Due to the women's nomadic lifestyles, which many people condemned, few in the town noticed they were gone besides their families and Lieutenant Bill Siegrist, who suspected that a serial killer was behind the disappearances. Local prostitutes described a strange man lurking around, leading Siegrist to Kendall Francois, an overweight, slovenly middle school hall monitor nicknamed Stinky. Police brought in Francois for a lie detector test, which he passed, and they were forced to release him. Area women continued to disappear. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In a shocking twist of fate, Francois was finally arrested when a woman he had raped managed to escape from his house and ran into a roadblock set up by Siegrist. She led the police back to Francois's home, and the hall monitor soon gave a full confession and cut a deal with the prosecution. By then, cops in Tyvek suits had already found eight bodies concealed in the attic and crawl space of Francois's house of horrors. To this day, one victim is still missing. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e From the author of numerous true crime books, including \u003ci\u003eLobster Boy\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eDeacon of Death\u003c\/i\u003e, this is the frightening story of a brutal murderer whose neighbors never suspected what was going on behind his front door. \u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFred Rosen, a former columnist for the Arts \u0026amp; Leisure section of the\u003ci\u003e New York Times\u003c\/i\u003e, is an award-winning author of true crime and history books, including\u003ci\u003e Gold!\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eDid They Really Do It?\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eLobster Boy. \u003c\/i\u003eHe can frequently be seen on the Investigation Discovery network's \u003ci\u003eEvil Kin\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eEvil Twins\u003c\/i\u003e TV series, where he is a regular on-air commentator.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 226\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.52 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 01, 2015\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47697701667075,"sku":"9781504023009","price":27.86,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0588\/9310\/7359\/files\/U0VPSWg1MnFjK21IL3ZEcDJid29UQT09.webp?v=1769809980","url":"https:\/\/annizon.com\/en-ie\/products\/body-dump-kendall-francois-the-poughkeepsie-serial-killer-paperback","provider":"annizon.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
