  Speaker 1: turn into a couple of different episodes. I don't know
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: if I'm gonna call it a mini series or just
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: a bunch of episodes that kind of go together that
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: are about different things. We'll see how it goes. But
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: today we are going to meet a man named Randy Kraft.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Some may know him as the Scorecard Killer, among other monikers.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: And you may have stumbled across the podcast or to
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: discussing the disgusting brutality of his crimes. But you know
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: why you want to listen to the cosmic peach talk
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: about Randy Kraft over let's say, crime Junkies or forensic
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: files whatever. It's because you know that there's more to
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: the story, hidden facts and discarded information that will blow
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: this case wide open, and that you're never gonna hear
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: on the Makeup and Murders YouTube channel. Right, that's why
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: you're here, and I will not disappoint starting with the
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: moniker right. One of the things that has always bothered
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: me deeply is how these cucked, murderous retards get labeled
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: with these bitch and monikers that are meant to send
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: a chill down the spine of every unsuspecting American on
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: purpose right to stir up fear and sensationalism. The Hillside Stranglers,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: the Zodiac Killer, BTK buying torture kill son of Sam,
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: the Scorecard killer Oooo, I'm paying in my penies. Fuck
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: you right if these are just made up, fucking names
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: created to give this scary and villainous persona to Manchurian
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: candidates programmed by our own military. In most cases, I
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: feel I have the right to give them new monikers,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: monikers that more accurately reflect the person and or their crimes.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: Starting with Randy here, I gave it a lot of thought,
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: and the only suitable name for this human bag of
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: programmed dogshit is randyft Government Cheese anus Killer. Short, sweet, accurate,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: and to the point. Men like this do not get
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: to go down as the mega villain in the history books.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: Sorry not sorry. If it were your son, your brother,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: your husband who was murdered in this way, would you
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: want their murderer to become some kind of super villain
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: in History's scariest comic book. I don't think so. So
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: where do we begin to unravel the story of the
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: Government Cheese anus Killer from the beginning? I suppose. Randy
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: Stephenkraft born March nineteenth, nineteen forty five is an American
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: serial killer and rapist, known as, of course, the Scorecard Killer,
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: the Southern California Strangler, and the Killer, and more recently,
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: the Government Cheese anus Killer. He committed the rape, torture,
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: and murder of a minimum of sixteen young men between
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: nineteen seventy two and nineteen eighty three, the majority of
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: whom he killed in California. Randy Craft is also believed
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: to have committed the rape and murder of up to
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: fifty one other young men and boys. He was convicted
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: in May nineteen eighty nine and is currently incarcerated on
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: death row at San Quentin Rehabilitation Center in Marin County, California.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: So this particular cheese dick is still alive and in
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: San Quentin on death row. But there's so much we
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: need to unpack with this guy. So the Raft originally
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: became known as the Scorecard Killer because upon his arrest,
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: investigators discovered a coded list with sixty one entries on
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: a scorecard containing cryptic references to his victims. He is
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: also sometimes referred to as the freeway Killer because many
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: of his victims' bodies were discovered beside or near freeways.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: So let's break this down. Randy Craft was born in
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: Long Beach, California, again March nineteenth, nineteen forty five. Seemingly
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: normal parents, just like Bundy and Dahmer and all the
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: usual dipshits. Mom was an upstanding member of the Harper
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Valley PTA. If you know, you know, But if we
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: look closer, there's always something there to remind me, but
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: this is an inside job. So during Craft's college days
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: he enrolled in the Reserve Officers Training Corps and regularly
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: attended demonstrations in support of the Vietnam War, and in
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: nineteen sixty four he organized campaign rallies for Republican presidential
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: candidate Barry Goldwater. But I guess we'll just brush right
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: over that like all the other serial killer documentaries, because
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: there's no way. While in this Reserve Officers Training Corps,
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: he was scouted out as being a highly functioning psychopath
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: destined for great rectal adventures, but moving on. Also in
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: nineteen sixty four, Kraft began working as a bartender at
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: a local Garden Grove cocktail lounge that catered to gay clientele,
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: and he had a few flings with some dudes around
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: this time, but was still keeping his sexuality a secret
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: from his family. In nineteen sixty six, Craft was arrested
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: and charged with lewd conduct after propositioning an undercover police
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: officer in Huntington Beach, but as he had no previous
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: criminal record, no charges were filed. This is a reoccurring
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: trend with mister Government Cheese, as you will see as
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: the story progresses. So the following year he developed a
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: radical shift in his political beliefs, how odd, becoming an
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: ardent supporter of liberal views and eventually registering as a Democrat.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: In nineteen sixty seven. Craft quickly became a Democratic Party organizer,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: campaigning tirelessly for the election of Robert F. Kennedy and
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: receiving a personal letter from the Senator thanking him for
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: his efforts. Just like Gacy with his picture of him
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: in the First Lady, and just like Dahmer's mysterious connections
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: at the White House at an early age, this is
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: a red flag something that always gets swept across during
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: the usual serial killer documentary. So four months after graduating
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: from college, Craft joined the United States Air Force Stinging Ding,
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: Ding Ding, where he was sent to basic training in
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: Texas before being stationed at the one the only Edwards
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: Air Force Base in southern California, right alongside many of
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: our Laurel Canyon cast of characters. No coincidence there, I'm
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: sure this is where he supervised in the painting of
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: test planes. During his service in the Air Force, Craft
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: quickly rose to the rank of Airmen first class and
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: a supervisor manager. Red flag number two, wouldn't you say?
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: But so, then on July twenty sixth, nineteen sixty nine,
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Craft supposedly announced his sexual orientation to his superiors. He
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: was then granted a general discharge after only thirteen months
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: of service. His dismissal was officially listed as being on
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: medical grounds quote unquote, But I believe it was more
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: like he graduated the Program to Kill Academy and was
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: being sent on his way under the excuse of being gay. So,
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: like I said before, I do believe the psychopaths are
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: scouted early on and used in a variety of different ways.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: Government Cheese was said to have been a brilliant genius
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: with a high IQ. So after his time in the
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: Air Force, he fucking found employ with this aerospace firm
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: and worked doing that for the majority of his time,
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: ripping and running through dude's buttles. That cannot be a coincidence,
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: you guys, But so where does it all start? Government
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: cheese first known sexual assault was in March nineteen seventy,
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: not even a year after his discharge from the Program
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: to Kill Academy. Kraft encountered a thirteen year old boy
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: named Joseph Alvin Fancher, at Huntington Beach. Fancher explained to
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: Kraft that he had run away from home that day
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: and was just out and about. So Craft invited this
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: little boy to his apartment, promising to him that he
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: could live with him, and for some reason was offering
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: him sex with a woman he claimed to know, even
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: though this kid is literally only thirteen and so Fancier
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: agreed and accompanied Kraft to his Belmont Shore apartment, where
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: he was drugged, beaten, and repeatedly sexually assaulted. And hours
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: later Fancier somehow escaped from the apartment after Craft had
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: left to go to work. Basically, a random person was
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: concerned saw this kid wandering around, saw that Fancer had
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: been drugged and was disheveled and in a horrible condition,
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: and called an ambulance and so at the hospital, Fancer's
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: stomach needed to be pumped, and Fancer later informed police
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: that Craft had given him drugs and had beaten him,
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: and a search of Craft's apartment was conducted with the
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: cooperation of his roommate at the time. However, no charges
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: were ever filed, saved by the bell yet again government cheese.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: And this was the beginning of the end because we see,
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: much like in the case of Jeffrey Dahmer and Ted Bundy,
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: this guy keeps getting off the hook mysteriously. So between
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: nineteen seventy one and nineteen eighty three, Kraft is believed
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: to have killed sixty fucking seven men. All of his
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: suspected victims were male between the ages of fourteen and thirty,
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: the majority of whom were in their late teens to
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: mid twenties. But there is also something else that connects them,
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: which is odd. But so Craft was charged with and
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: convicted of only sixteen of these homicides, all of which
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: had occurred between nineteen seventy two and nineteen eighty three.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: Many of his victims were here's the catch members of
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: the United States Marine Corps, and most of their bodies
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: were found to have high levels of both alcohol and tranquilizers,
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: indicating that they had been unconscious when they were abused
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: and then killed. I mean, does this not screen program
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: to kill literally checks all the boxes. But what signals
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: this the most to me is the absolute horror of
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: what he did to his victims. This level of complete
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: disregard for human life can only come from one of
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: our fine military machines. So let's take a closer look.
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: Let's talk about Wayne Joseph Duckett. On October fifth, nineteen
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: seventy one, police found the nude body of a thirty
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: year old Long Beach resident named Wayne Joseph Duckett, discarded
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: close to the Ortega Highway. Duckett, a bartender at a
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: gay bar named The Stable in nearby Sunset Beach, had
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: last been seen alive on September twentieth. Unfortunately, he had
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: been out so long putrification had destroyed any signs of
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: play on the body. The cause of death was listed
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: as acute alcohol poisoning due to a very high blood
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: alcohol level. However, the first entry in Craft's journal referred
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: to as his scorecard Read's Stable quote unquote, leading investigators
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: to believe that Duckett was Craft's first murder victim. Fifteen
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: months after the murder of Duckett, Kraft killed a twenty
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: year old marine named Edward Daniel Moore. Moore was last
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: seen leaving the barracks at Camp Pendleton on December twenty fourth,
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: nineteen seventy two. His body was found beside the four
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: h five freeway in Seal Beach during the early hours
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: of December twenty sixth. Abrasions on Moore's body indicated that
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: he had been pushed from a moving vehicle. An autopsy
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: revealed he had been bound at the wrist end ankles,
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: then beaten with a blunt instrument about the face before
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: being garrotted. His body also exhibited numerous bitemarks, and a
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: sock had been forced into his rectum. The bee hole
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: sock is going to be very important. Just wait, so.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: Six weeks after the murder of Moore, on February sixth,
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: nineteen seventy three, the body of an unidentified male estimated
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: to be between seventeen and twenty five years old, was
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: found alongside the Terminal Island Freeway in Wilmington. This victim
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: had been strangled with a ligature and also had a
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: sock violently inserted into his bee hole. Now. Two months later,
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: on April fourteenth, the body of seventeen year old Kevin
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: Clark Bailey was found beside a road in Huntington Beach.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: Bailey had been emasculated and sodomized prior to his murder.
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: What does it mean to be emasculated? Okay? I had
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: an idea of what this could be A fancy way
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: of saying, and yes, upon googling, it means that their
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: penis and ball bag were ripped off before death. What
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: a way to die, folks, I mean, really, but so,
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: by July twenty eighth, a further two victims had been murdered,
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: an unidentified youth whose dismembered body was found in Wilmington
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: on April twenty second, and a twenty year old named
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: Ronnie Jean Weeb, whose strangled body was discarded beside an
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: on ramp of the four or five Freeway on July thirtieth,
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: two days after he had disappeared. And Kraft is known
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: to have killed at least once more in nineteen seventy three.
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: So the last known victim in nineteen seventy three was
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: a twenty three year old bisexual art student named Vincent
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: Cruz Mestus, whose body was found in the San Bernardino
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: Mountains on December twenty ninth. As with several previous victims,
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: one of the victim socks had been violently forced into
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: his biole Mestus hand had also been severed from his
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: body and was never found. So by November nineteen seventy four,
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: five more victims had been found beside or close to
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: major roadways in southern California, three of whom had been
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: conclusively linked to the same killer via beehole socks. Two
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: of these victims, twenty year old Malcolm Eugene Little and
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: nineteen year old James Dale Reeves, had each been found
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: beside a freeway with foreign objects inserted into their bodies,
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: whereas the body of the third victim, eighteen year old
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: marine Roger Edward Dickerson, bore evidence of bitemarks, much like
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: several earlier victims. On January third, nineteen seventy five, Kraft
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: abducted and murdered a seventeen year old high school student
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: named John William Leross. The youth was last seen boarding
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: a bus in Long Beach. His strangled body was found
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: the following day, discarded at Sunset Beach with an undisclosed
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: foreign object protruding from anus. I guess we're just supposed
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: to use our imagination on that one. Also, drag marks
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: along the beach close to where his body was found
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: suggested that two individuals had carried Leros's body into the water.
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: Much like the stories of many programmed killers, we're most
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: likely dealing with multiple assailants here. So. Two weeks after
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: this murder, on January seventeenth, the body of a twenty
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: one year old named Craig Jonatis was found discarded in
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: the parking lot of the Golden Sales Hotel near the
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: Pacific Coast Highway and Lions Drive in Long Beach. Jonatis
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: had been strangled to death with a length of string,
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: possibly a shoelace. By January nineteen seventy five, a total
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: of fourteen victims had been linked to the same killer,
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: their bodies having been found discarded across four separate counties
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: over the previous three years. All the victims had been
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: Caucasian males with similar physical characteristics. Some investigators believed the
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: murders to be the work of more than one individual,
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: much like the Son of Sam that we discussed in
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: the Program to Kill series and Ted Bundy couldn't be
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: in two places at once right. Investigators also believed one
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: or both killers had to have had a military background,
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: as two victims had tissue paper residue in their nostrils,
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: a procedure known to be used in the military to
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: prevent bodies from purging after death. What about the bee
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: hole socks, well, The insertion of sock inside the victim's
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: rectums was also theorized to have been intended to prevent
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: purging as the body was driven to the disposal location.
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: So again, Kraft was supposed to be in charge of
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: what again in the military painting test planes. Wondering the
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: painting lessons, did the shoving socks in a dead man's
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: beethole come up? I mean, I'm no rocket scientist, but
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: I feel like those two things do not come up
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: in the same class. But what do I know? Right?
