Reddit Hunts a Mass Murderer Before He Kills Again

from Brew · host Brew

In November 2022, an unknown killer was on the loose in Idaho and Reddit was determined to track them down.On the morning of Sunday the 13th, police received a frantic 911 call from a student home near the University of Idaho. A girl in the house seemed to be ‘unconscious’ and not responding.But when officers arrived, they discovered that the student in question wasn’t unconscious. She was dead. Her boyfriend was found in the room with her—also dead. And in another bedroom on the third floor, two more students—dead as well.With four students killed, no leads, and rumors of a ‘masked stranger’ being seen leaving the house earlier that morning, the culprit could have been anyone. But after weeks of no updates or any sign the police were still even looking for the killer, Redditors decided to take matters into their own hands, believing they had the resources, manpower, and dedication to find the person responsible for the deaths of four university students.After all, they’d solved cases before. Now, of course Reddit’s hunt for the Boston Bombers in 2013 ended in disaster, but surely they had learned from their mistakes and wouldn’t make the same ones this time around… Right?But nearly a decade had passed since Reddit’s disastrous manhunt, and they were no longer the default home for armchair detectives. TikTok’s internet sleuths were also convinced that the official investigation was going nowhere and that they would be the ones to help get the job done.But when helping the police turns into a frantic race to see who will correctly identify the culprit first… will anyone win? Or will this become the most destructive internet manhunt in history?📺 How Internet Sleuths Solved a Crime Before It Happened: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqD_8LgyDyM📺 Reddit's Hunt for The Boston Bombers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vO1d3Is3f-EBig thank you to our supporters ☕️Carlos The Goat, TH30PHYLL1N3, Comrade Ivan, Little Bit, Jar, Andro D, Patrik, Oreo Cat, Dood Prinny, Dark maestro, Kylee Peterson, Maphilindo, Sib3riaN_T3cK, Giulia Mahovlic, japanese anime lover1, Little Bit, Dr Gerardo Poli, Mugged, Neko the cat, razhbi, Richard Lim, Phil Ng, Rigor Mortis, 1tastiger1, Kendalle Curtis, InGameLevi, Ella Orr, Tara Baney, Monica doing sleepstream, Jocuulatrix, Theophylline, jgamma, Mafins, ~AtlasVRC, Merrey Loosli, Daniel Joe, Maggie Danger, Toast, Doomguy, LordStarLord Kirby, Drarko, Yuven Tharan, Chipsy, Taha Cooking Vlog, Raven, Rusty Gear, Fuuka Yamagishi, Nocturnal, miya, Rain, BSL 🐖, Witchy Honeybee, Heartmeister2003, Novozájmena, Lordvasile (Richard L), LORNE, Mateus Lopes, Tygressrose, 이호근방송, Kai Games송Credits: https://rentry.co/vsp9we88
