Don Studey: Green Hollow's Defensive Wound Changes Everything

His daughter says she carried the lye. His wife's re-autopsy reportedly revealed a possible defensive wound. And an alleged accomplice has reportedly broken years of silence. The case of Donald Dean Studey and Green Hollow keeps getting harder to ignore. Lucy Studey-McKiddy alleges her father killed dozens of women over decades in the remote hills near Thurman, Iowa — Fremont County, about forty miles from Omaha — and disposed of them in wells on the family property. The alleged victims were reportedly vulnerable women from bus stops and truck stops near Omaha, women who vanished without anyone coming to look for them. Studey had a documented criminal history that included domestic violence and threats to kill family members. His own sister reportedly wrote a hundred-and-sixty-eight-page journal describing alleged killings and said her brother had no human compassion. His wife Charlotte reportedly died from a gunshot wound to the head in 1984 in Omaha. She was five-two. She'd reportedly left him after an argument. The death was ruled self-inflicted for nearly four decades — until a 2023 re-autopsy found stippling on her right arm suggesting a possible defensive wound, reclassified the shot from point-blank to indeterminate range, and changed her manner of death to undetermined. The original crime scene photos and autopsy images are missing from Omaha police files. His first wife reportedly died by hanging in 1970 — and Lucy says her father allegedly admitted for decades that he didn't mean to kill her, that he choked her too hard or too long. In 2022, cadaver dogs alerted at four locations across Green Hollow. The FBI drilled a well and left after three days. Lucy says they got the wrong one. The Paramount+ documentary My Killer Father: The Green Hollow Murders reportedly features an alleged accomplice and new witnesses. Green Hollow still has secrets.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
