A man confessed on his deathbed to killing a 10-year-old girl and her mother, closing a 24-year-old cold case in Beckley, West Virginia.
After the confession, officials found remains believed to be those of Susan and Natasha “Alex” Carter, her daughter, in Beckley on Monday.
The mother and daughter were last seen on 8 August 2000.
Larry Webb, who was indicted in October 2023, confessed to the crime after investigators visited him at the Hilltop nursing home center earlier in April.
Before he died in custody, he admitted to burying their bodies in his back yard, according to a West Virginia state police news conference on Tuesday.
I'm going to guess there was a bunch of signs but the cops fucked it up. She lived with the guy.
Wdym? SVU copaganda has told me that cops solve all cases in a hard but fair manner, and they don't stop until they found the perpetrator - and here it is, they got him! Yes he had to confess in his death bed but that's a minor detail.
I know you're joking but your average IRL United States police officer is painfully painfully stupid or narrow minded.
I mean, they had him in custody for the murder before he confessed. That last part seems unfair.
Never forget the LA police force had writers on a very popular show called Dragnet. Fuck the police in all their glory filled heads.
"As Alyssa Rosenberg documented in her exhaustive, seminal 2016 Washington Post series on law enforcement in film and television, one of the first popular police procedurals, Dragnet, which premiered in 1951, worked in full collaboration with the LAPD and its police chief, William Parker, on storylines and logistical help, in exchange for script approval by the police."

It's west virginia, so yeah.
Yeah. I'm tired of having these places where cops are not held accountable. I hope her family sues the force, all officers involved, and their captain with all ending in bankruptcy.
Thank the Lord that Christianity allows this man to enter paradise since he was able to "repent" before he died. That's the most important thing here.
Turning the other cheek is required for Christians after they see all horrible people who flipped at the last second and got into heaven.
I remember even at like the age of 10 when I was still steeped in this shit. Deep. I would still think about how this was kind of a cheat code, and kind of bullshit.
Yup. And let's hope the mom and her child repented for any sins before they were murdered, or they don't get tickets to heaven. /s
Same thing for Islam. For Judaism, you don't go to heaven eitherway.
Fuck. Now he gets to go to heaven on a loophole technicality. Well played, sir. /s
Only if he says he's sorry.
Well that seems fair
Seems odd nobody investigated the backyard.
They should cremate him and dump his ashes into a latrine.
Why bother with cremation?
Don't want unaware people to report the body.
A coward on multiple levels.
