Russell Ellwood is the man many believe to be "Clay the Serial Killer", the man who called The Howard Stern Show in 1997 and confessed to killing 12 women. Was Russell Ellwood "Clay the Serial Killer"? He reportedly submitted blood and tissue samples for the investigation, but nothing more is really known.Ĭlick to expand.Judging by what I can find, Victor Gant was never charged with any of the murders and not much is known about him today. In 1995 New Orleans Police Officer Victor Gant was listed as the prime suspect in the murders of his girlfriend Sharon Robinson, a New Orleans casino employee, and her friend Karen Iverster, allegedly a prostitute.Īlthough a suspect, Gant remained at his desk job with the NOPD. In 1991, a serial killer began claiming numerous victims in the Algiers and Treme neighborhoods of New Orleans, eventually credited with 24 murders throughout the 1990s. So, whatever became of "Clay the Serial Killer"? Was the FBI able to get enough information from The Howard Stern Show phone call to make an arrest? Reading comments online and on this video, it looks like I'm not alone. Unfortunately, to me, this call seems like it may actually be real. They say some of the details the caller talked about were things that only the killer would know. Obviously, one of the biggest questions here is.could this actually be real, or is "Clay" playing some sort of very sick joke?Īccording to multiple reports, what grabbed the FBI's attention during the phone call on The Howard Stern Show was that the caller revealed information about his murders that authorities say they never made public. Police later convicted Black for four murders.Allegedly the day after this aired, the FBI showed up at Stern's studios and collected the audio as evidence. Thornhill fought off her attacker, bit his arm, and ran. Black parked on a street near her house, feigning engine trouble when Thornhill approach, he grabbed her and tried to pull her in his van. In 1998, serial killer Robert Black attempted to kill Thornhill, 15. Police convicted the man, Paul Michael Stephani, for three previous murders as well as the attempted murder of Williams. Paul Fire Department, leading to the recognition of his voice as the ‘Weepy-Voiced Killer’. Little did Williams know, she survived a serial killer, with her attack leading to his conviction. Williams saw a glass bottle in the foot-well, managed to pick it up and hit her attacker across the face she fled the car and escaped. The man stabbed Williams 15 times with a screwdriver whilst she was trapped in the car. When the man turned onto a dead-end road, Williams knew something was wrong. A nearby off-duty police officer, Ben Hone, heard the sisters screaming and shot Berger, while his knife was at Lasley’s throat.ĭenise Williams, 19, was working the streets when approached by a possible customer in his car.
Despite Berger’s obvious advantages over the girls, the Lasley sisters survived by fighting for their lives. Berger weighed over 200 pounds and was 6-foot-2-inches, he attacked whilst high on meth. When her sister appeared, screaming and punching Berger, Lasley started fighting back. Lasley froze when her attacker began beating her.
On September 23 rd 2015, Robert Berger, 48, climbed through Lasley’s bedroom window in Salt Lake City and brutally attacked Bre Lasley. These are three inspiring stories of people who stared death in the face and lived to tell the tale. In a life or death situation, some people freeze or some people fight.
