The Most Dangerous Criminals That You Never Heard About

Whether it's the extent of their actions, how they got caught, or the continued search for their identities, some offenders are pretty well known. Alongside the mobsters, thieves, and other offenders we may recognize from the media, movies about their lives, and documentaries, there are criminals who committed comparable - if not bigger - offenses, but we don't know much about them.

To read more about these little known people who broke the law in MAJOR ways, go hre:

I used to know the daughter of one of Robert Hansen‘s victims. She’s in her 40’s and still struggling with what had happened to her mother. May that loser Butcher Baker rest in hell.

I have a cousin who was named John Booth. He changed his name about 20 years or so ago. Can't say I blame him. I'd be mad if my parents named me after a famous murderer/assassin, even if it was unintentional. [I think it had something to do with it being a family name on his father's side, but I'm not sure.] But, at least his parents had the good sense not to give him the middle name of Wilkes.

Russia definitely got the better end of that deal

You should do a video about animal serial killers. Animals like the Maneaters of Tsavo or Gustav the killer crocodile.

Puppet History has a great episode on Newton and Chaloner. ❤

And they would have gotten away with it, too... if not for those meddling kids!

[juliesarnoff-clark]

Can you do a video about John Dillinger please?

[andrewschoppe]

That was the easiest setup for a joke ever, and you blew it!! (candlestick maker)

Oh dear many of these criminals I’ve heard of !!

Douglas Mandichak of Maple Shade, NJ. He went on an arson spree when he was 19 in some weird attempt to achieve his dream of becoming a firefighter. (He got a job cleaning the station and figured if there were so many fires that they would let him join the brigade because they would be in desperate need of manpower. Like I said, his reasoning was weird.)
After getting out of prison, he was again arrested for the murder of a 17-year-old girl, the niece of his accomplice Christopher Mikels (who, as the story goes, had been sexually ab*sing her for years). The two killed her behind a local bowling alley, where Mikels had also stashed cleaning products and a change of clothes for both of them, and dumped her body in the nearby river. Mandichak apparently did the "dirty work" and wanted to toss her baby into the river but at the last minite, they decided to leave the child on the front lawn of a random house in a neighboring town, leaving the baby strapped in a carseat.
I only know about the case because they went to the same church I did when I was growing up. Quite honestly, his whole family seemed a bit off. As in, even as a kid I seemed to be more intellectually advanced than his parents were. I really hated going Christmas caroling because they would come along and they'd always be a nightmare to deal with. There were rumors the parents might have been first cousins, which wouldn't have been all that surprising. And, I wasn't supposed to know about this but learned through eavesdropping, but either he or his brother (possibly both) was born without an a**hole.
To quote my father years later, "I think that whole clan was cursed."
True crime is usually disturbing, but when you're a third party on the outside looking in, it's really strange. But without a doubt, it's definitely better than being a perpetrator or even worse, a victim.
The story still gives me chills...

Line #1: Searchers are those that look for missing persons.

They know little of what they've done

8:37 we should have guessed there'd be a Kill Bill reference whenever a crime involving martial arts is mentioned

[jsmalls]

I always think of using all three names of a criminal like when your parents are mad and they use your whole name. John Wilkes Booth, you better get inside this house right now and clean your room!!

We should have left Griner to rot in jail instead of trading her for a top arms dealer.

I’ve lost faith in humanity a long time ago after watching the news, witnessing people preferring to record on their phone than actually helping, people rather snail crawl on the road to watch car crash’s, why the news only covers tragedy severely because that’s what gets the views, and seeing social media.

[Thatsgold]

I think you mean "Little *Known* Criminals" not "Little Know"

[roberthiltz]

Dude drew maps of where he buried people? Wow that is dumb
