Angel Reséndiz : The Railroad Killer
Season 05 : Episode 10 :
Angel Reséndiz had an uncontrollable desire to kill. He started his life with a pretty low moral compass and spent most of it stealing to make a living, but soon, instead of just robbing people, he felt like he needed to kill them and he couldn’t stop himself.

I was a young newlywed in Texas when Reséndiz was working his way through the area. Our backyard was about 200 yards from a wooded area with a creek and the train tracks. I remember actually booby trapping the back door Home Alone-style once when my husband was out of town for work because I was nervous about going to sleep. Only time I have ever been scared in my house.

This channel is a perfect reminder that monsters do, in fact, exist and walk among us. They are technically human beings, but in their minds and hearts, they barely qualify for the title of "human" at all. Always stay vigilant, because you never know when you might encounter one, as they rarely look like monsters on the outside. The subject of this video, for example, looks almost identical to my father In-law, who couldn't be a kinder or more loving man.

Any program I've watched on him have focused on the young runaways that you mentioned towards the end. I think due to this, I hadn't understood how prolific and, well, monstrous he was. It's always interesting to hear these monsters plead for the same humanity they refuse to show their victims.

Thank you for bringing closure to my childhood TV trauma. This case was covered on either America's Most Wanted or Unsolved Mysteries (don't remember which) back in the late 90's. I was like 11-12 and watched the episode and it ended with the host saying something to the effect of "so if you live anywhere within earshot of train tracks make sure the you lock all your doors and windows" I had lived in that house for a couple years but that was the 1st night I ever noticed the fact that I could hear the train horn from the tracks a couple miles away. Scared the absolute shit out of me. I couldn't sleep for days and had terrible nightmares for months. I eventually forgot about it but even into my 20s I would get freaked out any time I heard a train horn while I was in bed at night. Never knew that the case was solved until just now.
Most ironic first name ever, Angel. What a horrifying story. Love this series but it's so addictive lol. Thank you for all your hard work in bringing us these stories and reminding us that monsters can lurk just about anywhere.

For what it costs to house one prisoner for one year you could almost pay someone a living salary instead.

This sounds insanely similar to the Man from the Train theory by Bill and Rachel James. Guy rides the rails, chooses a home, kills the occupants with a hatchet taken from the home, 'inappropriately' assaults one member of the family, covers the victims with a blanket or something similar, and then hops back on a train. Only difference is that 'the man from the train' operated in the 1800s (if you believe the theory) - it's a great book, if anyone is looking for something new

I'll never forget when I was younger working at HEB here in San Antonio seeing this guy outside the store. This was a developing case at the time and I remember people were a bit on edge because of the murders and how he was train hopping. When I was getting off work that night, we had several sapd officers at our store because of an apparent theft. As I was leaving the store, around 1030, a man who looked like this guy, asked me "Why are all these cops here?" I didn't think much of it, at the time, but when I got home, a news segment was airing and I literally jumped out of bed telling my girlfriend at the time, I just saw that guy at heb. I called the police and let them know I saw him and they took a report. Talk about being so close to a serial killer. I always wondered what would or could have happened if the police were not at the store that day.
These type of people are exactly who the death penalty is for.

We have crippled ICE and shit like this will just continue like it has but worse. I feel terrible for all of the immigrants who have done things the correct way, the legal way, and then other citizens from their former countries do things like this.

A prime example of why catch and release doesn't work, even if he didn't commit any murders or crimes. The boarder needs to be secured and patrolled. Foreign criminals committing such heinous crimes should be given no quarter, no last meal, and no marker for their grave.

Wow!! This is Monsters has quickly become my favorite true crime podcast! I just discovered you last week and I’m listening to every season from the beginning! Your narration and research is amazing!!! 💫💫🔥🔥
Normally when I wake up for work Monday morning my routine is to watch the new episode of monsters and this morning when I got up nothing no new sinister episode or monsters I had a off day until now I love these episodes and really appreciate them you do awesome work but now I'm gonna be up late watching this one finally
A conservative libertarian that hated capitalism??? I don't think he understood politics as well as he thought he did.

For some strange reason, everytime I hear a train blaring past or see a train, I think of evil. I must be watching too many true crime shows about railway killers.

I think of that "Hey Arnold" episode where there is the ghost train lol the ghost conductor is the one that honks the steam bell 🔔🔔 🚂
What an infuriating story. I normally don’t get very emotional about true crime stories but this one is especially annoying. The idiots on the border could have stopped him but instead he goes on to kill again and again Just pathetic. Do your goddamned job ffs.

I had an Uncle "Peg"; he lost a leg at age 14, while jumping a train during the depression. Ironically, his grandson & my cousin, Patrick, lost an arm in Viet Nam. He used to say they had a "limb deficiency". Haha.

@@wingolamo 👍He& my g'mother, twins, were the youngest of 10, born late in life (aftr a 12 yr break! lol) to 2nd gen Irish parents. They were very close. I'm the only cousin with her dark hair & blue eyes; when she died- I was 6- he favored me. If anyone looked at me the wrong way he'd poke em with his crutch, say, "Be sweet to my baby!". He did so til he died in '78- i was 14! I loved him. A beautiful creek borders the 4o rural Alabama acres we lived on. (I still do) We played, swam there all the time. A RR track was nearby. When we were kids he told us a train "bit his leg off" to keep us from going near it... it worked! Lol. Maybe too good• a few of my cousins would run, screaming, when we heard a train in the distance. He was a mess♡

Absolutely love your posts! 🍻 Great work my dude.
Another great production. Thank you.
It's always a nice surprise whenever I get a "This is Monsters" notification. The videos are never disappointing. One of my top 5 content makers.

I am Texan, I hope you weren't being judgemental of our laws. I'm not arguing the right or wrong of the death penalty, just that it's our law, so if you don't want die in TX by lethal injection don't murder people here with the added offenses that qualify your crime. It's pretty simple actually!! I'm not saying we aren't a different breed, we are!! If you are here and need help you will probably get all you need, come here for some BS, well....

@theOGgarf I agree, have watched for years. We do get kind of a bad wrap over that sometimes, and as you saw I have no desire to try to change anyone's beliefs. Most Texans are really great people, I don't know about the whole state, but where I am the people are good hearted.. I guess somewhere along the way we decided 0 tolerance for people who kill, and rob, kill and rape, and so on. To get death you have to have another atrocity added to murder. Have a great night, and thank you for replying

On a philosophical level I agree that rapists, serial killers, etc deserve to die, however I oppose the death penalty because of the inherent risk that the state will make a mistake, or voluntarily frame someone who is innocent, and get them killed. The risk is too big, in my opinion.

@Merjacevi I completely understand, and in my own Texan way agree. I sat a death penalty case, and was convinced to a lvl I could recommend death, I was however convinced to the point I could recommend death in a TX prison, by old age. A person who I felt needed someone with a weapon monitoring him every minute of every day

"They clearly don't understand Texas" Lol as a born and raised Texan (who lives elsewhere now) you are 100% correct on that lol. Texas is definitely the "best" at death row.
Jiles, you, my good man ... Do one heck of a job putting out well researched content!!
I lived in West University in Houston fir 2.5 years. There’s definitely a freight rail track at one end of the “village”. I remember viewing a house for rent over there, but it was litterally backing onto the train track. Now I’m wondering if this could have been the house of the Baylor lady, Dr Claudia Benton. :(
Another great presentation! Thanks for continued excellence in your work!

The attention to detail. The mixture of sarcasm and seriousness. Ode to the victims instead of going on and on about the serial killer only. This channel gets better with age.
Excellent job, one of the most thorough jobs on this case I’ve heard-👍🏾
I was a senior in high school in central tx in 1999 and we called this dude the choo choo chopper lol
We found out after hed been arrested that he stayed in the county I live working on a tobacco farm for a little while,their was always a large group of Mexicans living there,crazy
This is why we need the wall!
Another well written story well worth telling. 👏
Congrats on your fantastic channel. The recent aesthetic changes are great.
