Law officers are investigating whether
the deaths of ten women in Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and
Mississippi are linked to a serial killer.
Police say they believe the killer as a long-haul truck driver
preying on women around truck stops.
The Fort Worth Star-Telegram in Texas reports investigators from
across the South are to meet in Oklahoma City next week to exchange
information on a woman found dead in Grapevine. The death of
19-year-old Casey Jo Pipestem of Oklahoma City is the most recent
suspected to be linked to the killer.
Most of the victims were prostitutes. Some were strangled; one
was raped. In many cases, their nude bodies were dumped in rural
areas, often off bridges.
Most of the eight women found in Texas and Oklahoma are believed
to have been prostitutes involved with drugs. All were found nude
with no identification.
