Todd Kohlhepp was convicted of murdering seven people in South Carolina between 2003 and 2016.
This is a case which broke after the MWM podcast started and one we've followed very closely when it was a missing persons case.
Kala Brown and Charlie “David” Carver had gone missing on August 31, 2016. As the family searched for them, Charlie’s Facebook page became active. Posing as David, Kohlhepp posted messages in response to questions by both families.
Police were able to trace the phone being used to post the messages but they were unprepared for what they found.

Denyer attacked and murdered three young women; Elizabeth Stevens, Deborah Fream and Natalie Russell over a 7 week period as part of a larger stalking campaign that began months earlier.
In February he had broken into a woman’s apartment and defiled the place, as well as prank calling the woman repeatedly. He had also killed the woman’s cat. He had ransacked other homes too before he progressed to murder. He had attempted to kill a fourth woman Rosca Toth, but she escaped Denyer who then found another victim that same night.
