Summary

Authorities could have predicted that a teenager named Robert “Bob” Gross might end up a suspect in sex crimes. They just did not know how far he would take his obsession. As with many sex offenders, he became enamored neighbor girl’s underwear drawer. He liked to creep around and window peep. To some, this may seem like normal boyhood sexual curiosity, but these behaviors often end up as adult obsessions that many men take to the next level of kidnapping, rape, and murder. This is the story of one of those guys who was mostly a free man during his life. The Kansas City Police Department spent millions on man-hours investigating and following Gross. He made a few slip-ups that took him off the streets for periods but never for his real crimes of murder. Don’t forget to listen to Aaron on the Big Dumb Fun Show.
