TX - Unidentified victims of Dean Corll, Houston Serial Killer, 1970-1973

I don't think it's Gary unfortunately.

Nevermind, I went back through all 3 yearbooks, 1970-1972, found both brothers, not him.

Prolific serial killer Dean Corll was shot dead 48 years ago today. A search will soon begin for the remains of any additional victims.

WOW! This…is simply stunning news. Way to go, Tim Miller! He knows how it feels to have a missing loved one. His lovely teenage daughter, Laura, was a victim of a serial killer. She is the reason he founded Texas EquuSearch,.

Right?! Spectators were close enough to touch the boys’ bodies as they were being exhumed!

Yes, the bathing-suited onlookers could have jumped in the graves if they wanted. Their hairs were probably all over the dead bodies.

I live just North of Houston so I see updates on my local news. It's a crazy story.

Yea, and learning as I go further with my research, the rabbit holes are deep and there are many

‘The boys need to be found’: Texas EquuSearch looking for more victims killed under prolific Houston serial killer ‘The Candy Man’

I am a bit surprised they are searching the Lamar St residence, seems like Corll made a point to bury the victims further away, although the early report of digging and burying “spoiled candy” at the former candy factory seems suspect. Is the section of High Island beach where bodies originally were recovered still underwater?

I mean, it can't really hurt to try. It's a fairly contained space for excavation, as opposed to High Island. They might be saving the HI area (and the Lake Sam Rayburn location) for later?

Although human remains were not found, we received several significant leads as a result.

Did any of you watch the documentary on Dean Corll and John Wayne Gacy on Discovery Plus? Its called "The Clown and The Candyman" I believe. I can't remember for certain but I thought there was a photograph of the family candy story before it was shut down in 1968. I can't find that picture anywhere. Anyone here know what the address of the building was? Is it still there? <modsnip> If I cant find one I will drive down there and get one if the building still stands.

I did find the address for the candy shop. Local listings site. 505 W 22nd St. - Houston-

You can look at the building on google maps through the satellite view. I’m going to drive down there in the next couple of days and check it out.

Pretty sure it was replaced with townhomes...took some stills off Google and made a post about it on my page (would definitely be interested in that photo if you can find it)

Yes, the old candy factory building was torn down some years ago. There is a town home in its place now.

Just to clarify, the exact wording and spelling of Hawkins statement to police says "Possibly graduated from Ragean High School or Waldrip High School" and the teenager depicted in this image provided by TheHauntedOne is definitely Ridinger. I wonder if the guy sitting in the van is Lewandowski..

Can I ask you for one little flavor? In general, I noticed that there are very few publicly available photographs of Brooks. So, can you look up pictures of him in school yearbooks?

I Read 48 minuten and was highly confused

Mmm, eek. I wonder what's hidden in the ground.
