I don't understand why the camp would find clear signs that some creeper was breaking in, trespassing and threatening taking the lifes of some little girls. Yet they ignored it completely, didn't tell anyone, didn't increase any safety measures, nothing.. those poor girls were so alone in the tent they were in... Then no adults check on them or stay with them (when i went to outdoor school in 6th grade we had individual wooden cabins with wooden bunk beds on each side of each cabin wall. With a supervisor that stayed with us each night. One counselor per cabin. It's crazy the lack of safety these girls were in especially with the threats yet they didn't change anything. Eerie how they found a hidden hideout cave type spot in the nearby Area... This case is just something right out of a horror movie. It was that one girls FIRST time being on her own away from home and her family. Let that sink in.. imagine losing your life the way they did the FIRST time you were staying somewhere without your family?? What a nightmare..

I do agree that the warning signs should have been taken more seriously, and acted upon. They could have hired security to patrol the grounds. As for the one counselor per campground, and not in the tent with the girls, that was totally a 70s thing (probably before that too. I never went to scout camp, but when I did my sixth grade wilderness trip, we were in cabins of 4 girls per, and no counselors roomed with us. I have no idea if there was security, but I kind of doubt it. My experience happened right around 50 years ago.

This case haunts me. To think one of the little girls wrote home wanting to come back cause she hated camp 😢

I was a girl scout for 12 years. Whispering Hills GS Camp are some of the most wonderful memories I have, even 25 years later! To think anything sinister could happen there is unreal!!!

Who in their right mind puts three little girls by themselves in a tent in the woods without an adult in the tent with them? The camp should've been charged with something.

That’s just the way it was back then, and I’m glad. I went to GS camp for 4 summers, from 1976-‘80. First, I can’t imagine having a counselor in our tent every night, UGH! Secondly, even if a staff member HAD been present in those girls’ tent the night of this tragedy, there most likely would have been four murders instead of three. The killer came well-prepared, don’t forget that. What do you think a 20-something female camp counselor could have done if she awoke to a killer in the tent? Be realistic. Like she would have been armed or a martial arts black belt or . . . 🙄 . . . whatever? A criminally-experienced psychopath bent on raping/murdering little girls would have had zero problem getting rid of an adult. She would have been the first one to die, too!

So. True. Why would they even still hold it at that location when their tents were rummaged through before hand? So dumb

My mom lives about a mile from where Camp Scott was and we're Cherokee Nation citizens. I've asked a lot of people who were alive then for their opinions about Hart's involvement. This may be similar to the Avery case where two things can be true. I think it's likely that Gene Hart was involved, but I also think it's possible that he was being "railroaded." Thanks for another interesting story!

Now I know how some of you feel when a story is close to home. I was a college student living in the Tulsa area when this happened. Two years later I was at OSU and met a young woman who had been a counselor at that camp when it happened. She said she was still suffering PTSD, although I don't think we had that term for it yet. I can't listen to this now, late at night. But maybe tomorrow during the day. Awful and terrifying is how I remember it.

If a child says they don't want to go somewhere, just listen to them, you never know - it could be gut instinct. I refused to go on a cub scout trip, and it later turned out that some boys were abused on that trip. Just so glad my mother listened. This is the most horrific sad case though. That man probably had an accomplice for three girls to be sexually abused and murdered like that.

It truly weights heavy on my heart and mind hearing all the evil that lives inside so many. I can't imagine how frightening this would have been for all of these young girls. The absolute pure terror of waking up to a stranger in your tent and seeing your new friends being hurt and killed would have been absolute hell on earth. I can only hope they went unconscious quickly and never knew what was untimely going to happen to them and their friends.

I was young when this happened. As a child, my mom used to ship me off over summer holidays to camp. I was in the Appalachian mountains though. I can't imagine being in this camp during this time. I also think the directors could have done more to secure the camp especially when so many things were happening leading up to this event. Or at least moved that furthest tent closer or added additional cots into other tents.

I cannot BELIEVE those three young girls were assigned the tent farthest away from the counselor's tent and partially obscured from view by the shower building. The 8-year-old was the youngest camper, and she's the farthest away?? I would've been terrified there at night without an adult. Granted it was the late '70s, but bad things happened back then too. My daughters went to camp in 5th grade (10, 11 years old), and EACH CABIN had a counselor who was 18 years old or above who slept in the cabin with the campers. This was so sickeningly sad. What those poor baby girls went through...😢.

I was a Girlscout Leader for a couple years for my daughter’s troop (2003-2004). When we went camping, 1 adult was in every tent! Definitely can’t imagine all little girls sleeping alone in the woods. I should clarify; the camps we went to all had those same platform style tents. We still had 1 adult in each tent.

The little girl crying out for Mama broke me😢

I was 13 in 1977, and a Girl Scout from ages 6 - 17 (Brownie to Senior GS.) I went to Camp Anna Behrens in Michigan for 4 summers from 1976 to ‘80. Same set-up as the camp these poor girls attended; 2 weeks, same tents, etc. Only heard about this tragedy a few years back. And I mean NEVER, not in the news or through the Girls Scouts. To be honest, I’m glad the internet, social media, & 24/7/365 news saturation weren’t around when I was a kid. My memories of summers at camp are all good - no fear, constant hovering by counselors, or obvious security surrounding the camp. We went on long hikes, sat around bonfires, & ran around without adults much of the time. No one felt unsafe in our unsecured canvas tents at night. I went to camp on the canoeing option every summer, culminating in a 200-mile, 5-day trip my final year. We were m/l free to just be kids back then, despite the “grown-ups” knowing about hideous crimes like this one. GREAT JOB on the video. You dig up more details & photos than similar channels. Thank you! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

My Grandparents lived near the camp and I remember adults keeping their children closer after this.

Nothing is worse then knowing something isn't solved and some. " monster" got away with the crime. Especially to children

My parents were very protective over me.. I was a brownie and a Girl Scout but my father went with me to sell cookies in the neighborhood, and I was only allowed to have very few sleepovers, only with close family friends.

Thanks so much!

Well done documentary. I was a Girl Scout volunteer for 23 years. I started as a parent/helper and continued on to service unit manager for the area where I lived. I loved camping and teaching the girls how to camp. What I did not love was the constant feeling of dread when we went camping. Because of what happened in Oklahoma scout camps are no longer identified with a sign on the road. Scout camps, boy or girl, are like a smorgasbord for anyone who wants to harm a child. I stopped using scout camps and started using state parks. There is more than one person driving or walking around to keep an eye on things and if police presence is needed they are already there. I didn’t know about the Oklahoma Girl Scout murders until around 1980 when 20/20 or Dateline or another news magazine did a story about it. Apparently I was just paranoid for no reason.

Nothing makes me more angry then innocent kids getting hurt.

This is one of THE most heartbreaking things I have ever heard. I just can't wrap my head around the many mistakes at that place. If, if, if only... Can't even begin to understand what those innocent little angels went thru or their loved ones after. Especially the one who didn't want to go. How anyone could do such a thing and live with themselves. And Kristen Chenowith feeling guilt, which she absolutely should not! Thank God they closed that place. REST IN PEACE little ones. So sorry for their families and loved ones.🙏🏼🕊️💔😮‍💨 Thank you Jiles

The fourth camper was sent to the Cherokee Unit by mistake. The head counselor of the Kiowa unit testified to this during the pre-trial. According to her, she was going to get the 4th girl the following day. A decision that saved that girls life.

No words for this one….it’s beyond sad and horrifying. 😭😭😭😭😭 I think it’s worth noting that in the years prior to these monstrous murders of the three little girls, there had been reports of unusual activities in the surrounding forests. Some believed that these unexplained activities could be attributed to the presence of Sasquatches in the region. After watching this video/podcast I tend to think that there were human monsters involved, of which Gene Leroy Hart was certainly the most evil one. RIP to these precious little girls. 💔💔💔

This episode simply breaks my heart for the child and her family...❤

Ive been around since the beginning of the channel and i cant wait til you hit a million Jiles....i cant think of anyone who deserves it more. You are amazing at what you do from the research and detail to the narration. Lets go a Million Monsters!!!

I cannot believe all of the situations that the Camp Counselors ignored and just Brushed off!!!, RIP LITTLE ANGELS🥹🥹🥹

Looking forward to this upload, as well as all the others you have done,💯, shout out to the family✌🏻💕

thank god my kids camp, a counsler sleeps in EVERY cabin with the kids, so theirs always a grown up. Thats crazy! SO scary, SO sad. Poor babies, just trying to be big girls on their camping trip away from home. Wow. heartbreaking

The 4th girl that was supposed to be in the tent was at the camp, it was a scheduling mistake, not her being sick. All parents and counselors have said this

You are correct. The fourth camper was in the Cherokee unit and was going to re-join the Kiowa unit the following day (per testimony). Pretty easy thing to confirm considering the pre-trial transcript is available to read online... But this wouldn't be the first KZread video to completely drop the ball with the facts in this case and it certainly won't be the last.

Note said three. Someone on staff knew something, someone pre warned, something.

@@frankieseidlThe note was destroyed 2 months prior to the murders. Many have speculated on what the note said, but they were going off of 2 month old memories which are highly unreliable. So, there is no way to know for certain what the note said. Something else to keep in mind is that the note was found during counselor training and the tents that would typically have 3 people in them were the counselor's tents. The note was ultimately written off as an attempt at scaring the other counselors during their training by Barbara Day.

Growing up in Oklahoma, this is one of those campfire stories that really scared the hell out of us.

They shouldn't tell this case at a campfire. They could scare or traumatizing many children.

@@terrancewyckoff I don't know what you mean, but the fact that this is a real case, makes it even scarier.

Not sure why they place the youngest member of the group in the most further tent from the adults especially when there was a strange pwrson lurking around

Today marks 47 years since this tragic case. After watching videos about this, I have a bad taste in my mouth. I can't imagine how scared those poor girls must have been and how devastated their families must have been. Rest in peace Denise, Lori and Michelle.

The way they ignored every sign of danger

Missed the “This…is Monsters” in the intro. 😔 Please put it back 💗

I do not believe for a minute that young girls in a tent in the woods without a counselor also sharing that space would so easily be falling back to sleep....no way

I was glad to see this, but had to check.my watch. Lol. I'm used to seeing these at around 3 am. Thank you!

How is this unsolved? It's 100% the Cherokee guy

Loving this channel

This will always be my bedtime night show. Keep the stories coming

Wouldn’t wanna unfairly judge a serial rapist now would we…..

What a wild story. Absolutely gut-wrenching

This case haunts me to this very day. I was the unit clerk that took the call from the Girl Scouts when Dr. Farmer was told his precious baby girl was dead. It was so horrible. Basically, he was almost carried out of St. John's Medical Center to go home and tell his wife. I don't know how you continue on after something like this and I've buried a baby. This is so much worse than my situation was. I wish the families peace..... BTW, the Girl Scouts handled this situation very poorly. They took all the other Girl Scouts on a walk in the woods before the buses got there to take them home. Also, it was on the radio long before they told Dr. Farmer. I think the Girl Scouts have some culpability in this situation. They didn't kill those girls but they made it easy for someone to do it. Just my opinion.

Don’t forget that there was a hand written note found inside an empty doughnut box that said “We are on a mission to kill three girls in tent one” before the girls were killed, but the camp thought it was a prank and ignored it. Not only was there a warning this would happen, but the note even says “We”. Could this just be a prank and coincidence? Maybe. The note does say tent one instead of tent eight, but if you’re unfamiliar with the camp I can see someone mixing the first and last tent.

The note was found 2 months prior during the counselors training which is why it was written off as a dark humored prank and attempt to scare the other counselors. The wording in the note has never been confirmed because it was discarded and they're going off the memories of several young adults who read the note 2 months prior to the murders.

How would someone know the exactl number in a particular tent ?

I was just wondering why the counselor's tent was not in the middle of the group of tents

Did they test Gene's hand-writing against the earlier notes left in the donut box?

Yooooo is it opposite day??? Seeing a 6pm upload is crazy!!

Probably one of the most disturbing of the unsolved crimes iceberg

Horrifying!! 😞

This and a couple of other cases really freak me out. The whole case when laid out reads like a vile horror story. The woman who at the time was a little girl and was ill so she didn't go camping, must struggle a lot with survivers guilt. If I were in that scenario when thinking about the what ifs, would physically make me want to throw up.

Very sad. I’ve never heard about this. Great reporting.

It's a very well known case. You must be new to the true crime genre.

I Look Forward To All Of Your Content!!!

As soon as I started hearing details about this story a few minutes in, I immediately started writing this and paused it... This one haunted me and can never find anything that "holds my attention" (best way to say keep listening/watching) involved with the taking of and murdering innocence. . Never want to hear about this case again.

Unbelievable there should have been more people watching those poor girls. Horrible truly a monster

Hi jiles, just a reminder that you're awesome and I really appreciate all the work you do bruv. Also, as my internal narrator, can you laugh out loud just once so my psyche can register what my internal narrator sounds like when it laughs. That'll be great thanks...😂😂😂
