Is it just me, or have we been seeing a lot of deaths around here lately. I once heard July was the deadliest month of the year in california. Be safe everyone, were all in this together.
This place has more people who disappear and more bodies that turn up than anywhere I’ve every been or heard of. It’s plain creepy.
Oh No!! Lets remember this is somones child..
Problem when bad people try to sink bodies in that river, bodies end up getting stuck in the rocks cause that area used to be clearcut and the shit is all shallow.
Folks don’t quite get when they murk someone they gotta dump the body in the woods outside King Peak and cover the body with red devil and the burial site with grass seeds.
Heard this from a little birdie, mind you.
