Summary

The Package Killer is the name attributed to an American serial killer who murdered between three and five women in the St. Louis area from 1990 to 1991. His pseudonym comes from the way he discarded the bodies in conspicuous “packages”— between a pair of mattresses, in a large trash bin, in a plywood box, and along major highways where they would be easily found. For more than three decades, the Package Killer remained the city’s most notorious serial murderer to elude justice. Until it was just recently solved in 2022. everlywell.com/creeper OhMyGaia.com Code: Creeper https://www.tonicvibes.com Code: Creeper EVERYTHING TRUE CRIME GUYS: https://linktr.ee/Truecrimeguysproductions Patreon.com/truecrimeguys Merch: truecrimeguys.threadless.com OhMyGaia.com Facebook Twitter/Instagram: @TrueCrimeGuys @AndImMichael @sandupodcast STICKERS CREEPER MERCH Sources: https://www.riverfronttimes.com/news/how-notorious-serial-killer-gary-muehlberg-terrorized-st-louis-38526656?storyPage=2 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Package_Killer
