Slaughter Spree - Axtell, Texas

As somebody from crystal lake, Illinois, it is a wonderful place to be and there’s no killers (right now)

Ive been to this museum! Its so cool 😎

Yay indeed!

I’m a journeyman pipe welder and listen to the show and a Patreon subscriber. A welding cap flap is used to protect your ear from falling sparks when you’re coming out of bottom of a piece of pipe laying on our sides stick welding that’s around 7 inches off the floor or grating. But I also pop my collar on my welding shirt for extra protection. What’s kinda funny, I always thought that was common sense to anyone with the word welding in it, which means light and fire that’s brighter than the sun, and always helps keep skin cancer at bay. You 2 never seem to surprise me with things you have no clue of knowing about or ever needed to. I love the show, and I’ve had to stop right in the middle of a weld, that’s so funny and laughing hard, that when I flipped my hood up, it looks like Ray Charles welded it. Hope you learned something lol have a great day

Jimmie is gonna be shocked when he finds out the Americans were the bad guys in Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia

Viet Cong and the North Vietnamese Army

I dead ass at first thought at the end you were going to do a crime in sports skit where you summon a character and then I went o shit this is actually happening he’s attacking the executioners 🤣🤣

Yay! I got my shout out on this one!!! Thanks guys!! 🤘🏼

"Buzzard bait" is now my new insult

My childhood was like those poor girls. Watching my step-asshole beating my mother or dreading the night time, after she went to sleep. My 20 year old self lived w/a beater because I had never seen anything different. I thought every household was like ours. It took me two times over 18 months to get away. It wasn't a very long time period but it felt like I aged 20 years. I hope every man that beats women, children, pets and sexually assaults children dies a slow painful death.

So the bill on the welding cap is for the back of your neck. The caps stop the helmets from pulling your hair anytime you move your mask. The bill makes the helmet easier to wear and stops berries from hitting the back of your neck.

Bosque county. (Boss-Key)…Spanish for “Forest”….I live there. Lol. Axtell is about as hillbilly as it gets though. Absolute trash.

So hear me out. Many opt for life in prison as a more humane punishment, save them from the death penalty. However, if you consider a case such as this where the perpetrator has a mental illness that will be medicated for during imprisonment; If they are not a true sociopath incapable of conscious guilt, then through control of their mental illness via meds, they should be more capable of reflecting on their actions thus feeling more guilt. So in essence a life without parole forces misery on them for longer than death via the states chosen means. Thereby creating a less humane punishment over the term of misery. . That said, this guy needed to be removed from existing without question.

21 years old, senior year of college in 1989. Good times.

The more people you tell me about the more I want to stay home with my dog

The bills on welding caps go in the back to keep sparks and slag from hitting your neck

He said Tulsa? That out west? 😂😂😂 I don’t blame ya Texas is a big beast

STM should borrow Billie Ray's catch phrase for Patreon, "That will be $5."

😂😂 the bill on a welders has is so they can move it around over their ears or the back of their neck wherever the sparks are flying.

I beg for a patron episode about the biker shoot out at twin peaks, and would more happy to ship the boys some 1970's dr pepper bottles because I have no use for them...

Its amazing how celebrity turned presidents are always absolute shit. Who would've thought.....

Thank you for badly mispronouncing the name of the county the entire episode. I'm not saying that you mispronounced Axtell, because it's FUCKING SPELLED AX-TELL. I hope every (alleged) racist, wife beating, slack-jawed, ass backward hic in that town grits their tooth until it "done falled down mu tchroat)" every time you say Axe-Tell and McLellan! P.S.- Because I know you're wondering; The 97% white, and basically 3% of anything else, is definitely on purpose, as you often say. Present company accepted, of course.

Hey you actually pronounced my first name right! Sounds like Asia. That hardly ever happens

Ya I think Maybe James didnt wana loose some audience but in Vietnam, we was the bad guys. Also WW1 was fought about colonies and land. WW2 it was clear who the bad guys were

My first week as a patreon member 🎊🫶🏽

As a son of Vietnam Veteran, I would like to say you guys do a wonderful job of never making generalizations. Great pronunciation of Da Nhang

Good shit cunts 👍🏻 love your work

I love James’s shirts. Last week he wore A tribe called quest one and this week De la soul! Love it

Worse than bees in your car 😔

Yes! Fuck Reagan!

I went to the siege site when we lived near Austin… it was an experience

My house is yellow bricks, made from a yellow toned clay. They mineral make-up of the clay impacts the colour.

Towards the 2:00ish hour mark, regarding juvenile records in Texas……they can be sealed at 19; however, can be opened in adult court in criminal court if the individual is a habitual offender or the offenses are significant…like this guy.

James, you got it right - Katerina Witt, though she won most of her titles in the '80s.

They’re killing pop pop get in the car lmao

Death penalty is justice for the family of the victim. But more than that it should be a deterrent for the rest of society. Which doesn't happen if it isn't carried out immediately after sentencing.

I'm an hour in and none of these shows have ever triggered my ptsd but this one got me. The part about this guy stalking her while at work, coming in to intimidate, etc. My ex would sit across the street and watch me all night and call me periodically to tell me what I was wearing or ask why I talked to a lodger so long (worked at a hotel with glass walls in the lobby). That shit is terrifying. It made me a wreck. Mine has a satisfactory ending—he was a MAGA antivaxxer (after we split) and died after 2 weeks on a vent during covid. 🙌😉

I get that she’s in for life without parole but can we please arrange for Kouri Richins to visit the Dr. Pepper museum? Murderer or not, she deserves answers.

Five-dollar bill? What is that referring to?

I don’t know… He has great behavior around men because he’s a pussy, let him out amongst the women folk, I wouldn’t count on a thing, no matter what his age. On some level, he is an eternal baby.

"Who was the bad guy in Vietnam?" If you ask Anthony Bourdain, it's Henry Kissenger

Hello from my office in Plano, thanks for the shoutout 👋🏼

Well, she hurt his feelings.

lol the welding cap “bill” is to keep the sparks out of your ear! It’s supposed to be worn so it covers your ear and neck when your head is turned to one side. As a welder I do wear them but only when I’m actually working, people who just wear them around as hats are real smooth brains

A psycho with a knife hides in your car and emerges as you drive and Jimmie says, "That's worse then bees!" Holy hell Jimmie!!! Way worse!! You, Jimmie, are a gem.

another thing to remember is that the World War II veterans had a longer time to decompress before coming back to civilian life? They had to spend a week on a vessel with all their buddies with nothing to do except for talk about their experiences of the war.

The bill of the welding hat is often turned to the side to cover the ear so slag doesn’t fall in

Man, I’ve hated a lot of people I’ve learned about from this show… but this guy is fucking horrible.

Baylor University is the halfway point between Dallas Fort Worth and Austin in Waco. 2 hours from both just about. 2 hours south of Dallas.

I'm Texan so I of course bucked off a couple shots when Texas was mentioned, as is tradition. Hahaha.

With a case like this, he should have been executed the next day. There was no doubt he did it. The family suffered all those years, he had no remorse, he was a child molest at the least and a killer at the most. He took up valuable air. I know it sounds harsh but when did he become the victim. Bad childhood is not an excuse. A lot of people had a bad childhood, get off the cross we need the wood.

I could use 10 bongloads a day. Been slacking.

You can't just say the psychiatrist has given so many people the death penalty, you have to put it into perspective. how many cases was he involved in and then look at the percentage of which it testify they should get the death penalty. one number means nothing

Yay indeed jimmy

As a person who has been divorced twice, nothing says “makes bad decisions” like calling someone “twice-divorced.” 😬😂

If you pitched this shit to a movie studio, they’d tell you… “It’s wayyy too over the top!!..yeah, sure, he even killed the new guard dog”

So I'm from a small town in Texas called Ballinger, and last year there was a murder there, I would really love to know more about what happened because the local community seemed to just try to sweep it under the rug. Would be awesome to hear you guys crack on the place I lived for the last 15 years!!!

Baylor is near Irving Texas, just outside of Dallas. I worked for a medical practice that was a part of Baylor university Hospital

YAAAAAYYYYYYY!!

Extreme Dr Pepper? Okay, but what kind of Doctor WAS he... 😉
