I've been meaning to post about this but was slightly embarrassed about it.
There has been a serial killer in the Houma, LA area who has been killing men, some from Houma, some from New Orleans. The news reported that these men were found without shoes on, but mostly clothed otherwise. They supect that the killer has been performing some weird religious foot ritual on them before killing them.
So a few weeks ago, I was driving down the Earhart Expressway and there's a whole bunch of shoes scattered along the roadway for at least a mile or two. I remember thinking it was strange and could not believe how many shoes somebody had thrown out the window. When I saw the article about the victims not having shoes on, I thought maybe the killer could have ditched the shoes along the road and that I should tell somebody JUST IN CASE.
So I call Crimestoppers and it is a Saturday about 2 weeks ago. A lady answers and I tell her that I heard the victims of the serial killer didn't have shoes on and that I thought I should tell someone about the shoes all over the road. She seemed totally disinterested and told me that she was on the "weekend crew" and that I should call back on Monday. Needless to say, I did not call back on Monday, and the shoes were pretty much gone by a few days later anyway. How hard would it have been for that lazy bitch to at least make a note or something?? I mean WHAT IF the shoes really were those of the victims? Am I right or am I completely retarded for calling them in the first place?
