No thread about The Staircase Killer being released?

Any thoughts?

• There is a thread somewhere.

• Staircase killer? Never heard of it but sounds interesting.

• How many staircases did he kill?

• He killed on a staircase and yhere was a gay hustler angle...

• I heard about him for the first time yesterday. Supposedly, his wife knew that he was bisexual and she was completely fine with it. He also said that he was surprised that his children were unaware of his bisexuality. Interesting. I don't believe him, though.

• Yes I think he was guilty. First wife also had a strange death...

• What about that horrible killing in NY yesterday where the man dressed as an exterminator got on an elevator and set a woman on fire? I haven't seen a thread on that. Horrible, horrible story. That poor woman. It seemed like a hit, too, but the victim was a 64-year-old postal worker, coming home from grocery shopping. Who the hell puts out a hit on an old lady post office worker? As weird as it sounds, I hope it turns out to be "hit" because I hate to think that random crime has become that horrific.

• I'd never heard of this case until I came across a documentary on it on the Sundance Channel. Part 2 aired yesterday, so news that he was released is going to change my perception. So far, it has followed the incident with the wife dying (murdered?); a camera is following the suspected murderer as his lawyers build his case. It's slow but interesting. It was just revealed in part 2 about this guys secret life, and that he made up aspects of his supposed true exploits during the Vietnam war. There was a bit of gore when the coroner was showing pictures of the dead wife covered in blood. Yikes.

• Sundance is re-running the original series to promote the 2 new episodes that will air this fall. They will pick up where the story left off.

• Thanks for the info, R10.
