Did Lisa McVey Trick Bobby Joe Long Into Letting Her Go?

She told him she'd be his secret girlfriend. She told him her father was dying and she was his only caretaker. She asked him questions to build rapport. She was seventeen years old, blindfolded, in a serial killer's apartment — and she was running a psychological operation designed to keep herself alive. Every word Lisa McVey said to Bobby Joe Long during those twenty-six hours was calculated. And it worked.Long had already killed at least eight women across Tampa Bay. He confessed to ten murders total. But Lisa McVey survived because she identified the one crack in his psychology — a single word in his threats — and exploited it until he drove her home and apologized.The series premiere of Surviving Serial Killers tells the story most people have never heard in full. Not just the kidnapping, but the suicide note she wrote hours before. The three years of horror at home that prepared her, in the worst possible way, for what Long did. The sergeant who rescued her from both. And the execution she attended thirty-five years later with a T-shirt that said everything: "Long... Overdue."Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
