HARRY POWERS - The PenPal Killer of Women & Children. Town of Maine Cemetery in Park Ridge, Illinois

My ex was from a dating site and he was violent and ended up breaking my neck. I ended up on life support. That was 17 yrs ago. Pay attention to red flags and be safe. Love yourself 🤗 The guy you are talking about is beyond evil!

Ron, someone needs to give you your own TV show. You're a wonderful story teller. It's beautiful how you honor these mostly long forgotten souls. Bless you and thank you, Ron. 🕊❤🕊

Mothers have to be more careful who they let into their lives or your children may pay for your mistakes

His ad reminds me of the old adage: "If it sounds too good to be true it probably is!" He looks more geekish than a serial killer which should concern us all!

Con artists and serial killers have always been around. We just hear more about it now because of technology. May those poor people rest in peace. Thanks for another great video.

I am in tears at this horror. I cannot understand nor wish to, how anyone could do this. I served 32 years in the UK prison service and met many killers. Lots of them appeared normal but their true nature came through when denied something. They demand respect but rarely show it. I found this site by chance when looking into the Nutty Putty cave. I am impressed with the respect and dignity that you show the forgotten people. To see their faces is sobering. Thank you.

Those poor children and their mother... and the other poor souls. Bless them in heaven and may they all rest in peace. 🕊🙏🏻🕊

my stepfather was an old friend of the family, promised my mother he'd give her four children everything they needed and even adopted us. he did it for business reasons: a family man is good for business. he was a murderer and even looked like Powers

Makes me sick. The guy was a sicko. Even back then. But, lonely people will fall for almost anything. Sad buy true. Scammers are scammers. Poor women. May the all Rest In Peace. As usual Ron, awesome work on a sad story indeed.

Neighbors, in those days, kept an eye out for each other......now....sad.

Such a sad story, back in the day women were raised to become house wives, mothers, and anything in between. If a husband died, or left you, it put them in a vulnerable spot. They had no training, or means to support their children, or it would be a menial job. A women was dependent on a man, for safety, love, and support. It seems this vile slithering little creature took advantage of this women's feeling for his own prospects. I hope he went back to where he came. The poor children, the fear they must have felt is beyond comprehension. Women, and men need to pay attention to the red flags, if something doesn't seem right, it probably isn't. Thanks Ron

The character played by Robert Mitchum in the movie "Night of the Hunter" was loosely based on this man , they even used the same name for the preacher that Mitchum played. The movie scared me as a kid.

Such a sad and horrific story. So scary how far some of us humans go to find love. There always seems to be a monster waiting with open claws to latch on to them.

These women already seem to have some decent money in the bank. Very sad that the children were killed in his evil plans also. What a monster.

Very sad and disturbing case, that just a Evil could do It to another human being 👿 Sorry for the Mom and her Kids, may they Rest in Peace 🙏💔 Thanks Sir for remembering Them 🤗

That Harry Powers sounds like a real creep to me You wouldn't catch me on a dating site May the Eicher family Rest in Peace😢💖

This was heartbreaking! God Bless to all his victims.

The Eicher house is a historic landmark in Park Ridge.

I heard bits & pieces of this story when I was a kid. My parents grew up in Hodgeville (Hacker's Creek), WV. Quiet Dell is still just a little unincorporated spot near there, on the way to Clarksburg. Didn't realize how close this guy lived to my grandparents'.

Poor ladies. The man was a bad seed. A demon in human skin. Loneliness can be a killer for real.
