3rd Body Found on South Carolinian Farm:


summary:

Police have discovered two bodies on the farm owned by real estate agent, Todd Kohlhepp. He has been accused of kidnapping and murder. The bodies found on Kohlhepp's property, authorities state, could not be determined male or female. Last week, investigators found the body of 32 year old Charles Carver, who is the boyfriend of Kala Brown, who was recently rescued from a metal shipping container. Brown was found with chains around her body and neck, while packaged in a metal box on Kohhepp's property. The weird thing about this case with Todd Kohlhepp is that he admitted to the murder of Carver and the kidnapping of Brown. He even admitted to a shooting from 13 years ago that took place at a motorcycle shop in Chesnee. Brown told reporters that Kehlhepp had killed her boyfriend, Carver, right in front of her. Also, Kehlhepp had also spent 15 years previous to these findings for more murders. He showed up to court without an attourney, almost as if he wanted to be sent to jail again. In the end, he was charged with four counts of murder in connection to the 2003 killings. His fate is still being decided.


sythesis/analysis:

I think it's horrible that somebody would be driven to do something like Kehlhepp did. I can't help thinking it's weird that he admitted to the murders not only from last week, but thirteen years ago. I think that either he really was tired of his evil ways and wanted to be caught (again), or maybe he is covering up the crimes for somebody else. Either way, he is a danger to society and I hope that he is given life in prison or the death penalty. It said in the article that he had previously had prison time for the same thing, and I think that they should have never let him out.

  1. I think that this is a grotesque, and in a way, curious situation. How can this man have admitted to so many murders, and also have been to jail before, and still be able to do more harm? One would think we have a better justice system than that. I also agree with your analysis that he could be covering up for something even bigger. This is a very odd and terrible situation.

  2. I think it is indeed terrible. I want to understand why he wouldn't just turn himself in instead of making a scene. He's obviously trying to make a point out of something.

  3. Kiri Luckey: This is very sad. People are so crazy these days that you have to be very careful around others and can hardly trust anybody.

  5. I strongly disagree with the death penalty, for it has caused much Controvercy considering innocent people could end up dying for the lacking judgement.

  6. This is insane that someone would do such a thing. He definitely needs to be persecuted for what he did. Suicide is a thing that we all need to be on the lookout for and is suspected to kill millions of people. We all need to stay healthy and to kill millions of people. We all need to stay healthy happy.
