Kansas City Defender Doubles Down On Disputed Serial Killer Speculation

Again . . . Let's start with a quote from MSM when we talk about the reputation of this activist endeavor: 

The boy who cried wolf and the risks of getting it wrong

"The story about the alleged serial killer wasn't the only time The Kansas City Defender had to walk back a post. Earlier this year they shared the story of a Black man who claimed he'd been charged twice for his meal at an expensive restaurant, and wrongly arrested by police. It's one of those stories of racism that goes viral sometimes.

"The only problem — it didn't happen. The patron wasn't overcharged, video showed he was obviously intoxicated, and he had been arrested, but for driving while drunk.

"They ran out there with that story without getting all the information, and had people in an uproar," says Eric L. Wesson . . . Wesson says that sometimes the Defender can be a little trigger happy with a post, a little too ready to share what he calls clickbait."

That's harsh but fair . . . Even if TKC would never call a grown man a boy. 

And let's get even more real . . . We're guilty of opining about serial killers on this blog but our notes were always cheeky, snarky, sarcastic, in poor taste and in proximity to super models sporting EPIC cleavage. TKC has never been accused of taking our blogging too seriously or trying to pose as an activist or, even worse, a community leader . . . Ugh.

Nevertheless . . . 

NEW LOCAL KIDNAPPING STORY DEVELOPMENTS INSPIRE KC DEFENDER TO DOUBLE DOWN ON SERIAL KILLER SPECULATION RELATED SEX DUNGEON ALLEGATIONS!!!

Here's another theory the activist blog is floating after some poor lady's corpse was found near a local body of water . . .

"The alternate, equally disturbing possibility is that Haslett may not have been working alone. If Crosdale was not a direct victim of Haslett, then it suggests a grim reality of an accomplice or even a separate offender, collaborating with Haslett or operating independently, still at large in our community. The manner in which Crosdale’s remains were found mirrors the gruesome findings at Haslett’s home, implying a modus operandi that’s either shared or mimicked.

"In either scenario, the public faces a grim and imminent threat, one that was intentionally downplayed and misrepresented from the onset by police. The urgency for answers, justice, and safety has never been greater."

Cool story. 

But right now there's NO PROOF of ANY OF THAT.

Instead . . .  

We maintain our willingness to wait for police and prosecutors to offer more deets which is more effective/productive than throwing out garbage theories.

Moreover . . . 

It might be controversial but TKC maintains that no matter the outcome of this case: Sex dungeon serial killer risk to the community at-large is minimal. 

The stats back us up on this . . . Most Kansas City homicides are the result of conflict amongst people who know one another, domestic violence and drug/gang activity. 

Again we note . . . 

 Some stats claim there's a 1 in 645,000 chance of being murdered by a serial killer.

In fairness . . . We'll link to their screed for context and further edification on the best intentions of local activists . . .
