Reply to comment by TheDadThatGrills in In Truth or Consequences, N.M., leaking pipes cause millions of gallons of water to go down the drain amid drought by Thetimmybaby

Hah! I wonder if they’ll discover any bodies as the lake dries up. There was a serial killer there in the 80’s? The toy box killer. I believe he worked for the park services and many of his victims were never found. :(

None of the bodies were found. The last victim escaped wearing only a dog collar after she smashed his girlfriend with a lamp and booked it. That’s why they were worried they couldn’t convict and gave him a plea deal for shorter sentence for the girlfriend and his daughter who also helped. Then he died before serving a day of his actual sentence. Both women are free now.

Oh, none were? Guess the chance of them finding some in elephant butte just went up! I drive through TorC once a year (twice if you’re counting the trip back) It’s the middle of nowhere. Not hard to find a place to hide things, especially if you know the area well, and have access, as a park ranger would. :(

I do like to think of them at peace now, under those beautiful New Mexican night skies. Rest in Peace ladies, you are not forgotten.
