Cruelty of the Axe

from The Murder Capitol · host Harry Glemser

It was the middle of the night. It was February 22, 1991 and it was 2:00am to be precise. It was Cherry Hill, NJ, and it was the apartment of a beautiful single woman, Yeda De De Rosenthal, W/F 33, living alone, sound asleep in her upper lever apartment after a tiring day at work. A drug fiend, serial killer, axe murderer, rapist was slithering into her world.  He would murder her in cold blood, rape her, rob her apartment and dump her body in a desolate landfill…but he wouldn’t be finished.In 1995 he would kill again! He would take an AXE to his girlfriend’s head, make her 14-year-old daughter watch it, then hold the child hostage for several hours as he tortured and forced his evilness upon her. Left unchecked and uncaught, who knows what unspeakable future atrocities he may have unleashed on the public at the hands of this crazed madman with an AXE!  As tirelessly as the police worked, as relentless as they were, they would never be completely satisfied.
