying.......I consider my self lucky to have not ended up like the victims here in this video tho....you'd think they'd learn there lesson from not letting there employees carry back in the 80's but no, if your working in KFC your on the front lines unarmed because they do not have a problem with costomers open carrying but employees are forbidden from carrying even concealed
As someone native to the area and grew up hearing about this all my life I just want to say that Kilgore is in the middle of the east Texas piney woods region and it is literally surrounded by trees and grassy cow pastures, not the desert. At least get your environment backgrounds correct.

That was a crazy time. Wasn’t it back in 2018? Or 17?
That actually happened near where I lived at the time in oxon hill, Maryland
@@Karlos1234ify most likely i know it was in recent years its nothing old. It’s whatever year the sandwich got announced
Wow really? My family loves the sandwich but we were patient and did not fight to eat it ASAP.
No offence americans but the obesed food addicts in that country are insane. This is why fast food is a toxic cuisine for any country to have lol.

If they have DNA evidence, why don't they do that process of trying to link it to a relative via the 23 & Me thing?
DNA evidence can be planted. It was probably just a precaution.
Some of those companies do notcooperate with police. They probably have tried but have found a match
@@dwlopez57 they all cooperate with the police... especially the popular one "23 and Me"
Most people have never tried those services, I think.

If two of the suspects were captured then why aren't they telling the cops who the third guy is? Are they that loyal to him?
Some criminals don't snitch. there's a non zero chance that the evidence is planted as well.
@@genericscout5408
Planted evidence? You mean the two suspects may not even be the true culprits?
It was probably James Mankins Jr but since he is the son of a former Texas state representative, they won’t arrest him. He was held in a county jail for a while after the murders but he wasn’t put in prison.
This title is (Christopher Walken voice) outrageous
😂
No.
Maybe talk about the Aurora Colorado shooting in 1993 next? Its pretty interesting. It actually happened at a Chuck E Cheese.
What next shooting at McDonald's
This makes me glad that I'm just about done working night shift at Krispy Kreme, and that I'm moving back to mornings and afternoons
im glad i dont live in america

Well when you name a place 'Kilgore' you're just asking for this to happen.
The animation is getting better
My grandma told me about this awhile ago she said she was supposed to work that night but her mom made her stay home because she had a bad feeling about her going in that night I'm glade she didn't go in
That's interesting
yes you should be very "glade" she didn't go
You should talk about the shooting that occured at showbiz pizza place!!! Plz really would love it :D

Thanks, I’ve never heard anything about this case before!
My favourite part of these videos is when the people say blah blah blah
The animation makes it hard to take videos like this seriously. Especially the "blah blah blah" and when the characters react to something. 🤣
Monty Sanders reminds me of the guy who portrays Dr. Strange in the MCU.
Early gang lol, hello all
Heyyo 🍀🍀
Yo yo yo
Hey guys
Yo
What’s up
I enjoy the fact that Infographics drew a 2000s van for an 80s crime
I live near and work in Kilgore never heard of this.
*The video shld be sponsored by KFC* 😂😂
Well, why didn't he tell the police who the real killer is then? Then he might just got released if what he said was real.
The animation improvements, such as the jowls, look like whiskers. Haha. Still, great work, as always, TIS.
Amazing video as always :)
Great video as always ✅
Woah, I live in Kilgore and have never heard of this story.... And it's a small town too!
Am excited to watch this
Finger Lickin Good video. Nice work, Infographics, for this kinda content
Love you infografics
My grandfather worked there at that place but wasn’t working on that day
This happened like 10 mins away from where I live now although I wasn’t born until 94’ still a crazy story
Love this channel
Not sure how many people noticed but at 3:24 I laughed at the guy’s hat when he was nodding
So there were people in the chicken!?
One of my professors is from Killgore and I think she lived there at the time! I need to ask her about this, that's nuts
This sounds like the Burger Chef Murders
I live here and I’ve heard about this before but never got the whole story. It’s so cool to hear about this
I have no idea if any one here will know what I’m talking about, but I’m an O and A fan and “Opie Hughes” about made me cry from laughter 😂
Great video
Infografist from South Africa
Is it sad that I live in Longview which is literally right next to Kilgore
Ahh yes, KFC. Kentucky Fried Children.
Get your Kentucky’s Fat Children today! For only $7.99!
Killing 5 people of such a small sum doesn't make any sense...
Definitely never been in Brazil
The sad thing is I live in Kilgore

3:03 lol funny
It's weird how this crime and the Burger Chef massacre are basically the same.
The Burger Chef crime was even more complicated actually
@@stanleymcmillan4389 True but the crimes are nearly identical, makes you wonder if it wasn't a serial killer(s).
I thought it was gonna be how KFC is murdering chickens.
i thought it was gonna be a KFC assassination thing or something
Shame that third shooter is still out there. Maybe one day they'll be caught. Great video.
I feel like they couldn’t find who did it! They just arrested someone innocent to close the case!
the animations are awesome
brooo im from kilgore and i have heard of it but never actually believed it 😳
Its only been 17 minutes how did this get so many views so quickly
Patreon people maybe
Throws me off when you re upload old stuff
Im from indianapolis this sounds just like the burger chef murders
You guys should do the McDonald’s massacre from Sydney, Nova Scotia
That's crazy story. I kinda wonder what it be like if they found out about the Poeyes Chicken Sandwich if someone was killed for that.
As someone native to the area and grew up hearing about this all my life I just want to say that Kilgore is in the middle of the east Texas piney woods region and it is literally surrounded by trees and grassy cow pastures, not the desert. At least get your environment backgrounds correct.
These people never have facts
u could’ve given them fingers 😂😂😂
Monty Landers survived and is Benedict Cumberbatch now
Can you do an episode on the mass shooting that happened in Nova Scotia?
I need to ask can u do the video what if u where immortal in the time of Black Death (the pluge)
plague ?
i love their intros
If I lived in a town that was straight up called Kilgore, I wouldn’t be supervised if something like this happened
This reminds me of Breaking Bad’s character Gus Fring
That monty looks a lot like Benedict Cumberbatch.
i never knew about this case until i came upon it on youtube i will look further into this
When you do a video on the city I go to college in in and live right next to and you had family members who worked on this case
I saw this on Half as Interesting a few weeks ago
That channel is annoying now.
