A man who reportedly had a documented history of violence and multiple wives — several of whom died under unexplained circumstances. A daughter who has been alleging for nearly two decades that he killed dozens of women and buried them in wells on the family property. An FBI investigation that lasted parts of three days. And now a documentary that reportedly features an alleged accomplice speaking for the first time. 

Donald Dean Studey lived in Green Hollow, a remote wooded area near Thurman, Iowa, about 40 miles from Omaha. He died in 2013 at 75 without ever being charged in connection with a single homicide. His daughter Lucy Studey-McKiddy alleges he killed dozens of women — reportedly targeting vulnerable women at bus stops and truck stops, women who vanished without anyone searching for them. In 2022, cadaver dogs reportedly alerted across the property. 

The FBI came, drilled a well Lucy says was the wrong one, and closed the case. Charlotte Studey's 1984 death from a gunshot wound in Omaha — self-inflicted, they said — has been officially reclassified as undetermined after a re-autopsy. Don's own sister reportedly kept a handwritten journal describing alleged killings and told investigators the area near the wells was a graveyard. The Paramount+ documentary My Killer Father: The Green Hollow Murders reportedly brings new evidence and witnesses into public view. 

Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta investigated this case independently on the ground in Green Hollow and shares what the public still doesn't know.
