A constant state of your welcome.

That's a good place to be. I've done so much, it's equal. Well, now that we've taken you to a fun, whimsical place, let's take you to Ja. Let's just hammer throw you right down onto the ground, a trunch bowl style. So let's do this.

Boom. Like a boom. Darryl Keith Rich is a real fucker. And we haven't even gotten to the worst of it. Yeah. And it's been really bad so far. So it's going to get worse. I just want to warn you, there's more rape.

There is more salt. There is more murder. And there is one murder that his last murder that will haunt me forever. Is it like one of those Ted Bundy things where like his last murder and there was one murder that his last murder that will haunt me forever. So one of those Ted Bundy things where like his last murder he was just out of fucking control. It kinda, yeah and it's just the brutality in that one is like true, in his victim I think is what really will get ya. So last we talk to you guys, you all.

Hello. Thank you for gathering again. You're welcome. She told you the story, you're welcome. We told you the story of the murder of Patricia and Pam Moore. We also told you about the murder of a net edwards, both horrific.

He beat both of them to death after raping them. And Pam Moore was 17 years old, and she was left in the IGO dump and just covered in trash. So terrible. Yeah. Now that was on August 4th, 1978. Four days later, he was ready to kill again. He doesn't have like any cooling off period like once or ever. He's rage. Like he's just rampaging through. He's like a Richard Ramirez kind of thing where he just goes like this no-end in sight and it's just we're gonna go, except he actually has like a victim profile, I guess.

Right. So August 8th, 1978, he drove 60 miles away. Because again, he doesn't like this imaginary heat on him that he feels is happening. Because if he lives in department one, he has this weird thing where he likes to tell people that the police are questioning him when they are not, they don't even know who he is. Right. Like, they have no idea who he exists.

Nothing. That's really weird. But he decided I can't keep doing these things in the same spots. I'm going to drive 60 miles away to Chico. So he there, he met a woman named Linda Diane Slavic. She was 26 years old, she was from Oraville, she was married to Paul Slavic, and they had a nine year old son. No. She worked for Butte County Wellfare Department and was described as loyal kind, fun to be around. She was beautiful. Her husband said she was amazing wife and mother,

like just all around a great person. And nine-year-old son. Like, yeah. She went to Madison Beer Garden, and yes, it's beer, or excuse me, bear. I said it backwards. My mind immediately says beer. And that's why I was like, yes, it's bear garden,

which I thought I kept reading it wrong. I had to look it up like three times. It's Madison bear garden with her friend Sarah. It's just like this local pub that like college students hung out at. It was like a cool place to go. So Sarah ended up leaving for it. And by the way, this was like Lynn is like night out.

Like she was like, I'm going out and Paul was like, have so much fun. Right. Like this was just she didn't do this often. She was just like, I'm going out and Paul was like, have so much fun. Right. Like this was just, she didn't do this often. She was just like, I'm gonna go out and have fun. So Sarah, her friend ended up leaving a bit with some two dudes that she knew, I guess. And she ended up coming back.

And when she came back, I think like 45 minutes later, Linda was gone. Okay. She immediately was like, that doesn't make sense. And patrons at the bar said they saw her with a man with dark hair and a dark beard. Who would later be identified as Darryl Rich? Her friend Sarah was like, this is strange, but maybe she like knew someone and got a ride back to Orville.

Like, that's all I could think of because she was like, she definitely didn't go home with anyone she's married with a child. So Darryl Rich later explained that Linda got in the car with him the way that he was able to get her in his car was to offer her some marijuana. Okay. And whatever it's the 70s. I mean, she was going on top of that. Yeah. And when they were in the car, he asked her to have sex with him and she said no. Right. And the way he said it was he asked her to make a love to him. Okay. And she was like, no thank you. Right. And he went ballistic because he can't handle rejection.

So he punched her in the head as hard as he could and drove away with her in the car. He drove her to where he lived in Cottonwood, which was an hour away. So drove her unconscious an hour away. So drove her unconscious an hour away. The last story he told was that because he did tell a couple of like little changes in his stories. The last one he told was that he took her to his house and he raped her. Oh my god. Now after that he said he put her back in the car and drove her naked to the Igo dump again and threw her on a pile of trash and raped her violently there. And after doing this, he dragged her to where Pam Moore's body was and forced her to look at it.

Oh my God. Now, Pam Moore had been in the dump for four days decomposing under trash. It had been dumped too, like. In the dump for four days decomposing under trash. It meant dumb too. In the dump for four days, and this was a time where they were having a record heat wave in the area with temps over 100 degrees for like days at a time. As soon as she saw this, she obviously freaked out,

started sobbing and begging him, please don't kill me. And he said this later himself. And when he said it, he mocked her voice. Are you fucking kidding me? Now, once he got what, you know, his pleasure out of showing her his latest victim, he pulled out a gun and shot her in the neck. Oh, she didn't die and screamed, grabbing her neck. And when he screamed, he leveled the gun in front of her face and shot her in the mouth as she screamed. Oh my god. She was dead immediately at severed her spinal cord.

He buried her in a little bit of trash right next to Pam. Like not right next to I think it was like a few feet away. Right. Now her husband woke up the next morning, Paul, and was immediately panicking because she would never not come home. No. And he immediately called her mother, her mother, excuse me, his mother-in-law, Twyla, and they informed police. And Sarah said she thought she had got a ride home, so she just never checked on that, which I was like, ugh, you know, we say it all the time, like, this, she didn't do anything wrong,

but it's like now. Just make sure you check. Right. That's such a time. Just make sure you check. Right. That's all. Right. What makes a person a murderer? Are they born to kill? Or are they made to kill? I'm Candace DeLong, and on my podcast,

And she was a very loving and devoted mother who would have never

left her child. She was a mom breaks my heart. Yeah. And he was like, she never would have left him. Like, she never would have left me, but she definitely never would have left him. Right. So now that Darleen has left Darryl, he is still seeing this Laurie girl.

By the way, he's free of Darleen and free to do what he wants, but he's still seeing this 15-year-old. I wonder, do you think she knew his age? Yeah, she did. Okay. And he starts to make weird comments to Laurie that are like off-handed, but around about women in general and about women around town. And how they dress, how they're like inviting trouble.

Oh yeah, you know how we're all just like walking around asking for it. Yeah, they're just asking for it. And he was like commenting on the recent like media reports of these rapes and he was like, well, like what do they expect? Oh my God, literally go fuck yourself. He was also telling two friends around this time that it was easy to rape a girl if you wanted to. Why is that information that you would tell anyone?

And he was annoyed because he said, women around there dressed in ways to intentionally tease and fuck with dudes. And he said, what you do is you just grab them by the hair and you make sure to throw them under the floorboard of your card or put their head in your lap so that they can't see where you're going when you bring them somewhere. And he said peel out from wherever you are because it will force the door to close by itself. Okay.

And he's telling friends this and they're like calling someone. Yeah, I don't, I don't, like, I don't need to do that. It doesn't need that information. You don't need to shout, like, I'm not planning to do that. So that's, that's nice for you. Thanks, but no thanks. But no one's calling anybody. Everybody's just like, that's weird.

That's weird, Darryl. Well, I can't say I've ever had a friend that offered up that information. No, no. Now, this is the last murder. And I want to just give a trigger warning. This involves a child's. And it is not, it, this like pretty bad.

I'm going to go over it as well as I can without being too graphic because it's just a reason to. August 13th, so not, that was August 8th, right. August 13th, he's with Laurie, and they're supposed to go out to like a movie on like a date and they get in a fight and You know he's pissed Laurie's like fuck it. Don't bring me out like you're dumb and so he dropped her off and when he drops her off He starts driving and he's angry and he notices a young girl walking down the road and he's looking to hurt someone at this point and

He knew this girl. He knew her somewhat. He worked with her mother. Oh my. This was 11-year-olds. A net-celix. 11-years-old. Yeah. A net-lin-celix. 11-years-old. I told you he was a monster. Yeah, fuck this guy. A net-lived with her mother Sharon and her mother's boyfriend David Tidwell She was entering the seventh grade that fall. She was a softball player She was a sweet and kind girl like everyone said she was just like She was gonna do things and she was gonna do things like absolutely

Shatter fucking life out of her exactly now that evening her mother was gone for the night to visit her other daughter. She had like an older daughter. Okay. She was visiting her. She was going to be coming home later, like I think like early morning. So she was going to be staying with David, her brother, excuse me, her mother's boyfriend. And his brothers, John and Buddy, were at the house as well. Okay.

So her uncle is essentially her step-uncle. Yeah. Around 9 p.m., and that asked David if she could walk to the market to go get milk and bread and a snack and some sodas and stuff. And he was reluctant at first because he was like, I don't know, it's late, that seems dangerous.

Again, it's the 70s, remember. But he allowed her to, because it wasn't far away. And he said, and he said as long as you promise to come right back, don't make any stops. So Annette made it to the store. She bought some items and she bought like, I think like two tubs of margarine or something for the house, like, and like,

literally trying to be helpful. Yeah, like little sodas, she got milk, she bought a couple of other things. She had them in bags. Yeah. And she was on her way back home. And Darryl Rich pulled up and asked if she needed a ride. No.

Now she recognized him because he worked with her mother. Right. And her technical, like her later stepfather way would have been her stepfather. Right. But he said later he didn't recognize her at first. He did. Yeah, he definitely did.

He knew who she was. Like he definitely did. Like he can literally go fuck himself. He's dead now. So he can at first, he did. Yeah, he definitely did. He definitely knew who she was. Like, he definitely did. Like, he can literally go fuck himself. He's dead now, so he can fuck himself wherever he is, but he definitely knew who she was. And so she again recognizes him, so she's like, okay. Yeah, sure, it's Darrell. I know who that is.

Right. And so she gets in. Now, she, when they get towards her house, she's like, that's it. And he just keeps driving. Oh my God, that makes me stomach her. Yeah, I used to have nightmares of that all the time. Oh yeah.

Oh yeah. It's, this is a nightmare. So he brings her to his home. And now he has told several stories about what happened there. But we definitely know happened was that he brutally raped her. Oh my God, and a loving, my God, an 11 year old. An 11 year old.

And he said, quote, I just couldn't stop myself. No, you couldn't. We were just speaking about it. You definitely go fuck yourself. I got stuck. I couldn't stop myself. No, you can't. Then you know what, you're fucking animal.

Right. You're fucking animal and you deserve what you get. Right. Because you are not a human being if you cannot stop yourself from raping someone. Right. You're an animal. No, absolutely. That's it.

So, after he raped her several times, very brutally, it is in that book just warning you, there's more graphic and description. He drove her to the John's Creek Bridge, which was 30 miles away. He made her get out of the car. She was naked wearing only underwear at this point. He said he didn't have a plan but he suddenly just picked her up and threw her over the side of the bridge. She fell 105 feet on two rocks below. Oh my god. What is even worse? She didn't die. She was alive when that happened and she hit the ground alive and she managed to crawl a little

ways and crawl up in the fetal position. Oh my god. How many bones did she break? Oh I will let you know. So that evening David Tidwell and his brothers had actually fallen asleep because they assumed she had come home. Right. Again, the 70s things were different. Her mother arrived early in the morning thinking she was asleep in her room. And I guess she, I think she got like a phone call the next morning from a friend of hers. So she went to wake her up. Okay. And that's when she discovered that she wasn't in bed. And they found that she hadn't been in bed. That morning a boater was driving below that bridge and noticed a small crumpled form on the side of the water.

It was a net and she was found curled up in only her underwear. Her autopsy later showed that her wounds bled so she was alive. Oh my gosh. Shasta County Deputy Coroner Leo Gattos performed the autopsy and said that she was definitely brutally raped.

There were large abrasions on her back buttocks, shoulders, and lower legs. There was a deep bite mark on her thigh that later matched to Darryl Ridge. Oh my God. And there was a three-inch laceration on the side of the skull above the ear that was so deep the skull was exposed. Oh my goodness. Her left leg had a compound fracture. Her right leg was broken. Her pelvis was broken and her right wrist was broken. One of her legs was so badly broken that it was almost attached from her body.

How did I can't imagine what she went through? She had numerous internal injuries as well, including a ruptured spleen in liver. There you go. Her cause of death was shock and hemorrhage due to multiple traumatic wounds, dropping from that height and the impact set the process of dying in motion. Who does that? Who throws somebody under their child's feet

to their death? A child after you brutally raped this child. And you work with her mother. It's beyond anything I can even, when I got to this one, I was like, just like a sweet little one. And also I was like, how did I not know about this? I know.

This is like, so unreal. Now I don't know if it's because the night stocker came a few years after this, like very shortly after this in California and really like dominated everything. So maybe this just got pushed into the background to like holy shit, the brutality of this. And 11 year old girl, I just, 11 years old.

Like I know we keep saying that, but I just don't even know what I'm supposed to say. No, you can't get past it. So August 20th, he was hanging out with a neighbor named Carl and Carl was a big dirt bike rider. Okay. And he asked Carl, he was hanging out with a neighbor named Carl. And Carl was a big dirt bike rider. Okay. And he asked Carl, he was like, do you want to go dirt bike riding with me like 20 miles away in the IGO dump? No, I don't really want to do that. So he's trying to get Carl to the dump where he just murdered and dumped two bodies. Right. Carl was like, nah, so Darrell himself,

according to Carl, said that he went himself. Karl was like, so he was like, okay, I'm gonna go by myself and he was like, okay. He's like, why are you gonna jump by yourself? Well, and he's like, that's fucking weird, but like, okay. And he said he came back a little while later, not too long after, and he was upset. And he told Karl that he found a dead body at the I go dump.

Oh my God. But he said he didn't wanna be the one to report up to police. So he brought Carl back to, Carl was like, what are you talking about? So he brought Carl with him to the dump and showed him the body of Linda Slavik. Oh my. Now according to court documents, quote, there were no tire marks where defendant claimed to have driven. And defendant could not have traveled the distance from his friend's house to the I go dump

and back in the time that he was gone. Right. But Carl was horrified rightly, and they got police out there, and Darryl was there the whole time while they're discovering the spotty that he is placed there. Do you think that at this point you wanted to get caught? Kind of. Like do you think he was bringing Carl there to be like, I did.

I think so. I wonder. Yeah. Why do you do that? The police, while they were there, they spotted Pam Moore's body not far away. And they also found teeth scattered everywhere and the victims' clothing's near the body.

The redding record search light newspaper, they reported on it and they said, quote, two bodies found in rural area. And it said, the first body was discovered by a motorcycleist riding on a dirt road near Gas Point Road, dump about 18 miles northwest of here. The cyclist, Darryl Rich, rode back to Contanwood and summoned a friend to contact a chair, stepies. Oh, something like that. Meanwhile, they had no idea that they were reporting on the actual murderer finding the body.

That's insane. Now, Linda Slavik was identified pretty quickly because she was wearing the glat her glasses, which were able to be identified as hers, and other items around her, and also her dental records. Her autopsy showed a gunshot wound to the front of the neck. The second shot had severed her spinal cord and killed her instantly. The cause of death was the killing shot, the open mouth shot.

The shot went through the mouth when it opened, struck the first and second cervical, and was deflected into the cranial vault. So she died of shock in hemorrhage. Thank God. Now Pam Moore's autopsy, which by the way, she was just called victim number two for a little while because she was not identified. She was, it showed that she had several broken and fractured teeth from a brutal beating

to the face and head. Her high-oad bone was broken as well. The right side of her skull was literally crushed in like an egg shell with a five-inch long wound caused by a rock. It was such a brutal beating that many bones in her face were broken. Oh, no. Her cause of death was shock and hemorrhage due to blunt force trauma. And the report said that there was unbelievable amount of force used to cause these kinds of wound. And they said they thought a rock was used and that the victim was lying on the ground when

beaten. There was also evidence that she had been strangled manually before being beaten to death. Oh. Yeah. So he tortured her. Yeah, I mean, absolutely. It's unreal. So August 22nd, Darrell was questioned at home by Detective Frank Brewer.

He was only questioned because he worked with Susan Celix for years, and that Celix's mom. He wasn't a person of interest. They were literally just getting information from people who knew Annette's mother. That's all they were doing. They were just trying to see if they knew. He was not a person of interest. Hi, I'm Lindsey Graham, the host of Wondries Podcast American Scandal.

We bring to life some of the biggest controversies in US history, presidential lies, environmental disasters, corporate fraud. In our newest series, we look at the Kids for Cash Scandal, a story about corruption inside America's system of juvenile justice. In Northeastern Pennsylvania, residents had begun noticing an alarming trend. Children were being sent away to jail in high numbers, and often for committing only minor offenses. The FBI began looking at two local judges, and when the full picture emerged, it made national

headlines. The judges were earning a fortune, carrying out a brazen criminal scheme, one that would shatter the lives of countless children and force a heated debate about punishment and America's criminal justice system. Follow American scandal wherever you get your podcasts. You can listen ad-free on the Amazon Music or Wonder App. He told them he had gone to her house a few times. He knew David Tidwell and his brothers, and that he had met a net a bunch of times. Oh, my God, what a fucking piece of shit. They asked him to come in for a polygraph, because during the conversation about where he

was the night of a net smirter. He was with Chris. He changed his, yeah, he was with Chris. He changed where he, like his story twice in the same conversation. So they were like, let's have you come in. Yeah. Now, they were concerned a little bit because also that type of bike, that street bike motorcycle that he used to go to the dump to discover the body was also not one that

you would use off road. So, like, there's no reason that he would bring that to a dump. They were starting to put this together. And they also talked to people around him and they said that he would bring that to a dump. And they were starting to put this together. And they also talked to people around him. And they said that he was kind of like a neat freak. And he kept that bike pristine. And he never would have taken it into a dump. Right. It just wouldn't have been a thing.

So they're already starting to be like, what's happened? He didn't take it into a dump. Exactly. And the fact that there was no tire tracks. And then he was like, I don't know what happened. Like that makes no fun of him. So August 23rd, the next day, he took the polygraph. The result suggested he was lying about not having any involvement in a net smirter or

the women, or excuse me, the women at the dump first. He was questioned casually by Brewer and wouldn't let anything out but asked to leave twice and was not allowed to leave Which did cause a little bit of an issue for them later when he because he wasn't under arrest Right and but he also like would be like I would like to leave and they were like no like you still talk to us And he was like okay, right? So it's not like they were like technically holding him against They definitely weren't but they easily used it later in trial to be like, he was, they didn't follow the Miranda rights and all that. Yeah.

So, he doesn't matter though, because he like killed four people, like, getting the lemon year old hindsight. Yeah, we don't really care about that. So, he was finally allowed to leave, but before he actually left, he said to Brewer, quote, I've got something to tell you, but not now. Like, and they were like, well, I've got something to tell you, but not now. Like a dude and they were like, well, what are you going to call? And he gave his card to him. And he was like, you need to call us within 24 hours.

And you need to give us an alibi for the night of the lit and that Celix is murder or we're arresting you. Right. And so he's like, okay, bye. Now, once again, as he leaves this polygraph, he comes across his friend, Gale, the one he was tryinggraph, he comes across his friend Gale, the one he was trying to get to give him an alibi for July 4th when he killed a net Edwards. And Gale was with his girlfriend, Shelley.

Now, he explained about, he like randomly was like, yeah, I just took a polygraph and I failed it. Like, Gale asked him point blank about the women at the IGO dump was like, it's a little weird dude like, did you murder them? Like did you do this? And he said, and he just was like, I did. And Gail was like, what?

And he was like, quote, I did it for $7,000 and the hell's angels paid me. A dude. And he said about Linda Slavic. She had snitched on some guys in their group about something to do with the drugs, and they had gotten put in jail, and they wanted her snuffed. So they said they would pay me $7,000 to do it. I did it kind of to be a hero. I met the girl at a bar in Chico, the Madison Bear Garden.

I'd been following her for a couple of days. I danced with her and asked her if she wanted to go outside and smoke a joint just to get her outside. After I got her outside, I took my car to Cottonwood. What the actual fuck? Like that didn't do. Literally none of that is true. No. He told everything, including, like I said, using a higher pitched voice to mimic her. Well, he said she laid on the ground and pleaded, please don't do it. Please don't kill me." And then he said he threw the gun that he used in the river. Now, Gail asked about the second body and his answer was she was in the wrong place at the wrong time. What the fuck? Now, Shelley, the girlfriend said he was not remorseful while talking about this.

Clearly not. And then said, quote, once you've he was not remorseful while talking about this. Like, they then said, quote, once you've killed, you can always kill again. It just doesn't bother me. And when he left, they called the police immediately. Obviously. They were like, okay, fun story. Bye now.

Darryl, always a kick when he comes. Bye. See you again later, friends. Here's your list over. Shushu, here's the doggy bag, bye. That's fun. And they were just like ring ring, hello, please. Imagine having that conversation with somebody like face to face.

And being like, okay, so now I have to get him out of my house. Right. So I can call the police. I would be terrified. I'd be like, okay, I want to end this now. So the same night, this is wild. This night is wild for him. So he just did that. He just admitted that to Gail and Shelley This night is wild for him. Oh, God.

So he just did that. He just admitted that to Gail and Shelley. Just went on his way. Here, I did it. That same night around 9 p.m., he has just left the polygraph test, by the way. When straight to Gail and Shelley admitted everything, now at 9 p.m., he ran into friends Tony Baldwin and Robert Savir at a sports bar. He literally just offered up like, that lie detector test, I failed it.

And now I need an alibi. And they're like, and they were like, dude, I don't care. Like, I don't want to hear about this. Like, I don't know. And he showed them, he also showed them a gun and said the cops have been following me and if they try to take me,

like, they're not gonna take me alive, I'll just shoot it out with them. And they're like, dude, we're just at a sports bar. We're just like trying to like, trying to run down after works. So Robert was like, yeah, I gotta go and started to leave. Right. And Darryl suddenly says, Hey, I'll level with you guys. I snuffed that girl out for $7,000. Was it, do you think it was like drunk? They said that he had a bottle with him this whole time. Okay in everybody said he didn't act drunk.

And I think that's because he was like, well versed, alcoholic. So I think he just could put on like a, not like shaking or like, acting sweaty or anything. Be drunk. But literally Robert says, I'm gonna go, buy. He's like, let me go.

Go sleep and he was like, I'll level with you, bro. I murdered someone. Like, Robert wasn't asking. Like Robert clearly didn't want to know. And then Darryl just rides off on his motorcycle. Just throws that out there. Rides off on his motorcycle. Well, Robert and Tony called the police as well.

So now the police have gotten calls from four different people. Like Gail, Shelley, Tony, and Robert. Everyone in the dress. Within like two hours, 10.30 PM, he went to Superior Molding where he was working at the time with Susan Celix. Oh my God. And he ran into two coworkers,

who he also told everything to. The fuck. Yep, their names were Kenneth Simmons and Randy. I couldn't find a last name for Randy. They also called the police. He just said, like, well, this is the last time I'll see you guys for a while. I guess I'll see what the inside of San Quentin looks like. I just flunked a polygraph test and they were like, okay, I feel like he was like excited about it.

Yeah, he was just like, let me tell everybody. I think he was like proud of himself. I think so too. He then told another coworker right after that guy named Edward Turner that he failed the polygraph. And Edward was like, well, you don't have to really worry about it if you really didn't do it. Like, you'll be able to prove that you didn't do it. And he goes, but I did do it.

Oh. He then repeated the whole like, I did it for $7,000. Like, where did that come from? He just made it up. And then he just left. So he just told three more people and then leaves. So tonight he's told 12 people. So this same, it's getting more wild.

He's not done. That was 10.30. Now that same night after this, he goes to see David Tidwell and net Celix's stepfather. No. Yes. And they know each other. Right. They've worked together. He's worked with's stepfather. No. Yes. And they know each other. Right. They've worked together.

He's worked with Susan for years. He said the same kind of shit to him that he like failed to polygraph test. Now he's just talking about the IGO dump, women. Right. At this point, which now we know our Pam Moore and Linda Slavik, but at the time, they were just like victims in the dump. And his brothers, I think Buddy and his other brother there were with him at the time, they were just like, no, but they knew. victims in the dump. And his brothers, I think, Buddy and his other brother there

were with him at the time. So he's talking to them and he's admitting to Buddy that he raped and killed the two girls at the I Go Down. Oh my God. So Buddy was like, what about a net? And was literally like, did you have something to do with a net? Does it murder?

And he was like, oh my God, no. I like absolutely like swore up and down, oh no, I would never do that. Oh, I know. Knowing that he did. Talking to her uncles and her stepfather. That's so fucked. Now the police are obviously putting this together now.

They've had witnesses who described Daryl exactly as being the guy who was seen with Linda at the Madison Bear Garden, the night she went missing, and the night she was literally dumped like trash. They also found out that he rented a motel room in Chico that night, and it was right near the bar. There was also towels that were matched to that motel that were underneath her, found underneath her. And they also spoke to Kelly M. who was the 15-year-old he raped and abducted while riding home from her cousin's house on her bike.

She positively identified Darryl Rich as the man who raped her. Oh my goodness. Now they arrested Darryl Rich obviously that night, that same exact night, they went on a rampage telling literally everything about it. They went to Orlock Bar where he was apparently sitting up the bar just like sad and depressed and he was in redding He was not taken to jail right away because the guard in the jail in redding said he heard in May say that when the person Responsible for a net sell X's murder came into their jail. They would take care of it right away. I would send him directly there So it's like why didn't you just send him there? Why would you buy relay that information?

So he was taken 55 miles away to another county. Now slowly, they began to put those rapes and assaults together with the murders. He told his lawyer, quote, and this is so spooky, because now we start to open up about the whole thing, but he's acting, but he's trying to pull the insane thing, but later we find out he's very sane. He told his lawyer, quote,

I woke up in the middle of the night and had a nightmare and felt that there was a girl standing next to my bed. It scared me so much I got up and turned on the lights in the house and slept on the couch. I should have stopped what I did a long time ago. It was no great detective work that caught me. I was gonna turn myself in anyway.

No, you weren't. It's like no, you're the worst. It was only his way of turning himself in. Oh, yeah, absolutely. It was like the coward's way. Right. It was only now at this point around August 24th that they were finally able to identify Pam more

as the second body in the Igo dump. They use the far northern California forensic dental team and use dental records to do it. They still hadn't fully connected him to a net yet, a net at Celix. Right, because it's too much for you. Probably because she's so young and like doesn't match his victim profile. Yeah. Now, they had an inkling that he could have been the guy, because they know that he's

capable, of course, but they just couldn't pin it on him yet. So during one or two searches of his home during this time, they found the items that Annette had bought at the market that night. Oh my goodness. So this was huge, but not huge because he could have just bought those items, technically, you know, like, within the grand scheme of things, you're like, yeah, he definitely did it. Of course. That's circumstantial to anybody else.

No. That wouldn't hold up in court. This is nuts. So they put Darrell in that live lineup and they had Kelly M come in. She was the one who identified him as the one who raped her. And they wanted to have this in person instead of a photo because they wanted to make sure they had the guy.

So they had her come in for a live photo, or not a photo lineup, a live lineup, sure. And they had the men in for a live photo line up, not a photo line up, a live line up. Sure. And they had the men in the line up say the words, because you know how that helped them say things sometimes. They had them all say, you have nice tits and keep your head down. They had them say that to a 15 year old girl who has been dealing with the trauma being raped.

Well, she's behind two way glass, like they just say it. But they're like making a relive them. Yeah, that's fun. And it's like, it is, it's behind two-way glass. Like, they just say it. But they're like making a relive that. That's fun. And it's like, it is what can be asked. Like, could they have just said like, the one thing? I think it's because she, in her report, said these are two things that I remember him saying to me.

Yeah. So those are the things that are going to trigger the memory. But she's here. And as soon as they got to derro rich and as soon as he said it, she screamed, oh my God, it's him. And literally it was like holy shit. It's him. It's like getting traumatized all over it.

So they were like, yeah, well, that's a positive identification. So once back in jail, he asked to speak to Lieutenant, I think his name is like off E-O-F-F-E-O-F. Y-O-F. Y-O-F. I don't know. I'll go with E-O-F. It's probably wrong and-F. Yoth? Yoth, I don't know. I'll go with E-O-F. It's probably wrong and someone will yell at me. I won't see it though.

So once back in jail, he has to speak. I don't look when people yell at me anymore, so. I'm like, I'm sorry. I can't laugh with them. I'm sorry. No, no, no, no. I won't make you laugh anymore. Don't. That was so funny, though. Well, no, no, no, no. I won't make you laugh anymore. Toad.

That was so funny, though. So once back in jail, he asked to speak to Lieutenant Yof, who was working the case. His lawyers were pissed, did not want him doing this. We're like, don't do that. Just shut up. Like, what are you doing? But he was like, no, he won't stop.

It's fine. He insisted on it. So once they were together, he said he had killed and lusted andette Celix. Oh, he. He said he didn't know what he was gonna, he didn't know he was gonna do it when he picked her up. He didn't remember throwing her off the bridge,

which is like you fucking coward. You fucking coward. Like just, you do remember it. Admit it, like just admit it fully, like what the fuck? So he said he didn't remember it. Then he said, quote, I made a list for the ones I've done. I haven't done ones that aren't on this list. Do you want to see the list? Yeah. So then they were like, yes, please. And he gave them the list in the formative victims. And that Selix Pamor, Linda Slavek,

and Annette Edwards were on that list. They all had small crosses drawn next to him. What? Yep. Then there were the many surviving victims of his brutal rapes and assaults, their names, with no crosses to indicate that they were alive. What the fuck? He was formally charged with four counts of murder and committing lute acts with someone under the age of 14. There were also 14 charges relating to rape and assault and kidnapping, so the death penalty was on the table for the net-celix one. He pled not guilty to all and later changed that to not guilty by reason of insanity. No, you're that. His lawyers used a lot of like the somewhat shady and like kind of loose tactics

that some of the cops use along the way while talking to him, but they didn't get far with it. No, but they definitely tried to. You're going to do what you have to do to catch someone like this. Of course. And it made the trial go on forever though. It dragged it out for a long time. That's frustrating.

And during. That's a families. Exactly. And during this time, they exhumed Annette Celix's body as well because they took castings of the bite mark. And they did the 10-bundi thing where they had cast done of his teeth and they matched it. And they were matched. That is so fucked.

And he would later say, I don't remember biting anyone, but I guess I might have. No, you do. You don't remember biting anyone, but I guess I might have. No, you do. You don't remember biting an 11 year old girl while you're raping her, you piece of absolute garbage. That's just disgusting. Like, I hate this dude. He did attempt to hang himself in jail, but he didn't succeed.

And left a note saying, mom, Darleen, Rich, Russell Schwartz, Ben Lambert, whoever, those are his lawyers. To God, mom, I love you. I hope that you'll be able to understand why I did this. Darleen, I love you more than anything in this world. You deserve someone a lot better than I. Mr. Schwartz is lawyer. Thanks. Ben, I didn't kill anyone that I hadn't said that I did.

I'm telling you the truth. Whoever, I hate myself, God, help me. That's so fucking theatrical, like I can't. It was presented in court as, like, look, he admitted it again. Right. He was gonna admit it even when he killed himself. To determine whether he was sane when he committed the crimes, he was obviously given a lot of psychological exams and therapy in prison.

Dr. Alfred French was the lead psychiatrist at one point and he gave Darryl a Rorschach test, which is the inkblot test, and he's seeing movies and stuff. And when he looked at this block of ink, this blotch of ink, he said, quote, it looks like somebody took a knife and cut into somebody's layers of skin. Yeah. Which I feel like is this two psychiatrist is like scribble, scribble, scribble. Yeah, like a meal. Oh, okay.

Right, right, right. Not a really good way to prove that you're okay, that you're like singing and you're right from wrong. So Dr. French concluded at the end of this whole thing and is end of his time with Darryl. He said, quote, in my opinion, Darryl Rich is simply an immature, impulsive individual, and that his chronological age really has not much to do with the matter, aside from his physical strength. He has an unsolicited, unsolicidized, aggressive reaction of childhood and or adolescence. I find no evidence of psychosis in my clinical interviews with Mr. Rich.

And then he said, this young man with his chaotic life history has moved to the extremes of rape and murder with a fairly straightforward logical progression. So he was like, he's sane as fuck. And he knows exactly what he's doing. He's just in immature and immature. He's just using his childhood trauma, that's all.

Now, when he took the stand later, this doctor, he said, Darrell had an explosive personality as well. And he said, quote, a person with an explosive personality is one that blows his top or loses his cool from time to time. They are cautious and often selfish, who typically would not form real close bonds with other people, which is right on the money. In April 1979, Dr. Malcolm Wilson was a neurologist who was ordered to give Darryl a brain scan,

because they wanted to see if that car accident or any of his other head and TVIs had given him a, you know, anything that would maybe logically say that he was impaired. Now the results were no damage that would cause him to be able to not tell the difference between the right and wrong. Now the trial didn't begin until two years after the murders. It was on September 5th, 1980. All of the survivors took the stand at one point and told their stories. At one point, Carl, the neighbor who Darrell had been like, hey buddy, wanna come to the dump with me. He said he suspected Darrell of these things a while ago and he said a lot of people did.

And he said when he initially told him, like I just found a body at the dump and he wanted him to come, he said he thought, he was pretty sure he was gonna murder him. Oh my God. Like he was like, I went there fully, like I need to be prepared. But he was also like, I went there fully. Like I need to be prepared. But he was also like, I didn't want to leave

some poor person at the dump. Like I felt like I had to go. So I could report it. But like I thought he was going to kill me. And he also pointed out that like everyone else had that there was simply no way he could have gone to the dump, found the bodies and come back in the amount of time he had.

It just wasn't possible. David's brother, John David Tidwell, his brother, John, took the stand at one point and was like furious, visibly, couldn't control his anger. Of course. And at one point, he looked at the jury and yelled, she was only 11 years old. Yeah, that just gave me chills.

And I know, I got like a full bod chill there. But I always hate when they're like old. Yeah, like, that just gave me chills. And like that, I know, Rhett, I got like a full bod, bod chill there, but I always like hate when they're like, when they get like, admonished for they get like yelled at for that. It's like, I know that's a human reaction. I know that's a human reaction. It's a court of law. I understand that.

I understand that emotions run high and that emotions can sway things. Like, f**k she's 11 years old. She was only 11 years old and he fucking admitted to it. Right. And not under duress. He did it himself. Right. Like many times, it just makes me so angry. Now, Dr. Bruce Caldor was the court appointed psychiatrist that also evaluated Darryl in prison and he took the stand and

said in no uncertain terms that he said he knows what he did. He knows why he did them. He was seen and he said what Darrell had told him about Pam more He said I asked her if she wanted to make love she pushed my hand away I got very mad and pulled her down in the car Then I drove her over the gas point road area and beat her to death with a rock Like that's like God just like so like just and it's literally I asked her to make love She said no and pushed my hand away So I got pissed I raped her and I fucking beat her to death It's like what the fuck is wrong with you? Yeah He also said that he beat her so savagely that he bent his own ring on his finger

Literally don't give a fuck about your ring on your finger about a net edwards He told dr. Caldor he said he got pissed when she refused his offer for a ride twice So he said I grabbed her and beat her to death But it was like someone had control over what I was doing. Well, here's the thing You got mad that she wouldn't take her ride with you But what were you intending to do in the first place? Exactly. You weren't intending to just ride her somewhere. You were no rape or no matter what So fuck right off. Like don't pretend like you got mad

because of like something that they did. Because somebody did, a couple of people did get in the car with you. And you raped and murdered them. Right. So like fuck off. I got mad, like okay. No, about Linda Slavek, he said they did dance

and talk a bit at the bar. And patrons in the bar did say that they saw her dance with him once. Yeah. And talk with him at like a table, whatever. And then she went to his car to smoke some weed, and he said, quote, I asked her there if she wanted to make love. He is so disgusting.

He's literally gross. He's so disgusting, because also it's like even if you're not Darryl Rich, if someone gets you in a car and says, do you want to make love? I don't know who you're talking about. Your only reaction is to gonna vomit all over them or be like, get the fuck away from me. Because they're like, no, I don't know you. I don't know who the fuck are I don't know who you are. Your only reaction is to gonna vomit all over them or be like, get the fuck away from me. Because they're like, no, I don't know you. I don't know who the fuck are you. Like, are you kidding me?

So he said she said no. So I hit her in the mouth and gave her a bloody lip. I drove her to my home first and then out to where that other girl's body was. I showed her the body and then I shot her to death. Oh my God, just like so callous. And then he said she had no choice but to go with me after I hit her in the face.

I can't. And then he tries to pull this whole like, I know what I was doing. I don't know what to happen. I wasn't there. And it's like, you knew exactly what you were doing. Right. You can recount this to the T.

Exactly. Now about an ex-selects, he said, I took her to my home, but I can't remember what I did there. I took her to that bridge and threw her off. It was like I was asleep. I even knew I didn't kill her right away. I knew what I was doing was wrong and I wanted to stop it. Are you dead?

Because if you wanted to stop it, then you would have. Now Annette's, I imagine it's because she's 11 that he never would give what he actually did. I mean, they could tell from the autopsy. But that one he was like, Hosh-hosh about, and I think it was because she was 11 and he knew that. He probably knew what he was gonna get in jail.

He knew, or is he in prison? Now, the doctor described him as having, quote, severe masculine insecurity and said that he was a selfish childlike man. So an insult. Which I'm like, hell yeah, he is. He a selfish childlike man. So an insult. Which I'm like, hell yeah, he is. He's a fucking insult. He is an insult.

Like 100% one of the original. So they actually used a one point amital, which is sodium amital. And it's also known as truth serum. One of the truth serums. Now truth serum is like a very controversial, like they're not like, you know what I mean, but they did it. And especially back then, they were doing it. So it was done by Dr. David Axelrad of Sacramento, and they interviewed him while he was under

the influence of this. And he said, I didn't know what to say about all this. I knew that if I did, someone would say, why did you do it? So I reported it to the Sheriff's Department. I wondered if I didn't report it, talking about the murders. Would they go on and on, and I didn't want to go on? So that's what he was saying about doing all this

and why he had reported the body. I do kind of believe that. And he said, quote, I wanted to have someone help me stop what was happening. I knew that people couldn't go on dying. I couldn't go on hurting people. And he also did add that he had raped a net edwards while she was happening. I knew that people couldn't go on dying. I couldn't go on hurting people. And he also did add that he had raped a net Edwards while she was dying. He admitted that under truth, Serum. Just as we went down there, he went where? He raped her while she was dying. Yeah. So he went down there after he threw her off the deep bridge. Oh no, a net Edwards.

Oh, I'm sorry. There are two nets so it's confusing. A net her off the deep bridge. Oh no, a net Edwards. Oh, I'm sorry. Sorry. There are two Annettes, so it's confusing. Annette Edwards is the older one. Okay. So just as an aside, truth serum, like I said is controversial, especially Sodom Amatal, it's a barbiturate, like a downer. Yeah.

And apparently it was primarily used at first to help soldiers during World War II. And it was just like a method of combating the anxiety that comes with what they used to call shell shock, this PTSD. The drug is very addictive and lethal if used in too high of dosage. And when they used it for treating soldiers,

it would essentially slow their heart rates down and with only a small dose. And it would make them more relaxed, more less anxious. And then they would talk about their feelings or experiences more easily. So it does get people talking because you feel more relaxed and more like. Also they found out though later that some people that this was used on actually developed false memories after the whole thing was over. I'm not saying that happened here.

It's just that doesn't. That doesn't. It can't happen. So December 4th, and I mean we don't need the truth serum, we know. Well, I told the truth. It really did. I'm saying that we needed. December 4th, the Darryl was given permission to get married in prison.

Why do they do that? Her name was LaRetta Summers. She was 24 in a hair stylist and they met during the trial. And she's a fucking monster too. Yeah, fuck her. Like a dude rapes and a murders, throws an 11-year-old girl off a bridge. And as a man, how many times? And as a man, like a million times, you want to marry him.

Like, you're that quality in you? Honestly, she should be arrested as well. Yeah, like a woman. Because I question who she is. If you know that a man has literally raped and murdered a child, especially, you should not be allowed near children ever again. Nope.

Oh, I'd maybe so angry. December 5th, they had closing arguments and the prosecution said, Darryl Rich is a predator who systematically hunted for victims. He was a marauder who went out and sought people. He pre-planned everything and went out and hunted these women and girls. Darryl Rich is an egocentric, self-centered individual who

never grew up. He prays on others and always gets things his own way. He has absolutely no care for others' people's feelings, and I think that has been born out again and again at trial. The defense psychologist and psychiatrist patronized him and believed everything we teetold them. He held up a picture of a net cell ex after this, and I think she was in like a softball uniform, like a really cute picture of her. And he said, quote, when I see this picture, I almost want a ball. I have a daughter who is one year older than that and I look at this smile and in my mind,

that is life itself. This girl had a right to go to high school, to see your prom, to have children, raise children and even have grandchildren and live a full life. I love when they hit like that because you're like, fuck yeah. The defense concentrated basically, all they had to say was like,

he has personality disorders. And they were like, yeah, excuse to murder someone. Doesn't mean he's insane, so good try. And they also were like, well, you know, personality disorders can make you do bad things. And it's like rape and murder people. Yeah, child, no, okay.

So the jury was like, no. So the jury said they believed they came back, they said they believed she was sane at the time of the murders and the assaults and they found Darrow guilty of a lot of things for the survivors, including assault with great bodily injury, forced oral copulation, kidnapping, forcible rape, rape with the threat

of great and immediate bodily harm and forcible sawdemy. Wow. He was also found guilty for the dead victims. He was found guilty of first degree murder for a net edwards, guilty of second degree murder for Pam Moore, guilty of first degree murder for Linda Slavik and guilty for a net Celix for first degree murder. And there was a special circumstance on her murder, which was

willful, deliberate, and premeditated and committed during the commission of a Lude act upon a child under the age of 14. The last conviction was the death penalty one. It brought death penalty onto the table. Now apparently Loretta Summers, his like wife to be there, was in the courtroom where the victims' families are by the way. Like being disrespectful. And when this was read out she wrote, oh my god, they did it. Of course they did. I'm not kidding me.

I would have murdered her in that courtroom. If I was Susan, like a Nat's mother. Yeah, like what? If I was any of these people's family members. Yeah. That's unreal. Like are you kidding me, Loretta? She has been be with her.

Get it together. We're going with her, clearly. Get it together. Oh, so go fuck yourself, Loretta. The judge said, quote, to even the most hardened eye, the crimes were almost unimaginably brutal. Savage attacks, undefenseless young women, all sexually ravaged.

The jury first was deadlocked on a decision of whether to impose the death penalty or not, but they reconvened and they voted to send him to death for the murders of Annette Celix and Linda Slavek, and they voted for life in prison without the possibility of parole for the murders of Annette Edwards and Pam Moore. He was sent to San Quentin prison, so he was correct. And of course he had appeals that were all denied. And in March 2000, he had his last clemency hearing. Linda Slavik's father Wally was there. He said, quote, to me, the only person that can give forgiveness is the primary party or God. And Linda's not here to give forgiveness. Boom. Sharon Annette Celix's mother and her stepfather David and Sharon sister Linda were there. So Annette's aunt.

Burton, Pam Moore's brother was there. He was only seven when she was killed. And several of the rape survivors were there. Burton's Pam Moore's brother said, quote, the punishment is too far too late and far too lenient. I think they should take him to that dump and use a rock. far too late and far too lenient. I think they should take him to that dump and use a rock. I agree. I can't blame him. Linda and Nets, and Nets aunt, sorry, spoke because Susan literally couldn't.

She was like, I still can't talk about this. And she said, this broke my heart. She said, quote, my sister sees her baby being abducted, sodomized, raped, and tortured until she was thrown from a bridge while still alive. We've been unjustly sentenced to 22 years of hell. Please, please put all of us out of our much prolonged misery. Yeah. David Tidwell, her stepfather, said, quote, we're wasting time. Just kill him. He better pray this not a life after death. If there is, he better hide. I love it. I can't imagine the anger they have.

I can't imagine. One of the survivors said that she still hadn't been able to fully reconcile what had happened to her and she said it was affecting her marriage now. And she said, quote, we are never alone. Darryl Rich is always there between us. Oh my God.

That's terrible. My whole body just like, whoa. It's because it must be. There's no intimate moment I've heard. Like what's been taken from you? And if, and, and I get it, that he's still around. So you just feel like he's there. His execution after that last clemency hearing

was set to go forward. They were good. Didn't want to hear anything about him. But then they found out his plans for after death. What? He wanted to be buried next to his mother, a grave that would be a hundred feet away from the grave of a net cell. Are you kidding me?

So luckily, after a lot of uproar, and people literally trying to get legislation put into place at this time, preventing murders from being buried next to their victims, uh-huh. Darryl said that he would be buried in a different cemetery, and his mother was assumed and moved to that location as well. I feel like she wouldn't even want to be next to him anyway. No, probably not.

March 14th, 2000, execution day. Good. He was put to death by lethal injection. He was 45 years old, and the last thing he said was peace. Are you fucking kidding me? Mm-hmm. He was 45 years old. And the last thing he said was peace. Are you fucking kidding me? He said peace. He said peace.

After just string how many people's worlds? He said peace. Yep. Awesome. Literally, I hope he, he is one of the worst. One of the worst. To my day, peace,

after you did what you did to how many like little girls and women to exit the world of 16 year olds 14 year olds 17 year olds women and 11 year olds mothers wives daughters friends sisters co-workers like fuck what the fuck like Darryl Rich is fucking I hope is if there's an afterlife I hope he's having a I hope he's having a time Yeah, so yeah, that is the story of Darryl Creek Keith Rich. I don't know how it I didn't know all about that But damn I don't know either now you guys have to know it too. So thank you for that but damn, I don't know either. Now you guys have to know it too.

So thank you for that. But I've, you know, it's especially like all of them, it's just, especially those four murder victims, it's just like, they were literally just walking. Like just like, just finding their own business. No, not that like anybody puts themselves in a position to have that happen, but it's like they're just walking home.

No, right. You know, and to know like David Tidwell, like, was reluctant to let her go to the market. I know that is horrible. I feel awful like that. I imagine nobody should have to live with that. No. But wow, that was a doozy and a half.

Yeah, so you're welcome everybody. Well, now it's time for me to go take some nightquill. Yeah, and I think we're gonna throw you like a spooky road's next, or something just to like ease this a little bit. So my spooky road is a bummer, just so...
