Wow!! What a heartbreaking thing to happen to this town & everyone it! This is definitely my favorite video/series of yours i have watched so far (& i love all of your videos!) You do an amazing job & show love and kindness to everyone. ❤ You inspire me to do anything I can to give a voice to victims & help in the world.
@maddyabby300
Not so fun fact, my mom was actually attacked by this man in the early 90s on an Air Force base in Germany. They believe she was his first victim, she put up one hell of a fight and he managed to get away
@JK-cz6bu
I started working at Pall Corporation in Cortland in 1997 and asked my coworkers/boss about it. NY state troopers had the killer in custody on his 2nd shift very quickly. It was such a disturbing story and it was unbelievable how many things kept happening in that small rural little town.
@puppylove200
I truly hope the town of Dryden has healed from all of the tragedy. My heart goes out to the victims and their families. I can’t even begin to imagine the emotional trauma that has been inflicted ❤❤😢

I'm from Cortland and the Dryden area. I was 5 years old when this happened and the murderers mother and sister were customers of my father's shop.
@user-ks8il6km5j
I’m the same way. I have no desire to socialize with neighbors. I keep to myself. lol
@Raga985
Oh man I’m here because I went to TC3 the local community College around 2004 and was told a story about a guy who recently murdered two girls and “put them in a wood chipper” and spread the parts in the woods behind our dorm. I remember asking someone local about it at a party and they broke down crying, I had no idea that they had known the girls.
Remembering this just today I said I wonder if there is a video about this and wow here I am. Great job very good video it’s more horrifying than I could have imagined.
@mistiroberts1576
48:12 I was just going to ask where HRC was at the time
@boydsinclair7606
Candles in windows at night feels like a dumb way to start a bunch of fires.
Also, this is for the people who aren't affected to feel better, I don't imagine it's ever going to bring a kidnapped victim home 😢
@Mwwade82
I have to say that this is not the whole story. Especially as far as the school goes, the kids there and the so called help they offered.
I went to that school during these times. I went to Dryden and high school 1992-1997. I can tell you it was hell. Not just because of the tragedies but the school and town itself. I was an outcast from day one. My family of a single mother and 2 bothers didn’t have money, I was not cool and don’t play sports and worst of all, I was gay.
The torment that I endured and others at that school daily was insufferable and not to mention. Preventable. I cannot tell you how many adults at that school saw and heard the cruel things and did nothing. I was not on the football team nor a cheerleader. Nor did my parents work for Cornell.
Now I am not saying this justifies anything that anyone went through but some of it is bs. I can assure you when I sought counselling for the constant abuse. I was asked by the guidance Counselor to maybe have my mom find another city to move to so I could find another school.
Also Mr. Carbone the schools principal at the time. Total d bag to me on the regularly. Even when I was defending myself from the “cool kids”.
Yeah, I don’t know Jennifer but I will say Sarah actually was a stuck up cheerleader to a T. I remember being outside my apartment complex and her and an another cheerleader rode by on bikes. I asked if they had the time. Sarah straight up gave me a disgusted face and said go get a watch. The other girl was embarrassed and said something to her and gave me the time and they went on.
Weirdly enough I lived next door to John Andrew’s for 1 year before he bought the house next to Sarah. His wife and toddler son had moved in as he was being dismissed from the military. He was a creep and when looking back can see he had something for my mother. As he was always trying to befriend me and see if my mother was home. I found it odd he wanted to bring me comic books and see if my mother was home. My mom was friends with his wife and they had coffee and such but he would always try to get my mom to come over. Looking back, creepy. As my mother was a young mother she was only 30 at the time and didn’t look it. She was mistaken for a teenager constantly due to her small petite frame and youthful face. She was 4”11 and maybe 115 soaking wet.
I still have those comics he gave me and I still have nightmares from that hell hole of a school. I fortunately did move away and graduated from Cortland and couldn’t have been happier.
I wouldn’t let my worst enemies children go to that school.
@janeewells3225
We are all sinners deserving of God’s wrath. Jesus Christ lived the sinless life we couldn’t and was crucified on the cross enduring the wrath of God we rightfully deserved so that through our faith in Him we may be saved from the wrath of God. Repent. The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.
@user-ot6pj7lh6c
I’m from Dryden currently at this high school there’s a memorial out front in the garden it was tragic it shook this town
@rionachhobbs5501
I've lived at my house for 5 years and I have only spoken to my neighbours (about 8-9 people on my street) literally about 5 times, I don't know them at all. I do know a lovely deaf woman who lived next door but she moved to afew streets away about 2 years ago, but other than her, I don't know any of them. I actually thought that the woman's son was a murderer for a good 6 months cos I hadn't see the woman since October 21 and it was about March 22 and her son still lived next door and he was so noisy it was ridiculous, like all day and all night the noises never stopped, banging, he would run up and down the stairs ALL the time, way more than a normal person does, he would be hammering something at like 1-2 in the morning, you could hear him moaning and yelling at something. I have been a true crime fanatic for about 11-12 years and if I have learned anything it's that if someone you see on a daily basis just disappears and there's banging and other noises coming from their house, there is something wrong. I gave it 1 more day and then I was fully intended on calling the police. I went to the shop around the corner and there she was my neighbour and the relief that went through my body is something I've never felt before. That was when I leant she had moved, I was so happy to see her, I ran to my boyfriend who was in work and making sure he had no customers in, I just said 'our neighbour isn't a killer, I just saw and spoke to Moya she's alive she's alive' hahaha
@user-py4pd6bk2e
They helped him by giving him shoelaces. Inmates don't usually get laces!
@jennyderksen892
Unfortunately, I lived in the town when the girls were murdered. This happened in 1996. Please, check your facts and dates.
@kristinelizabeth2982
For real – not to make you feel better- I prefer being anonymous wherever I live. It's partially for their benefit as well. Less frivolous relationships equals less liability, less drama, less interactions that could be more than I wanted. As a middle aged adult, I certainly am not looking for or in need of more casual "friends".
@jessiroseanne
It's crazy that people think the "normal average guy" can't be a monster. Who do they think women are constantly being attacked by?
@katmack4215
Yo..I've watched the prior parts to this series,and I'm just floored!! 😲
How can one little town have so much devastation? How can these folks endure losing so very much?
My prayers are with them..❤
I know these things happened quite a long while ago,but it's not as if people get over having their children stolen from them,or losing them in accidents,or having the lives of an entire family snatched away on Christmas!
My thoughts and prayers for protection over all that live there now,especially their kids.
@katmack4215
Stephanie..I know all my neighbors,and they know me 😆 and even the one's I don't know their name,we still speak to each other in passing 😂 Lol
(Howev,I do live in a fairly small town)😉
@TikToksucks1234
Where I live last year the high school had 3 fatal deaths, and 2 survivors with brain damage. The survivor was a cheerleader and she is doing bad. Her mom was a elementary teacher and she had to quit work because her daughter required 24 help. Other survivor isn’t all way but he doing good. My son is 17 and as a mom, this scares me.
@laughingcorrpseholly4136
Me and my husband tend to keep to ourselves in our neighborhood but we do say hello to our neighbors walking by if we happen to be outside. We're not rude or anything but, could they say they KNOW us know us? Nope. My son has a few friends here in the neighborhood and we know their parents/grandparents a little better than the other neighbors but we really dont go out of our way to talk to them lol. We are huge homebodies and I have social anxiety so I get a little freaked out when it comes to talking to people I don't know well. I don't even like making phone calls haha I have to have my husband make phone calls for appointments and stuff. Like you said, times were different then. Where I live used to be considered a "small town" or "small city" Where back in the 80's, 90's, early 2000's you couldn't go ANYWHERE without running into at least 10 people that you knew. My grandmother would get stuck at the store for hours running into people she knew one after the other and talk to them forever lol. But so many people have moved here in the last 10-15 years that it's now considered more of a city than a town. I use to love this place when I was a kid, the small town feel to it and how when I got here every weekend it felt like a breath of fresh air. Now the air just feels stale…We moved here when our son was born from Orlando(FL) because of so much crime in orlando happening and I didn't like the schools there. I wanted my son in a good school. So we moved here to Saint Cloud where I grew up. But now we are considering moving again because the crime is going up here and the schools are getting worse and worse every year and like I said… the air just feels stale. Just last week a couple miles down the road, a mother was arrested for strangling and k*lling her 13 year old son. in 2019 a young mother went missing and she was later found dismembered on her ex-husbands parents property. Her ex husband and father-in-law brutally killed her and dismembered her and they were thankfully caught and convicted and sent to life in prison. But now her little boy is left without a mother and a father in prison. This entire city is going down the drain. It makes me sick.
@lorimarie8771
Without a trial he died an innocent man 😢
@annaczarny163
I lost already before I was ten the belief that the world with humans is a good place. Humans are self entitled and cruel af. No Im not an exception.
@annaczarny163
It speaks very much for you to respect peoples feelings instead oft chasing after algorythm. Too many YTer dont care.
@shamBOT666
Stephanie… Neighbors can be nightmares!
I have regretted getting into every conversation, except a few rare gems. Trash out on their porch for weeks, fights with spouses, ignoring children at complex pool, park too many cars in the limited complex lot, one openly hates LGBTQ+…………. I really just have 0 desire to talk to most new humans.
I cherish my dear family and friendships, and basically, we are just drama free and awesome 🤷♀️ 😂😉😘
@terrigaines1812
I live in a townhouse community and I know almost all of our neighbors. I made it a point to meet them and get to know them. You have to take the time to get to know people.
@jennyk9748
You are definitely not alone in not knowing, or wanting to know, your neighbors! It's nothing personal, we're just a little anti-social and insular. I totally get it. I get anxiety at just the thought of people knocking on my door!
@The63blonde
I'm kind of confused about the part where he hung himself. No jail allows shoelaces! All prisoners are given rubber flip-flops for things like Crocs
@mightygeshe
The hand drawn map was how to get to the cabin. No internets back then.
@mightygeshe
Stephanie, John purchased the place from Sarah’s grandparents. He could see right in her house from his.
@GhostGang0.0
As a single mother of two, I'm judged by everyone for everything. Especially the school. The school here will call CPS for everything. They for real called CPS on me because my child was giving then trouble at school and they wanted me to come pick her up, but I was sleeping because it was 9 am on my day odd. So I missed them phone call. I woke up an hour later and called them, but because I didn't answer their phone call, they called CPS on me. They have called on me several other times throughout the year for normal everyday reasons. Like calling on me because I was extremely sick back in December, and I rescheduled a parent teacher meeting. It's absolutely ridiculous the amount of stress and judgment that are put on single parents these days.
@arabella8439
If someone intentionally tried to rape or does assault someone, I’m so fucking confused why there’s so much pathetic grace and mercy for people like that, so they can come back out into the world and destroy more peoples lives
@TheOceanGuard
I thought the same thing about my neighbors! I've moved my times in my life and never formally met my neighbors or interacted with them, I just don't like forced conversation and I prefer privacy and being alone especially in my home.
@makenzimaus4079
I will never get over Stephanie being in a very sensitive and traumatic moment and then an ad starts screaming at me “Arby’s we have the meats”
@brckmsn
Hi Stephanie, I'm responding to you ending comments of part 3 of this series. I am with you girl and get out more and say hello to your neighbors from time to time. I do, even tho one of them has multiple dogs that bark and howl none stop. hehe. Peace.
@kg322
Dryden was a horrible place to live those years. Steven Star was a teacher of mine, and one of his daughters really liked to play drums (I played drums as well). They were a beautiful family.
@rachelbecker215
I just watched the Dryden cheerleaders compete and learned the story and came to watch. So close to me so heartbreaking.
