Hannah Graham Suspect Tied To Ten Murders And Rapes

Hannah Graham's mother released a statement yesterday begging for closure from her suspected killer, Jesse Matthew. Jesse Matthew has remained silent and the family wants to know anything they can about their daughter. meanwhile, The National Enquirer says in an article this week that Matthew is now being investigated for as many as ten different murders and rapes. I can't believe the guy was never caught prior to this. The only case directly linked back to Matthew right now is a murder in 2009 of Morgan Harrington, who was 20 at the time of her murder. Police in areas close to Charlottesville have been digging through their unsolved cases related to women in their early 20's and so far there are eight more which including Hannah and Morgan, would bring the total to ten. Maybe the guy will confess to them all and show police where the bodies are buried to bring closure to the respective families.

    Yep....everyone who j"jumped to conclusions" about this guy should really have been ashamed. Despite his fleeing the state/hiding, not cooperating with authorities/ and his rap sheet....I mean, he was a nurses asst. afterall.

    There is nothing to say about an animal like this. May he suffer 100 fold for the pain he has caused. But likely he'll get off with a moderate sentence and the opportunity to "rehabilitate" his life, despite the countless ones he has most likely taken, and the walking wounded ( family) who have to go on.

    I'm never sure if parental appeals help or if they simply feed the beast.

    I can see him working a deal where he works with behavioral experts who pick his brain till he dies. Not saying that's a great idea, but they'd hoped for information from Jeffrey Dahmer and didn't get it.
    I can't see him getting any kind of reduced sentence at all, under any circumstance. Maybe not gen pop, but wherever it is will be forever, I think.

    I reached the conclusion that he found his victims after enrolling in one college after another with the motive of looking for a particular victim. I dont know if hannah was a nursing major and if thats how they met but he stalked her until he had the chance to finally pounce on her. If he hadnt got caught he would have moved on to the next college looking for another victim.

    i bring up the cab driver thing because i was raped by a yellow cab driver 30 years ago. they are independent contractors. the company will bear NO responsibility for it if he committed a crime while operating a cab. it's a great way for a sexual predator to find victims.
    just know this does happen and think twice before taking a cab by yourself.

      In Vegas almost all cab drivers are pimps and run an escorting service from their cabs picking up guys from the airport always asking how the can find girls. . I worked for a local casino years ago and the guys that came in to play pai gow were all cab drivers/ pimps and their girls were upstairs in the hotel rooms conducting business and would come down after and give them their money..

    Surprised it took so long? Not saying this is the reason, but it definitely doesn't help:

    End the backlog.
    There are 12,000 back logged rape test kits in Mephis, TN. Yes, that is twelve thousand potential rape victims waiting for their DNA evidence to even be processed. Imagine if one of those was your daughter or son, sister or brother, parent or friend.

    No I didn't leave, I just don't care to comment anymore usually. I'm going to attempt to be respectful with this one comment though.

    Tricia S, he's been convicted of nothing... and anyone being looked at for one rape/murder will be looked at for others that are unsolved; it’s normal procedures. Do you think, just maybe, a tabloid like the National Enquirer is making a normal procedures look like a story to sell magazines? They're usually pretty legit. Yes, he’s probably no good… this mob mentality is dangerous though. You’re reading the news, you don’t know anything about what’s really happening.

    Also, most folk’s comments on the Walmart debacle with Tracy Morgan were rather unintelligent as well, but I wasn’t in the mood. If he wasn’t wearing a seat belt he is DEFINITELY partially at fault. Walmart is largely at fault but not 100%. Ignore your emotional response, and focus on reason instead.

    Don’t worry, I still cannot stand almost all of you… but I just had to say something. I'll read your attacks on me, because they make me smile, but I will not respond, so go nuts.

    Brenda L, I was misunderstood... I had absolutely no intention of discussing race last time. I wasn't implying that people thought he was guilty because he is black, I was insinuating that people shouldn't think they're experts on a subject because they watch the Daily Show or Fox News, or CNN... or any of them. I would have made the exact same post on a Casey Anthony story. So I was scratching my head when people thought I was talking about race. I'm fucking Irish/German for crying outloud.

    It's always ironic to me how much "we" seem to not trust the media, but then we're ready to string someone up when they say so.

    I'm the last person to play, the overplayed (though correct to an extent) race card. It was a misunderstanding.

    But how can we blame this on white racism/privilege like certain people were trying to do in the previous comments? Where are the apologists that said he wasn't really a murdering rapist, but a victim of evil white racist cops? I'd love to hear how he's still an innocent victim, so come on and spin it! You know who you are.

    Nancer, that's terrible. Once again I will say that women need to get, and carry, guns. The world is not a safe place and it's full of evil people.

  32. Bluezz 9:10 AM

    @Sherry Hey Darlin'! I hear what you're saying about not pronouncing Matthews guilty before he's been formally charged in the other cases.

    Unfortunately with Matthews being linked to the Harrington case, he's now linked to the 2005 abduction & brutual rape from where I was living at the time.

    Fortunately, that victim lived & provided a sketch PLUS pressed charges which has been a huge help in the unraveling of potential cold cases. The victim's name has not been released, so I'm not going to speculate further except to say there is a definite pattern developing.

    I remember being scared for the first time in 15 years because it was not uncommon to be walking where the abduction took place.

    So this makes 3 cases connected via DNA to Matthews. While it doesn't make it right, it's hard not to make the leap.

    He is 100% a person of interest and should be off the street until he's tried. But that's that... and the rest of us should shut up and wait for the result. Don't condemn him.

    My point was that people are emotional. Emotions don't mix with logic/reason/facts. The media, which none of us seem to trust, can hook us (well not me) with emotions by elaborating on a crime; they'll make your cries for justice so anger filled that you'll convict whoever they give you. For example, on 9/11, we were given Iraq. Try to ignore emotion when watching the news, look at the story, look for a motive, and ask a lot of questions.

    Well to play Devil's Advocate as well, if your brother or uncle or grandson was Timothy McVeigh who blew up the building in Oklahoma and you had absolutely nothing to do with it, if I recall from reading the book, should we be arresting you and harassing you and sending you to Gitmo?

    I have not seen nor heard of any proof that the members of his family living in the US had anything to do with it. Au contraire they are living in the US because they preferred the lifestyle.

    From the bios I've read, Osama was the odd duck in the family, he was the pious one, reading his Koran and always complaining that the siblings were not being good Muslims etc etc ie he was a big drag whereas the rest of the family loved travelling and Western stuff. After he got into trouble was supposedly exiled from his immediate family.

    Now I would not be surprised that some of his 51 brothers and sisters, and No. #1 wife of Old Man Bin Laden raised Osama, may have been involved or were in touch or knew stuff but I don't think they all were and I've never heard of any of them being implicated. Bin Laden was grooming his own sons though at the time of 9-11. I wonder if they are all dead now.

    I lived in Charlottesville in the Hessian Hills Apartment across from where Matthew lived. I always felt extremely safe during my time in Charlottesville. However, it is always going to be problematic, regarding girl students' safety when this is the first time they are away from home with no supervision and alcohol and drugs are around. That being said, this story just chills me to the bone. I feel so sorry for the families of these girls.

    astra, I thought you were lumping me in the category of people defending him... which I sorta am to an extent, not because I'd want him to take one of my sisters out on a date, but because this is America, and this is how we do it. Lawyers aren't evil; they're part of the best system we've got (I'm not a lawyer). I get annoyed when people hate on the lawyers defending horrible people...

    Shit, I'll get the rope if he's convicted, I'm just saying we're not qualified to convict him with what we read on CNN. I also wanted to remind everyone that the media is a business.

    On an unrelated note, I should probably clarify I'm not a 9/11 truther, I think we were attacked by terrorists, and I think our emotions were then taken advantage of by opportunists. I could be very wrong, I'm very open minded on this subject. I just know I cannot justify why we went to Iraq 12 years ago. I know at the time I was all for it, which caused me to reflect on my youth which I've chalked up to emotion. The only politician who ever had a clue was Ron Paul, by the way... too bad we weren't ready for him.

    Jordan, nope. I totally agree with what you're saying and I voted for Ron Paul twice. Too bad this country will likely never be ready for someone like him, which is why it will continue to spiral down until it eventually collapses.

    Everyone deserves due process, but why would we think that anyone would care about it when the Bill of Rights is being destroyed and nobody cares?

    Don't get me started on these endless wars. The whole ISIS thing is yet another BS justification to get us meddling in Syria. I say let them sort themselves out, and don't allow any more immigration from anywhere for at least 30 years so we don't have to worry about "terrorist" attacks. Why do we need more people anyways, to stress our already sub-par system and create more conflict, pollution and misery? No thanks, but that's probably the logical way to look at it, most would rather pack this country full and then be shocked that we can't care for them all, because to not do it makes you racist.

    It's all emotional manipulation like you said, and I don't watch TV or really read anything mainstream on the internet. When you walk away from it, and catch it here and there, it's ALL propaganda and it's so obvious. You wonder how people fall for it, but then you realize that they've literally grown up with the TV blaring for their entire lives, so how would they develop a sense of discernment? You can tell people, but they don't listen. Edward Bernays was what finally clued me in (well, him and a bunch of other stuff) but how many people are willing to read a book and consider a viewpoint so radically different than what they've been taught? In my experience, not many.
