Psych Profile: The Truck Stop Killer

In this week’s episode, Professor Michael Drane presents one of America’s most notorious serial killers, the Truck Stop Killer. Also known as Robert Ben Rhoades, Ben acquired his fame after a police officer unsuspectingly checked on his semi-truck, parked haphazardly on the side of the road, only to discover that Robert was ‘working’ on his next victim.

Listen in as he explores the killer’s ideology, their motive, the horribly gruesome details surrounding his torture and disposal of their bodies, and even how Robert would psychologically torture the victims’ families by calling them and describing what he did to their loved ones. This is the ~epitome~ of stranger danger, folks.

Stay safe out there friends, and we hope you enjoy the show.
