murder? or accidentally committing a? and he told my mom about dexter. you see the show dexter, this is all modeled after dexter. when you take a step back, you see this is a real man who s been murdered. it was darker than anyone knew. holy mackerel! everyone is on the edge of their seat. an underground parking garage. you re watching a violent attack, caught on tape. who is this? what is happening? or did it happen at all? movies, like that one. are by design deceptive. they blur words. but have you noticed, maybe it s all the technical doodads. the digital cameras. the reality pristine editing. some stories have claimed to be true. are not. anybody can manipulate reality, but sometimes what they say is true, isn t. sometimes fiction turns out to be fact. and then there are stories, just a few, in which fact and fiction hughes. and that s where we re going tonight. a twilight zone world. an illusion. and deception. and deceit. follow the howling wind, no
it s all information that no ne had ever heard about before. at the trial, it got more bizarre. as the prosecution unveiled for the first time, skconfessions. sitting in that courtroom became a journey deep into the wounded-ness of a mind of darkness. horrid details were written down. no detail was not told within this document. it s written like, it sounds just like it s fiction, like a script. but when you take a step back, you realize this is a real person that he is talking about. this is a real man who has been murdered. but was johnny altinger murdered? well twitchell certainly admitted he dumped johnny s remains down the storm train. he never said that he murdered him. never even admitted that he was the author of skconfessions. so detectives knew that they would need more than the document to get a conviction. so they quietly built a case on
Movie director in edmonton, canada. loved. loved. the tv show dexter. with so taken with the whole idea of it that he posted this online ad, and attempts to sell the script for his house of cards short film. as if it were an original dexter episode. and in fact, the story on twitchell s computer, the one called skconfessions is a lot like the episode of the tv show of the avenging psychopath. and now here in twitchell s rented garage, police saw would look for all of the world like a kill room. there was plastic sheeting, an autopsy kit. all matching careful descriptions of skconfessions. what s the killer couldn t learn from dexter though, was how to dispose of the body. the tv dexter lives in miami, dumps his victims in the atlantic. but edmonton, out in the middle of thousands of square miles of farmland and oil fields is many
Hundreds of miles from the nearest ocean. and that seems to have stymied the sk killer. who apparently had no idea how to remove his victims remains. perhaps it never occurred to him to put the body in a trunk of a car, drive it out past the city limits, and bury it behind some old abandoned barn. so according to skconfessions, he tried burning them. but that did not work. so he thought about throwing them in the saskatchewan river that runs through town. but was afraid someone would see him. so he finally decided to toss them down one of edmonton s thousands of storm drains. the diary got to a point where he talked about dropping the body in the sewer. and then ended. by this time, clark certainly believed the diary was true. all of it. but without a body, in a case as bizarre as this one. how could any jury be sure that the important parts of this
Skconfessions were just some fantasy from the dark side? so clark confronted twitchell with the evidence against him. hoping he could confess. today i make the incensing comment, it reminds me of dexter too. kill room, clean sweep. you re referring to your garage is the kill room. the table is a kill table. it s there where you carved him up. i m gonna show you. but all the blood seeps right underneath. the guy just pulls all that out, it does dna matching. you know, when i say the show dexter. you see in that show dexter, this is all modeled after dexter. you know that. eerily, you kind of look like the guy. i look at that picture, i saw the one on your website and you even look the same. the big thing there though is, he kills people that need killing. the guys who get off in court, on technicalities. he kills people that need killing.
