The second one is that if he felt they are so inferior, him spending so much time working to poison them reduces his "value". I feel like he would have chosen a swift way if that was the case, something that straight up says "f you, peasant, you're nobody and I've got the power".

Also, the boys were confrontational and threatening when they would ask them to stop with the noise. This video portraits then as quiet, innocent victims.

For many people already on a tight budget, that money for the emergency room visit was going to have to come out of money that was already earmarked for a different non-negotiable cost of living, such as utilities bills, or rent/mortgage payment. Not saying I can even speculate as to the state of their relationship, but plenty of people who did love each other still may not have been able to financially justify an emergency room bill.

Susan is a damn CHAMPION! In the 80's and 90's was a tough time to catch criminals as DNA and CSI was in its infancy. So all detectives had was grit and guts to figure sh*t out. Great vid good work!

Narrator: "This was the work of a highly intelligent individual. One that would be really very to catch." Murderer: gives it away within the first 3 seconds of police questioning

Leaves the family a (hand-written?) warning note, leaves the unused Coca-Cola bottles still containing the poison, uses a common poison, gives police a motive by talking bad about the victims, holds murder parties with a similar clue about not eating or drinking after being threatened, leaves the empty poison container in his house, writes in his journal about getting rid of his neighbors- this man is a true genius 😆 He's now stuck in prison which is usually very loud and you can't choose your cellie or neighbors.

And later incriminated himself yet again by saying stuff that wasn't public knowledge that had matched what the case was about. Plenty of "less smart" criminals are more careful than that. Guy was a psycho narcissist without the actual intelligence to back it up... What a delusional piece of shit that man was. Glad to see the family got closure and the guy got an ending as painful as the poor mother he killed (as much as the justice system could provide, obviously, since so far it seems there wasn't a death by poisoning type of sentence).

He was a part of Mensa soooooo yea he was very very intelligent, I think he was so smart that it was his weakness thinking he outsmarted everyone… smart ppl often underestimate others and overestimate themselves and that’s what happen to this man, thought they didn’t have anything on him he thought he got away without leaving any evidence or anything tied to him.

I wonder, if his wife was in on it, anybody knows if she got questioned and charged as well? Reason I'm asking is, it's really hard to believe, the couple had a "secret room" in each home without her knowing.

They weren't Poisoned over loud music or noise...they were poisoned because the neighbors were jealous they didn't have a big happy family! 😩 he didn't kill them for not being as smart as him...but because they had a happy family, he was smarter and didn't...that ate him up...the Jealousy just ate him up!

Jealousy is a bastard of an emotion.

I watched another documentary about this case. Apparently George's wife complained about the neighbor's noise so much he got sick of it. That's when he decided to poison them because they ignored the warning in the note they sent. There was some suspicion that his wife was involved, but they could never prove it. He refused to implicate her claiming he acted alone. Also, the way the detective got him to confide in her was she pretended to be in awe of his genius. She played to his ego by flirting with him (his wife didn't even care) and telling him how impressed she was with his intellect. She would pose a lot of questions like "What would you do if...." as if seeking advice from him as one who admired him and appreciated him. The other documentary said the reason the mom was significantly sicker than the kids and husband was that Coke was her favorite drink, so she'd had more of it than they did. The daughter, who didn't get sick, hated Coke and didn't drink any of it the night the rest of them had.

Yes, I suspect the wife had something to do with it, because she was the chemist, and also poison is typically more of a womans way to take out a person. It would not be difficult for the wife to convince the husband to keep his mouth shut.

@@raytracer5726 yeah, she should have been charged as an accomplice, but unfortunately they didn't have evidence to prove one way or the other that she was involved unless her husband was willing to admit her involvement in everything.

I remember watching "The Mensa killer" documentary. Poor family and brave copper for going undercover and risking her life to get the killer. The sicko put poison in their coke bottles. Peggy unfortunately, didn't make it. So glad they caught him.

its lovely that this channel highlights the survivors and victims and never puts the main focus on the criminal. i love learning and paying mine to these peoples stories, its very important and this channel handles these topics with care

That lady had such a beautiful face my heart breaks for her and bless her lovely family that thankfully survived .

Vindictive people are extremely dangerous.

This man was a potential serial killer in the making, with that torture chamber he made he would likely had more victims if it wasn't for that brave agent

The psycho actually had built a new torture device. Detective Goreck saved all of his potential victims

Wow, this video is absolutely fascinating! I had already seen it before, but the story is so intriguing that it's worth watching again. The Dubberly family's ordeal is both heartbreaking and mysterious. It's amazing how they eventually caught the perpetrator, George Trepal, with the help of Special Agent Susan Goreck's undercover work. Justice was served, and it's a testament to the dedication of law enforcement. Thanks for sharing this incredible story! 👏💯

Makes one wonder what this, what i call the dregs of humanity did in his early life if after murdering people over a little loud music baring in mind of what he'd got in mind with the secret room in his new home is just unthinkable and terrifying

So, as far as I can tell... he's still alive. Peggy's been dead for over thirty years, yet he gets to be in his seventies. He could die in prison through natural means. This is what I hate about the death penalty, it really does feel like most people who are on death row don't actually see their execution date and die through natural means. Years after the sentencing, for that matter. (Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong about him still being alive. The point about the death penalty still stands.)

I thought he was executed..but hey, he is still behind bars, in a lot of this cases they let the criminals out and they go out and commit more crimes. He was building a torture chamber so even if he is still alive, the number of people who have been saved is unquantifiable

I always find it interesting when people assert that it’s rare to unalive people with poison. Is it really all that rare or are they just rarely caught? From what we know about women serials, I definitely think that our documented data doesn’t match reality

@sarahissersohn5495

8 ай бұрын

That’s a really good point! And also, should intentionally overdosing someone on an illicit substance count as poisoning? Because if so, I would suggest that maybe women aren’t the majority of poisoners, after all. A dear friend of mine was killed this way, and it wasn’t the first time her then-fiancée had shot his partner up with a deadly overdose including fentanyl; it had happened once before. That we know of. As far as I know he’s not been brought up on charges yet, for lack of evidence. She was a really cool person; I hope he doesn’t get the chance to do the same thing again, in the future.

Rare maybe some say if they compare to other crimes in procent but still not that rare in reality I think there is a dark number out there world wide depending the poison and symptoms and if the doctors are high alert to that idea and knowledge and are able to run test even and here sudden a whole family comes in sick with similar symptoms together that are life threatening. Maybe sometimes the obituary can spot a potential cause in some cases? So yes the data is only what has been found so far and with these big amount slipped through like cases of overdose with any substances and insulin cases. So rarely caught in that case i would assume compared to other murder crimes. And about the women serials as well as in open rings, and a couple doing it either if they're in on it with the actual same like minded stamina together but one is more in charge tho both are high alert in on it, some are in as ingroomed or gaslighted half knowing or non knowing even. When murders no matter gender combine and work together sometimes. I think serials even working together mainly each one during the act see themself as prior over the other in some way and raise their own part more than the partners ofc where it's baffled to hear when he is not even in a interigation room admits it's not like "they" kill just anyone..... so he ain't blaming someone else to get less sentence at that point but still admits right there he wasen't alone with it, probably she agreed with the kill of the dogs? And what else? What happen to his wife? is there any good info about them as couple or interviews of them both to see here on yt?

@raytracer5726

Ай бұрын

I agree. If a person is game ended with a gun or a knife, it's undoutably a mordor case. But with poisoning it often looks like a natural cause. Also this is something a female ki11er would do (since they often lack the strenght), and people don't suspect a woman. With one of my relatives, there was a case when a husband drank a shot from a vodka bottle in the fridge, which was filled with pure 100% vinegar. The man died. The wife apparently filled the bottle and placed it in the fridge, knowing the drinking habit of his husband. But it was impossible to prove malicious intent, so she was never trialed. There are plenty of way to poison someone without getting caught.

“I wouldn’t even HOLD Thallium in my hand!” That’s how DEADLY ☠️ it is!

This is quickly becoming my favorite KZread true crime channel. Its so professionally done! Thank u for the uploads!

Unseen deserves all the praise from its viewers. It's one my favorits true-crime channels cause of its integrity

That deputy/detective is now Sheriff Grady Judd of Polk Co. That man is the GOAT! ❤

The biggest crime this documentary presents is how a little over 30 years ago a WAITRESS could single-handedly support herself and raise her 3 children... these days a waitress can barely afford to feed herself forget about trying to raise a kid, let alone 3.

There’s a big difference between smart, and making smart decisions.

I would like to know more about the wife and how close was she to all of this concidering her profession. And was she apart of the secret rooms. Thank god that detective didnt go to the new house!

That music at the end gives me goosebumps every single time. I love watching long true crime videos but I’m definitely enjoying these shorter videos also. Thank you 🙏. And you can tell that guy is evil just by looking at him…. I’m glad her son found his way in life and made her proud.

But how did he have access to their Coke bottles? I didn't catch any details on that. Did he give them the Cokes? Then wouldn't that have helped incriminate him sooner?

Nobody locked their doors and he had already removed the dogs. He could have walked in taken the bottles, doctored them and then returned them with no-one noticing.

MENSA you say? Uh huh, ok. They should've given him life without parole so he'd be surrounded by people with less intelligence than himself for the rest of his days.

Thank God they were able to charge him before he murdered anybody else. I wonder if he has any prior victims aside from the dogs, like unsolved murders.

When you talked about the son carrying his mother to his sisters car, I almost teared up man. Unless my memory is wrong he was suffering from the same poison, he was probably in pain and unwell himself.

If only those were given out to people who actually deserve them.. it seems the true hero’s get either ignored or slandered every day. But I agree with you! It’s unfortunate that there aren’t more detectives that get as involved in their cases like she was. I know there are a lot of great ones throughout this country. That’s for sure. And a lot of them do become attached to their cases along with the families of the victims. I just wish it were more common.

Miss super detective susan is a hero in real life, she's put herself into a very dangerous position. But God is good and the truth is finally win over anything. All credit to susan she's deserve to be called a hero.
