I think it would be great if we could do a poll of members, see just how many victims we all think will be the final tally.
Me, personally? We will never know. They will never find all of them, nor be able to link him to them if they do. Because in the beginning, I think this was all about killing and torturing things, quietly, getting his rocks off. Didn't want to get caught because he would have to stop. And back then, he was really careful. Hid things really well. Later on, his ego got the better of him and he wanted the notoriety and fame he saw other, "lesser" killers receiving....wanted his due. IIRC he expressed disdain for BTK because he confessed and said he was sorry, IK thought that was lame and weak.
And, FWIW, ITA with Foxfire on him getting himself caught with Samantha's ATM card. That was incredibly stupid, reckless, and completely unnecessary. He HAD to know that was going to lead them straight to him. IMVHO.....and apparently didn't care, or wanted that. IMO, either for the fame and notoriety, which would be utter BS if what he claimed about wanting to protect his daughter were true. Unless!! he thought that getting caught, giving up enough information to get the death penalty quickly and quietly and go away forever would be protecting her. Hmmmmmmm.
He was at one of his younger sisters weddings. Any father would be thinking about his daughter growing up and getting married. Her future. Not to mention that his family was preaching at him at every turn, for hours at a time. Maybe he thought him getting caught would be the best way to secure her future.
Just my demented ramblings for the day. :twocents:
great idea Lucky1 about the poll....My 2 cents and opinion here....I am with you...I don't think every victim will ever be linked to him and moo---I think Keyes started way before 2001...Yes he would have been young but at 14 he was already breaking into homes...carrying a "gun" with him everywhere he went, as released in the newest press release...In my mind I wonder if some of those homes were set on fire by arson???....I just tend to think after he saw he could break in homes, steal many things...he more or likely killed a few while in these homes..as he said "I got away with this because no one would think of a boy my age breaking and entering"...even if it would have been him breaking in homes it may have been him killing any known family pets..but he got his "URGE" I feel at a very very young age and I know I keep bringing up the subject of not being able to find anything in all my reading and searching on the Father.....I just get a feeling Keyes learned some bad behavior from someone in that family and while I have been reading on some other cases that date back before Keyes known times...Some are almost a match to his known ways makes me wonder if somehow the father might have been doing some "funny work" also, we know the children in this family all state they were raised in a very strict home environment..but "strict" could mean several different things to me...and I go back once again to some known childhood friends the Kehoe's...Their father was arrested along with the sons and he was convicted of the breaking in of the home where the father, mother and the daughter were all killed, only for the Kehoe's to gain access to the Gun Collection of this family...so could Father Keyes been somewhat like Kirby Kehoe??.....I know we are on here to try and find possible victims of IK....but sometimes having a better understanding of family members will sure make it easier to know exactly where to start
On IK'S victims....As released in new article...He has already traveled more miles that Bundy did, I feel there will probably be a number higher than Bundy..seems he was in this also to out-do his idols and etc...I think he wanted to be the newest High Number Killer...I put it at 70 plus and I feel if there is a possible way, he will be known to have killed outside the US also....Egypt???....Belize for almost 1 month...Mexico and I don't think his travel timeline is finished yet, as the FBI searches more and learns more I believe it will become larger and larger...but this is all moo and based on my inner thoughts on IK
