Summary

This week, in Gadsden, Alabama, a man who isn't very smart begins a life of crime. He starts young, and never lets up. He went to jail for anything you can imagine, even escaping a couple of times. Finally, he goes on a murder spree, wiping people out, in a rural trailer. From there, it's a nationwide manhunt, even more murder, and an epic showdown with police, and a story form the killer, that leaves no questions unanswered

Along the way, we find out that if this murderer can find three different women to marry him, no one should complain about their love life, that just becasue someone can't read, it doesn't mean that they can't hold an entire region hostage, and that when a murderer is arrested, you might get the anwers to a lot more crimes!!
