  Speaker 1: My twin brother, who's fifty one years old, found a
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: job on Craigslist as a farm caretaker. Dear Cambridge.
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: It's an aspect of unfair play, using technology like craigslists
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: to lure men and then find themselves in horrific situations.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: I've been looking through newspaper articles and shawl the one
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: about the man that was loured and had been shot.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: This is just too pose to what my brother was
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: going there for.
• 0:51
  Speaker 4: But he found the job on Craiglist too.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: Yes you did.
• 0:56
  Speaker 5: I knew there was a dark side, but not to
• 1:00
  Speaker 5: the extent that it turned out to be.
• 1:03
  Speaker 6: It occurs to Richard Beasley, what if I do this
• 1:08
  Speaker 6: as my next career.
• 1:11
  Speaker 7: When I turned around mister Gag who was in kind
• 1:13
  Speaker 7: of mister Beasley, did he seemed to be dead?
• 1:16
  Speaker 8: Yes, he was dead.
• 1:17
  Speaker 9: It hit me really hard.
• 1:19
  Speaker 5: He was a wolf in cheap's clothing. I thought it,
• 1:22
  Speaker 5: and guess what I was right.
• 2:03
  Speaker 10: Akron Ohio was once the buckle on America's industrial belt.
• 2:08
  Speaker 9: Akron used to be a really booming city. It was
• 2:11
  Speaker 9: a rubber capital the.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: Turn of the century, nineteen hundreds. You couldn't have found
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: a more bustling and important area to the world economy.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: But times changed, and certainly as a lot of jobs
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: have been automated and left. You know, we felt it
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: harder than most and it's hard to remember what a
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: different world we were in in the end of twenty eleven,
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: and Ohio was harder hit than many other states. So
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: there was a lot of people feeling a lot of pain,
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: a lot of employment pain, and a lot of people
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: looking for opportunities wherever they could.
• 2:46
  Speaker 10: Craigslist is booming as a website where people can find anything,
• 2:50
  Speaker 10: even a job. In the fall of twenty eleven, more
• 2:53
  Speaker 10: than one hundred people responded to an ad posted on
• 2:56
  Speaker 10: the site by Richard Beasley.
• 2:59
  Speaker 6: It's three dollars week. They have a trailer they can
• 3:03
  Speaker 6: live on.
• 3:04
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 3:04
  Speaker 6: The only drawbacks are, hey, you know, your cell phone
• 3:07
  Speaker 6: probably isn't going to work, and you got to want
• 3:10
  Speaker 6: to be by yourself because you're kind of going to
• 3:11
  Speaker 6: be off the grid.
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: This is a.
• 3:15
  Speaker 6: Difficult time financially. We had the two thousand and eight
• 3:18
  Speaker 6: kind of home crisis, and there are a lot of
• 3:21
  Speaker 6: people who were really in very difficult financial straits.
• 3:26
  Speaker 10: Fifty six year old Ralph Geiger is one example. He's
• 3:29
  Speaker 10: living in a homeless shelter, having lost the construction company
• 3:33
  Speaker 10: he used to run. He applies for Richard Beasley's job
• 3:36
  Speaker 10: on the farm in Caldwell, Ohio.
• 3:39
  Speaker 6: This is somebody who's down on his luck for the
• 3:41
  Speaker 6: past few years. This guy had a good history of working,
• 3:44
  Speaker 6: but now he's in a bad place. He's desperate for work.
• 3:47
  Speaker 6: He's going to look for a job in the library
• 3:49
  Speaker 6: every day.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: This is someone who who says, Wow, I'm looking on Craigslist.
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: This opportunity exists for me to have a new life,
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: perfect job. I'm going to drive and take my possessions there.
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: I'm going to get interviewed, and then I'm going to
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: find this wonderful outcome that's going to give me a
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: fresh start.
• 4:10
  Speaker 10: Countless other men like Ralph are also interested in the
• 4:13
  Speaker 10: job and the chance to start a new life. David Polly,
• 4:17
  Speaker 10: Scott Davis, and Tim Kern are all unemployed and hope
• 4:22
  Speaker 10: Beasley's advert could be just the break they need. Richard
• 4:27
  Speaker 10: Beasley will arrange to meet and interview all of them.
• 4:32
  Speaker 10: Most of them will end up dead. They never really
• 4:39
  Speaker 10: knew the man who posted the ad.
• 4:44
  Speaker 6: So Richard Beasley reportedly was physically abused by his stepfather,
• 4:48
  Speaker 6: came out later that he had been sexually abused by
• 4:50
  Speaker 6: some neighbors, and so he really did start out I
• 4:53
  Speaker 6: think with some pretty significant trauma. He was interested in
• 4:56
  Speaker 6: school to some extent. He had said at one point
• 5:00
  Speaker 6: that it was important to have Christians as friends because
• 5:02
  Speaker 6: they would always vouch for you. And so I think
• 5:05
  Speaker 6: from an early age we see a little bit of
• 5:07
  Speaker 6: Richard Beasley kind of realizing that two year around and
• 5:13
  Speaker 6: how you pretend to be it can really get you places.
• 5:17
  Speaker 10: Richard graduates from high school in nineteen seventy six and
• 5:20
  Speaker 10: trains to become a machinist, but he quickly loses interest.
• 5:25
  Speaker 6: So he moves to Texas, has a job or two
• 5:27
  Speaker 6: that are legitimate, and then quickly kind of gives that
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: up and really becomes a prolific burglar. He is arrested
• 5:34
  Speaker 6: for that, and you know, the judge throws the book
• 5:37
  Speaker 6: at him when he receives like forty years in prison.
• 5:40
  Speaker 6: He only though, does about four so he is released
• 5:43
  Speaker 6: and he goes back to Ohio. He meets his wife.
• 5:48
  Speaker 6: They're both avid motorcycle enthusiasts.
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: My name's Tina Beasley.
• 5:53
  Speaker 5: I'm sixty two years old and I is married to
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: Richard Beasley. Was an instant attraction for both of us.
• 6:03
  Speaker 5: Me I fell for them gorgeous blue eyes, oh and him.
• 6:10
  Speaker 5: I'm not sure why he fell for me, but it
• 6:14
  Speaker 5: was instant.
• 6:15
  Speaker 4: I mean we clicked instantly.
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: And then it wasn't too long after date and I
• 6:21
  Speaker 5: became pregnant, so we decided to get married.
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: We had a biker wedding.
• 6:29
  Speaker 5: Basically my family was there, his family was there, but
• 6:34
  Speaker 5: everybody else was from our mutual biker friends.
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: Three days later, Tanya was born.
• 6:44
  Speaker 9: My name is Tanya Beasley. I'm thirty years old, and
• 6:48
  Speaker 9: Richard Beasley is my father. My dad was a really
• 6:52
  Speaker 9: goofy dad. He liked to have fun. He would actually
• 6:55
  Speaker 9: get down and kind of use his imagination with me
• 6:58
  Speaker 9: when we were drawing. It was story telling and dragons
• 7:02
  Speaker 9: and monsters and all that kind of cool stuff. Like
• 7:06
  Speaker 9: I actually felt like he was a kid like me,
• 7:08
  Speaker 9: just having fun.
• 7:10
  Speaker 10: With a new family. Tina wants to leave the biker
• 7:13
  Speaker 10: gang that she and Richard are members of, but Richard
• 7:17
  Speaker 10: wants to stay.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: Matthew the lifestyle motorcycle gang is a close knit community,
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: you know, they are very tight knit. They don't let
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: it outsiders, even if it becomes violent. Often involved in drugs.
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: At that time, we were seeing a lot of meth
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: moving through motorcycle gangs.
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: He was a good bother. He was good to me.
• 7:38
  Speaker 4: He had a paycheck every week, bills.
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: Were paid, but I had no clue what he was doing.
• 7:47
  Speaker 5: And then I found out he wasn't working. The paychecks wasn't.
• 7:52
  Speaker 4: Real, and then I knew what he was doing for
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: a living.
• 7:58
  Speaker 10: In the mid nineteen with Tanya, a little girl, Richard
• 8:02
  Speaker 10: becomes involved in illegal firearms.
• 8:05
  Speaker 9: While my dad was being this ideal father from the outside,
• 8:10
  Speaker 9: he actually at the time was breaking and entering. He
• 8:13
  Speaker 9: was illegally selling weapons. So it looks like he was
• 8:17
  Speaker 9: doing the right thing, But he kind of had a
• 8:19
  Speaker 9: double life in a sense too. He was a father
• 8:22
  Speaker 9: but also a really good con man. Even just from the.
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: Start, everything was doing good until they come to arrest him.
• 8:34
  Speaker 5: At that time, I had to have a hysterectomy I
• 8:38
  Speaker 5: got out of the surgery and there was no rich
• 8:42
  Speaker 5: no page from him, no call from him.
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: He just disappeared.
• 8:56
  Speaker 5: They had raided dar Allison ripped up my ouches looking
• 9:02
  Speaker 5: for weapons.
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: Oh, I was mad.
• 9:14
  Speaker 9: I do remember being all dressed up for the court
• 9:16
  Speaker 9: date and having to hug him and say bye. But
• 9:20
  Speaker 9: I didn't realize what four It was more and more
• 9:27
  Speaker 9: of real As I got older.
• 9:32
  Speaker 5: I knew there was a dark side, but not to
• 9:36
  Speaker 5: the extent that it turned out to be.
• 9:49
  Speaker 10: Richard Beasley is behind bars for dealing drugs and carrying
• 9:52
  Speaker 10: illegal weapons. In two thousand and three, he's released early,
• 9:57
  Speaker 10: and twelve year old Tanya is unaware her mother or
• 10:00
  Speaker 10: filed for divorce.
• 10:02
  Speaker 5: We had the perfect family life for her sake. We
• 10:05
  Speaker 5: stayed together, but we separated. He was very upset about it.
• 10:11
  Speaker 5: Even to this day, rich still has not come to
• 10:14
  Speaker 5: terms the dy divorced him. We still tried to be friends.
• 10:20
  Speaker 5: It wasn't like it was before. I just didn't trust him.
• 10:25
  Speaker 10: But after his release, Richard Beasley swears he's now a
• 10:29
  Speaker 10: changed man.
• 10:30
  Speaker 6: While he is in prison, during the seven year stint,
• 10:34
  Speaker 6: Richard Beasley finds God, He reads the Bible, He memorizes
• 10:39
  Speaker 6: Bible verses, and when he gets out, he tells his
• 10:44
  Speaker 6: daughter and other people that his life is changed and
• 10:47
  Speaker 6: he is going to spend the rest of his life
• 10:51
  Speaker 6: helping other people.
• 10:52
  Speaker 10: Beasley puts his newfound faith into action on Akron streets.
• 10:57
  Speaker 10: He becomes a self styled pastor and even earns the
• 11:00
  Speaker 10: nickname Chaplin rich.
• 11:02
  Speaker 9: There were all these people who had been down on
• 11:05
  Speaker 9: their luck their whole lives. They'd been in and out
• 11:07
  Speaker 9: of prison their whole lives, and so he kind of
• 11:11
  Speaker 9: was a role model in the senset no matter how
• 11:13
  Speaker 9: many times you do fall, you can get back up,
• 11:16
  Speaker 9: not just the first time you fall, not just the
• 11:18
  Speaker 9: second time you fall. It's almost like an ebb and
• 11:20
  Speaker 9: a flow. And he showed people.
• 11:23
  Speaker 6: That he does, for a while go out and minister
• 11:30
  Speaker 6: to other people. He goes to soup kitchens, he volunteers
• 11:32
  Speaker 6: his time. And the question I think becomes is this genuine?
• 11:36
  Speaker 6: And so we don't know completely with Richard Beasley.
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: Opportunities still exist. When one is around vulnerable people who
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: are looking for help, it can be very easy to
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: hurt them as they look for that help. So what
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: comes first trying to rehabilitate and try to be a
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: different person, or seeing that as an opportune to see
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: people who will need your help and then you can
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: take advantage of them.
• 12:12
  Speaker 5: They were driving and I believe he was hit by
• 12:15
  Speaker 5: a dump truck. His truck rolled, it severed his achilles tendon,
• 12:21
  Speaker 5: broke asternum.
• 12:23
  Speaker 9: Not only did it affect his ability to work, but
• 12:26
  Speaker 9: he also was prescribed painkillers. Ultimately, his accident led to
• 12:31
  Speaker 9: him being addicted to oxyconton. At the time, he was
• 12:36
  Speaker 9: getting into street ministry with individuals who were addicts, so
• 12:40
  Speaker 9: I think there was that struggle at one point he did.
• 12:42
  Speaker 9: I don't think he realized he was addicted to it.
• 12:54
  Speaker 9: After his accident, he used part of a settlement to
• 12:56
  Speaker 9: buy a house an Akron, and it was in kind
• 12:59
  Speaker 9: of rough neighborhood. So he helped the people in the
• 13:02
  Speaker 9: neighborhood and through his ministry, get back on their feet.
• 13:06
  Speaker 9: And he converted the bottom into his apartment so he
• 13:08
  Speaker 9: could monitor what was going on in the rooms and
• 13:10
  Speaker 9: the housing upstairs.
• 13:13
  Speaker 6: And he begins to go to the courts and he
• 13:16
  Speaker 6: was vouching for people. He is going on the streets,
• 13:19
  Speaker 6: he's recruiting people and people in town are thinking, man,
• 13:23
  Speaker 6: You know Chaplain Ridge is a great, great guy.
• 13:26
  Speaker 9: When my dad first got his halfway house, a lot
• 13:29
  Speaker 9: of people were donating furniture. When he first got out
• 13:32
  Speaker 9: of prison, a lot of people donated stuff. So by
• 13:34
  Speaker 9: the time he finished setting up, he had all this
• 13:37
  Speaker 9: extra stuff. So he asked me to make the Craigslist
• 13:40
  Speaker 9: account so he could sell all of this these extra
• 13:45
  Speaker 9: things that he had. And of course at the time,
• 13:50
  Speaker 9: Craigslist was the place to go to sell and buy stuff. Also,
• 13:54
  Speaker 9: at the time it was a leading technology, was a
• 13:56
  Speaker 9: computer or a laptop, and so he had no idea
• 13:59
  Speaker 9: of how to use that stuff. In the beginning. I
• 14:02
  Speaker 9: had to help him a lot, but then after that
• 14:05
  Speaker 9: he learned and did it all himself. So first it
• 14:17
  Speaker 9: was just men that lived in the house, and then
• 14:20
  Speaker 9: it started becoming here and there, Oh, well, there's a
• 14:22
  Speaker 9: woman that needs help. And when you start mixing things
• 14:26
  Speaker 9: like that, it gets massy real quick, and that's when
• 14:31
  Speaker 9: things really started going south.
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: He had manipulated the system enough to get some defendants
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: sent to him as part of their probation.
• 14:43
  Speaker 8: So what he's doing here is two different things.
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: He's trying to scam money from the courts for this,
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: you make work halfway house. But we also found out
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: is that in doing so, he's trying to get women
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: who are drug addicts into his halfway house and trying
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: to turn them into prostitutes.
• 15:01
  Speaker 9: And around that time he started getting a little snippy,
• 15:04
  Speaker 9: like he would snap at me over random things and
• 15:08
  Speaker 9: not the kind person I know, which I know I
• 15:11
  Speaker 9: knew at the time. When you're on drugs, that's what happens.
• 15:14
  Speaker 9: It affects your personality. It almost felt like overnight there
• 15:17
  Speaker 9: was this great, awesome dad and then there was this
• 15:22
  Speaker 9: hateful kind of show of the guy that I knew,
• 15:24
  Speaker 9: but to everybody else he was great.
• 15:27
  Speaker 6: There was some psychological payoff for him, this idea of,
• 15:32
  Speaker 6: you know, kind of getting off on other people, fooling
• 15:35
  Speaker 6: other people. There's a term called duping delight. It's people
• 15:40
  Speaker 6: who get psychological satisfaction from fooling other people. You know,
• 15:45
  Speaker 6: Richard Beasley was showing up at court and pretending to
• 15:48
  Speaker 6: be this wonderful person and having this facade in the community.
• 15:52
  Speaker 6: It's hard not to believe, as elaborate as it was,
• 15:56
  Speaker 6: that he wasn't getting some kind of thrill or some
• 15:58
  Speaker 6: kind of satisfaction out of that part of it as well.
• 16:02
  Speaker 5: He pretended to be a Christian burden hell for that.
• 16:08
  Speaker 4: Excuse me saying that. But yeah, God forgives.
• 16:11
  Speaker 5: But I don't think that you can be a man
• 16:13
  Speaker 5: of God and run a prostitution and drug ring out
• 16:16
  Speaker 5: of your house either.
• 16:21
  Speaker 9: At the time, I was dating someone who was older
• 16:24
  Speaker 9: than me, and I found out that my dad had
• 16:28
  Speaker 9: been using him to sell pills in marijuana in my
• 16:33
  Speaker 9: hometown to people. That's when I completely cut off contact.
• 16:42
  Speaker 10: By twenty eleven, Richard Beasley is under scrutiny by Akron
• 16:46
  Speaker 10: police for sex trafficking. His behavior is deteriorating, and he's
• 16:52
  Speaker 10: now a wanted man following a probation violation.
• 16:56
  Speaker 6: Richard Beasley really does feel like I think his back
• 16:58
  Speaker 6: is up against the wall. And one of the things
• 17:00
  Speaker 6: he had said on several occasions is he did not
• 17:04
  Speaker 6: want to go back to prison, and so he began scheming,
• 17:08
  Speaker 6: you know, Okay, how am I going to avoid this.
• 17:10
  Speaker 6: I can't go on the run with my name and
• 17:13
  Speaker 6: with all my history. I can't. I mean, that's not
• 17:15
  Speaker 6: going to work. And so he comes up with this
• 17:18
  Speaker 6: horrendous scheme, I'm going to find somebody who looks like me,
• 17:24
  Speaker 6: who's about the same age that I am, Somebody who
• 17:28
  Speaker 6: is older, somebody who's vulnerable, somebody who isn't going to
• 17:33
  Speaker 6: be missed. They don't have a lot of family ties.
• 17:37
  Speaker 6: If I can find that person, I can just kill
• 17:40
  Speaker 6: them and assume their identity.
• 17:44
  Speaker 10: In the summer of twenty eleven, Beasley plans to lure
• 17:47
  Speaker 10: potential victims to him with an ad.
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: He's placed on Craigslist.
• 17:52
  Speaker 10: And then he's going to kill them and steal their
• 17:54
  Speaker 10: identities to avoid being captured by police.
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: Look at the situation and the desperateness that some people
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: may have. Here's a person that says, there are people
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: without work, there are people without opportunity, there are people addicted,
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: there are people involved in prostitution. This is now starting
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: to come my way.
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: Well, well, mister Beasley sets up that Craigslist ad. He
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: puts himself in the position of power. He's the one
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: who has the job, so he can ask any questions
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: of any applicants, and so he can find out who's local,
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: who's not local, who has strong family ties, who doesn't
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: have strong family ties. You know, it's not going to
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: be a coincidence that he winds up with several victims
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: who don't have a lot of close family ties, and he.
• 18:40
  Speaker 9: Knew that if these people had no one that would
• 18:42
  Speaker 9: miss them, and they brought all their belongings for this job,
• 18:46
  Speaker 9: he'd be able to sell their belongings. There's the money,
• 18:49
  Speaker 9: steal their identities because they had long hair and looked
• 18:51
  Speaker 9: like him. There's the drugs. And then he had this
• 18:54
  Speaker 9: huge plot of land wherever he was saying that provided
• 18:58
  Speaker 9: him a place to live. So at that point in
• 19:00
  Speaker 9: his head, he was just trying to survive and get
• 19:03
  Speaker 9: his drugs.
• 19:04
  Speaker 10: Estranged from his daughter and physically unable to carry out
• 19:08
  Speaker 10: his plan alone. Richard Beasley develops a closer bond with
• 19:11
  Speaker 10: Broken Rafferty, the sixteen year old son of a close friend.
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: Our investigation showed that Broken Rafferty his dad was pretty
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: high up in a local club, and we kind of
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: think that's how those two, mister Beasley and mister Rafferty
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: started to meet.
• 19:26
  Speaker 6: I think that he certainly probably enjoyed the attention and
• 19:32
  Speaker 6: that love and the admiration he got from this young child.
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: He would teach Broken things.
• 19:40
  Speaker 5: At first, it was about Christ and church and everything
• 19:45
  Speaker 5: like that.
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: Then it turned into.
• 19:48
  Speaker 5: Mafia and broken copied Rich's dress. You know, were the
• 19:54
  Speaker 5: same leather jacket, identical leather jacket and jean, same brand,
• 20:00
  Speaker 5: the genes, and he just became obsessed with Rich.
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: Sixteen year olds, please don't be fooled, are still in
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: the formative stage. The brain is still forming what we
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: call it the teen brain. So perhaps that sixteen year
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: old is looking for a definition of life, looking for
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: those materialistic goods the fifty year old is able to
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: provide it. The fifty year old is looking for a
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: person that has the youthfulness to allow for some of
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: these criminal activities to take place.
• 20:30
  Speaker 10: Fifty six year old Ralph Geiger, who's now homeless after
• 20:34
  Speaker 10: losing his job running a construction company, is the first
• 20:37
  Speaker 10: to answer Beasley's ad I'm.
• 20:40
  Speaker 8: Out of work.
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: Here's an opportunity for me to work. Here's an opportunity
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: for me to be on a farm, and all I
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: have to do is answer this call meet with this person.
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: It's an aspect of almost unfair play that this would
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: be set up in this way, using technology like craigslists
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: to lure men to find these jobs and then find
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: themselves in horrific situations.
• 21:04
  Speaker 6: Ralph becomes Richard Beasley's avenue in his mind to escape
• 21:11
  Speaker 6: going back to prison. So he and Ralph and Brogan
• 21:24
  Speaker 6: meet up and they basically get the car and they
• 21:31
  Speaker 6: go out in the woods, allegencing to this farm. Richard
• 21:37
  Speaker 6: makes up some ruse to get Ralph out of the
• 21:41
  Speaker 6: car and they go through the woods. Somehow Richard gets
• 21:47
  Speaker 6: behind Ralph Geibert, and Richard Beasley just pulls out a
• 21:51
  Speaker 6: gun and shoots him at the back of the head.
• 22:03
  Speaker 9: My dad was so far into drug usage at the time.
• 22:06
  Speaker 9: He knew it was wrong, but I don't think he
• 22:08
  Speaker 9: could emotionally connect to it. When you're on drugs, it's
• 22:11
  Speaker 9: all about self gain, what benefits you, what helps you
• 22:16
  Speaker 9: get your next high, and that's all he was thinking about.
• 22:22
  Speaker 6: Richard now becomes Ralph Geiger. He asked people who knew
• 22:27
  Speaker 6: him to start calling him Ralph, which I can only
• 22:29
  Speaker 6: imagine what they thought about that. He rents a room
• 22:32
  Speaker 6: under the name Ralph Geiger, and it occurs to Richard
• 22:37
  Speaker 6: Beasley aka Ralph Geiger at this point that man, that
• 22:41
  Speaker 6: was so easy. Nobody's looking for Ralph Geiger. I need money.
• 22:45
  Speaker 4: My back hurts.
• 22:46
  Speaker 6: I don't want to work. So what if I do
• 22:49
  Speaker 6: this as my next career. I mean, this is really
• 22:53
  Speaker 6: the beginning of Richard Besley the serial killer.
• 23:04
  Speaker 10: For two months, Richard Beasley has been living under the
• 23:07
  Speaker 10: identity of Ralph Geiger, a homeless man who Beasley killed
• 23:11
  Speaker 10: after responding to a Craigslist ad. Now he's looking for
• 23:15
  Speaker 10: another victim. From the applicants to.
• 23:17
  Speaker 6: His ad, he is looking for very very specific vulnerable victims,
• 23:23
  Speaker 6: lack of family ties, middle aged, willing to go off
• 23:28
  Speaker 6: the grid. And so he gets over a hundred replies
• 23:33
  Speaker 6: for this position.
• 23:39
  Speaker 10: Beasley agrees to meet fifty one year old David Paully.
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: So, mister Pauley is coming from Norfolk, Virginia, which is
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: almost a ten hour drive for Macro Ohio. He's not
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: coming here just to find out about a job. He
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: packed up his U haul and moved all of his
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: possessions here, so he was coming here with the attention
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: to stay here and make a new life here. And
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: I think that mister Polly being willing and able to
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: leave Norfolk, Virginia and drive ten hours for a promise
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: of a job or the possibility of a job, shows
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: how desperate mister Pauli was at the time, and frankly,
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: how a lot of people were at the time.
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: Can you imagine the helplessness and the hopelessness that exist
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: in someone responding to that thinking that this is a
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: new start again, the vulnerabilities of people lending them to
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: take down their guard a step or two.
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: He starts hearing from these victims and luring them to Ohio.
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: Some of the questions he's asking are do you have meds? Clearly,
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: drugs is a through line through all.
• 24:34
  Speaker 9: Of this, so the motive was him stealing identities and
• 24:39
  Speaker 9: trying to get money and drugs while not getting caught
• 24:42
  Speaker 9: by the police. He was so numb to what he
• 24:45
  Speaker 9: was doing he didn't grasp the concept of another human life.
• 24:56
  Speaker 6: So David Paully is beside himself. He packs all of
• 24:59
  Speaker 6: the stuff up, he drives all the way to Ohio.
• 25:04
  Speaker 6: He meets with the person who he thinks his name Jack.
• 25:11
  Speaker 6: Jack's nephew Brogan is also with him, and once again
• 25:17
  Speaker 6: he does the same ruse. He convinces David to go
• 25:21
  Speaker 6: out into the woods. They go for a walk. Richard
• 25:25
  Speaker 6: Beasley gets behind him and shoots him at the back
• 25:28
  Speaker 6: of the head. What struck me was how much psychological
• 25:33
  Speaker 6: payoff there seemed to be for Richard Beasley in running
• 25:38
  Speaker 6: the schemes and duping the people around him, And I
• 25:43
  Speaker 6: think that motive was extremely powerful him, and probably more
• 25:46
  Speaker 6: powerful to him than he even realized or would acknowledge.
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: We see a lot of time pass between that first victim,
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: mister Geiger, and that second victim, mister Pawley. But given
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: that the time had passed and still nothing happened, they're
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: even more in bold and they're not going to wait
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: to time. They're going to move faster this time, and
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: that's exactly what they did.
• 26:03
  Speaker 10: Less than three weeks later, fifty year old Scott Davis
• 26:07
  Speaker 10: is on his way to meet Richard Beasley.
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: Scott Davis was from South Carolina, but he was living
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: locally with his mom in Masly in, Ohio, so that's
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: about forty minutes from Macron. But like everyone else, he
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: was also kind of down on his luck at his time.
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: So this is how he comes into mister Beasley's orbit.
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: Mister Beasley is still relying on that same Craigslist ad,
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: He's still getting people interested in that job, and he's
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: still going back to that same ad and going to
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: the same pool of victims to pick from him.
• 26:37
  Speaker 8: So what we find is.
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: Mister Beasley lures mister Davis to a restaurant just like
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: he did mister Polly. They have their meal there, and
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: he takes them to the same secluded wooded area with
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: every intention of killing mister Davis just like he killed
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: mister Pally.
• 26:51
  Speaker 6: And so once again, Richard Beasley pulls out the gun
• 26:57
  Speaker 6: Poinston Scott's head and it and go off. There's a click,
• 27:04
  Speaker 6: and Scott turns around and sees this gun. Now, Richard
• 27:10
  Speaker 6: Beasley fires again, and this time he doesn't miss, and
• 27:13
  Speaker 6: he hits Scott in the elbow, which is a pretty
• 27:16
  Speaker 6: serious injury. But Scott absolutely takes off and he is
• 27:20
  Speaker 6: running for his life and Richard Beasley is looking everywhere,
• 27:25
  Speaker 6: and so is rug and Rafferty and Scott Davis is
• 27:28
  Speaker 6: running just losing blood as he goes. He ends up
• 27:33
  Speaker 6: hiding in this creek bed for like seven hours, losing
• 27:38
  Speaker 6: blood this entire time. After seven hours, it's freezing outside
• 27:46
  Speaker 6: and he's losing blood. This man gets up and walks
• 27:50
  Speaker 6: seven miles to a house where he knocks on the
• 27:55
  Speaker 6: door and people open it and there's this man covered
• 27:58
  Speaker 6: in blood and who tells them this horrendous story and
• 28:02
  Speaker 6: they call nine one one.
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: We just had a gemmy come up to our front door.
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: He claims that he's been shot. He's got some blood
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: on him. What's your name, sir, Scott Davis.
• 28:16
  Speaker 10: Scott Davis is rescued, treated for his wounds and questioned
• 28:20
  Speaker 10: by police.
• 28:21
  Speaker 11: Well, I was on the please list and it said
• 28:24
  Speaker 11: that read I was looking for someone's sake here at
• 28:28
  Speaker 11: six hundred and eighty eight acres a farm land. He
• 28:31
  Speaker 11: went back and forth for a month, you know. They
• 28:32
  Speaker 11: said they was going to get me three hundred miles
• 28:34
  Speaker 11: a week and a place to live. We got probably
• 28:36
  Speaker 11: about forty fifty feet and her click, oh crowd. I
• 28:43
  Speaker 11: smart around and he had the gun in the back
• 28:44
  Speaker 11: of my head. That's a pretty nuts that is done, Jam.
• 28:47
  Speaker 11: When it was done, Jam, I thought it right up
• 28:48
  Speaker 11: to the wood for everything I would work. He shout
• 28:50
  Speaker 11: at me again.
• 28:50
  Speaker 8: That's why he got me in the arms. Okay, you
• 28:52
  Speaker 8: said there was two guys.
• 28:53
  Speaker 11: One of them was Jack.
• 28:54
  Speaker 4: You say he had short hair blee Jean Tennis and
• 28:59
  Speaker 4: the other guys him.
• 29:01
  Speaker 8: I don't have glad to get to think. Another guy
• 29:02
  Speaker 8: had blonde hair. Probably seventeen years old. Uh, six', five all,
• 29:10
  Speaker 8: right but he went By. Jack that's what the thing.
• 29:12
  Speaker 8: Was you tell her to shave the.
• 29:13
  Speaker 6: Beard at this, Point Richard beasley has become not only
• 29:19
  Speaker 6: desperate but. Reckless he's realizing that the gig is about
• 29:23
  Speaker 6: to be.
• 29:24
  Speaker 10: Up before authorities begin to track Down beasley And, rafferty
• 29:28
  Speaker 10: they're luring another. Victim this time they Picked Timothy, kern
• 29:35
  Speaker 10: an unemployed father of a teenage son From masilla In.
• 29:38
  Speaker 10: Ohio timothy's son drives him to an interview With beasley
• 29:42
  Speaker 10: And rafferty at a waffle. HOUSE a few days, Later
• 29:46
  Speaker 10: beasley confirms tim has got the, job so he heads.
• 29:49
  Speaker 8: Back they lure Mister kern through the same.
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: Thing they sit, down they have a, meal and they're
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: going to go take him to this advertised wooded. Area
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: they have to go to a different place after what
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: happened to Mister, day but they find another wooded area
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: to do this. In they start taking him to this
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: wooded area and they shoot him four. Times Mister kerran
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: didn't die at the first shot of the, head and
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: he kept, breathing and it was a cold, blooded calculated.
• 30:15
  Speaker 8: Murder four time.
• 30:17
  Speaker 6: Shot he literally has five dollars in his. Pocket to, me,
• 30:23
  Speaker 6: again it's an indication that while money may have been
• 30:28
  Speaker 6: part of that entire, scheme it wasn't. EVERYTHING i Think
• 30:33
  Speaker 6: richard was angry as a. PERSON i think he was.
• 30:37
  Speaker 6: DESPERATE i think he saw what was going to, happen
• 30:40
  Speaker 6: AND i think he was just he didn't. CARE i
• 30:42
  Speaker 6: don't think he cared at all about his, victim and
• 30:45
  Speaker 6: maybe he never, did but he chose at that moment
• 30:49
  Speaker 6: to go ahead and kill.
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: Him this is the question that occurs a rite about this,
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: time is after you've committed two three of these heinous,
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: acts is it something that you're doing to fulfill a
• 30:59
  Speaker 3: need or is it something that you've gotten very good.
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: At whatever is the answer, there we still have to deal.
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: With there are people who will do these heinous, crimes
• 31:08
  Speaker 3: and it takes outstanding police, work and they also the
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: general public being out there willing to be the persons
• 31:16
  Speaker 3: to report activities that may be suspicious or in.
• 31:20
  Speaker 10: Question the sister Of David Pauley beasley's second victim is
• 31:25
  Speaker 10: one such.
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: Person MISTER pauli actually had a sister who lived up In,

• 31:42
  Speaker 2: people that his brother's gone.

• 35:42
  Speaker 9: talk to me about my. Dad, definitely red flag's going
• 35:44
  Speaker 9: off in my. Brain but at the same, TIME i
• 35:46
  Speaker 9: knew he would get caught, eventually BUT i thought it
• 35:49
  Speaker 9: was weird that it was by THE fbi and, not you,
• 35:51
  Speaker 9: Know acron police. Department so he pulled me. Aside we started.
• 35:56

• 36:06
  Speaker 9: still trying to find. Him why are they talking to.

• 37:08
  Speaker 9: don't think my teenage mind could really process. It it
• 37:13
  Speaker 9: was almost like my whole dream and idea of him
• 37:15
  Speaker 9: came crashing down at, once AND i was feeling so
• 37:19
  Speaker 9: many EMOTIONS i couldn't even decipher. Them, basically this this
• 37:24
  Speaker 9: black hole of despair sucked in all my emotions and
• 37:28
  Speaker 9: it was like time froze and IT i just it was.
• 37:33
  Speaker 9: Broken it wasn't just open ended the friend like he killed.
• 37:50
  Speaker 9: People this was it like this he's, done you, Know
• 37:53
  Speaker 9: it's it's something, major and it hit me really.
• 37:58
  Speaker 5: HARD i was just totally taken aback anything they could
• 38:03
  Speaker 5: have told me rich.
• 38:04
  Speaker 4: DONE i would never have thought That.
• 38:09
  Speaker 10: Richard beasley is charged on multiple counts of aggravated, murder attempted, murder,
• 38:15
  Speaker 10: kidnapping an aggravated.
• 38:16
  Speaker 5: Robbery it's, rough it is KNOWING i married a man
• 38:22
  Speaker 5: that became THAT i never would have thought that a
• 38:27
  Speaker 5: RICH i still can't believe when they call him a
• 38:30
  Speaker 5: serial killer THAT i have so many good memories and
• 38:35
  Speaker 5: my daughter has so many good, memories and he can
• 38:39
  Speaker 5: throw it all.
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: Away when we looked Into brogen at the, time because
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: we're trying to find out how does this sixteen year
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: old fifteen sixteen year old kid.
• 38:54
  Speaker 8: Get involved with?
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: This you, know Our bureau Of Criminal investigation investigators looked
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: into his computer, history and what we find is someone
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: who is obsessed with mafia. Lifestyle he's obsessed with, crime
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: and you can see someone who's clearly trying to emulate that.
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: Lifestyle be, heavy be a tough. Guy and so we
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: find that these two people meet and they wind up
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: being a perfect match to carry out these, awful awful.
• 39:17
  Speaker 6: CRIMES i don't think That richard knew when he first
• 39:21
  Speaker 6: Met Broken rafferty that he was going to use him
• 39:25
  Speaker 6: to commit murders down the. Road rich was involved in
• 39:28
  Speaker 6: Taking broken to church on many many, occasions and he
• 39:32
  Speaker 6: became like a substitute. FATHER i also would imagine that
• 39:36
  Speaker 6: part of that grooming process was exposing him a little
• 39:41
  Speaker 6: lot of time to criminal, activity so that broken becomes
• 39:45
  Speaker 6: desensitized to. That AND i think it's very easy to
• 39:49
  Speaker 6: underestimate the power an adult can have over a child
• 39:55
  Speaker 6: when you look at his age and you look at
• 39:59
  Speaker 6: his life. Circumstances he was somebody who was absolutely right
• 40:04
  Speaker 6: for the picking in terms Of Richard.
• 40:06
  Speaker 10: Beasley brogan agrees to lead police to the burial sites
• 40:11
  Speaker 10: Of Ralph, Geiger David, pauley And Timothy.
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: Kern we found the first two victims In Noble county In, Caldwell.
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: Ohio that was the field and wooded area where Mister
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: besley Mister raffrey were taking their victims to. Start so
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: we found the first two victims there in shallow. Graves
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: but because Mister davis got away and they had to
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: switch up their method and went to a new. Place
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: here we found Mister kerr Near Rolling Acres. Mall Mister
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: davis getting away is probably the only reason we broke this.
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: Case if Mister davis doesn't get, away we don't know
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: how many more. Victims Mister besley and Mister rafferty would
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: have killed.
• 40:46
  Speaker 10: It Broken rafferty is offered a deal that will allow
• 40:51
  Speaker 10: him parole after a significant jail, term but he refuses
• 40:55
  Speaker 10: to turn On beasley and is sentenced to life without
• 40:58
  Speaker 10: the possibility of Par.
• 41:01
  Speaker 3: This relationship was so strong That brogan sacrifices his freedom
• 41:07
  Speaker 3: for the sake Of.
• 41:08
  Speaker 7: Beasley over the, years he had build up more and
• 41:11
  Speaker 7: more trust for, me and you, know vice. Versa we
• 41:16
  Speaker 7: had a little bit of an understanding that since he
• 41:18
  Speaker 7: was a friend of my father's and we just had
• 41:21
  Speaker 7: known each other for a, while that we had you,
• 41:24
  Speaker 7: KNOW i would do anything for, you you would do
• 41:26
  Speaker 7: anything for me kind of, thing because that's just what we,
• 41:29
  Speaker 7: thought that we were that good of.
• 41:30
  Speaker 6: FRIENDS i do think That Richard beasley and maybe to
• 41:35
  Speaker 6: a lesser, Extent Broken, rafferty got a thrill out of
• 41:40
  Speaker 6: these fantasies of their schemes that they're putting, on and
• 41:43
  Speaker 6: how they were these kind of master criminals and they're
• 41:47
  Speaker 6: this elaborate plot and you, know they're the ones who
• 41:51
  Speaker 6: are deciding who lives and. Dies and so when you
• 41:55
  Speaker 6: look at, THAT i think it isn't that surprising that
• 41:59
  Speaker 6: he would be interested in the. Mafia who does kind
• 42:02
  Speaker 6: of pick and. Choose he's going to live and. Die
• 42:04
  Speaker 6: SO i think this kind of anti hero thing he's
• 42:07
  Speaker 6: got built up in his head is really consistent with
• 42:10
  Speaker 6: all the time he takes concocting this scheme and carrying it.
• 42:15
  Speaker 10: Out In march twenty, Thirteen Richard beasley is sentenced to.
• 42:21
  Speaker 10: Death to this, day he maintains his. Innocence In rich's,
• 42:26
  Speaker 10: eyes he'd done nothing. Wrong he feels no. Remorse he's
• 42:30
  Speaker 10: a typical.
• 42:31
  Speaker 5: Sociopath he has never taken responsibility for anything in his.
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: Life there's no Question Richard beasley was looking to take
• 42:40
  Speaker 2: advantage of. People and there's no question, too given the
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: viciousness and calculation in these. Crimes he had been plotting
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: for a while how he was going to take advantage of.
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: People so it's not a surprise to see that he
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: had tried several different ways to put himself around people
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: who were vulnerable and could be taken advantage of by his.
• 42:59
  Speaker 9: Manipulation it's that victim. Mentality he blames it on everyone.
• 43:05
  Speaker 9: Else he constantly writes notes to the newspapers and, everything
• 43:10
  Speaker 9: stating that the system is, corrupt and this is what really,
• 43:13
  Speaker 9: happened And i've tried to confront him about, it even in.
• 43:18
  Speaker 9: Person but THEN i got to the point WHERE i
• 43:24
  Speaker 9: was able to separate myself from, it but not as
• 43:27
  Speaker 9: a trauma, response but because FINALLY i had all this
• 43:33
  Speaker 9: time period had finally healed AND i was able to move.
• 43:36
  Speaker 9: Forward and the first TIME i went public with my
• 43:39
  Speaker 9: story was when that, happened BECAUSE i Realized i'm my
• 43:42

• 43:50
  Speaker 9: be a serial, killer and despite whether he says he's
