Welcome back to your crime army. I am your host Margo and this is a true crime podcast where I focus on crimes committed by military members and veterans.

But don't worry, you don't have to know anything about the military to listen, I promise.

You just have to be a true crime enthusiast and if that's you, welcome home.

Alright y'all, today I am bringing you part two of Randy Kraft, the scorecard killer.

The interesting thing about serial killers of the 70s and 80s is that they were not alone, they were not outkilling alone.

And what I mean by that is that various serial killers were roaming the streets and the highways simultaneously just taking people off one by one.

Sometimes serial killer victims would be thought to be the work of other serial killers and today we will briefly explore not only Randy Kraft's crimes but also the crimes of other serial killers killing at the same time.

If you haven't listened to part one, I'd highly recommend pausing this episode and listening there first.

Again, same warnings as last time, Randy Kraft was a twisted and sick individual who did twisted and sick things to his victims.

If you can't handle dark true crime, skip this episode, it's not for you. You have been warned.

Join me today as I continue to discuss the crimes of serial killer Randy Kraft, also known as the scorecard killer. Now let's dig in.

Shout out to Sloan from Killer Queens for researching and writing this episode.

When I left off in part one, Randy had just lost his job, lost his four year relationship with Jeff Graves, and he had just been arrested for Lude Condon.

Well, Randy always seemed to land on his feet, at least with jobs, and he quickly picked up a job with a consulting firm doing Lord knows what.

But it's during this time that murders continue and that task force I talked about, well they were nowhere near stopping this guy, and the body count climbed and climbed and climbed as the murders became more and more brutal.

That year in 1975 on New Year's Eve, 22-year-old Mark Howard Hall disappeared. He had gone out with some friends for the night and hopped around a couple of different parties.
