Case 6: The Werewolf Butcher
Manage episode 423989376 series 3576951
In 1994, nine-year-old Penny Davis disappeared near her rural home in Okanogan County, Washington. Six months later, her body was found in a shallow grave. The prime suspect was Jack Spillman, who had a criminal history and had dated Penny's mother. In 1995, Spillman brutally murdered Rita Huffman and her fourteen-year-old daughter Amanda in their home in Wenatchee, Washington. Evidence linked Spillman to both crime scenes, and while in prison, he revealed disturbing details about the murders to his cellmate. To avoid the death penalty, Spillman pleaded guilty and was sentenced to life in prison without parole.
