Boyfriend ?
Her daughter knows something
I've been watching true crime documentaries for awhile now and this is how victims are usually described…."someone who lights up a room"…..
Coincidence? Joseph James DeAngelo lived 5 minutes from where he van was found and it was found at end of Old Auburn Blvd and Canyon Oak where he lived comes off that street. She was murdered on the anniversary of his conviction of shoplifting by a Sacramento County jury in 1979 and then he became a rampaging killer. She was also abducted on the exact day his wife bought a new house and moved in and forced him to sign a community property waiver. She lived by Save Mart where he worked. Did he see her at that store on her way home Friday after school? I believe he did it.
😢
This case remains unsolved after 28 years
Janitor of the school
Kids are dressing up, there’s popcorn 🍿 every where .
Any updates ??
Did they ever check students with their parents?
Do you think it was the California state killer the guy that's already in prison
Hope they catch the person.
Thank you true crime for always padding a heartbreaking story in awful puns. It really drives the story home for me. I'll bet the family of the victim appreciates it too.
"A beloved elementary school teacher is found strangled in a GOULISH Halloween murder."
"And for 22 years, Cheriyln's unsolved murder has HAUNTED everyone who knew and loved her."
"Now, after all this time, cold case cops believe they may be close to finally catching the HALLOWEEN MONSTER who killed Ms. Hawkley."
"A woman who could LIGHT up any room cam face to face with DARKNESS and death."
"Elementary school teacher Cherilyn Hawkley is found strangled in her minivan in a GRIMM Halloween murder…"
"… bring the Halloween GHOUL to justice."
I've known Melissa for years and I met Heather a few years back. Every so often I do a search on this case in the hopes that there are answers for them and their family. 💔 One day I hope that when I search it will come up with a report that this has been solved.
I’m so glad I’m an under-achieving loner who never lights up rooms
This screams potential boyfriend (jealous female) that she knew through the school. I also don’t trust the best friend though. Come on police.
😔
why kill this woman for no reason, sick people out there.
This was 2016, still no update?
To the narrator, I can understand your enthusiasm but as this is a crime case can you tone it down a notch and just speak without such dramatic narrations please I couldn't stand it so had to stop watching. Peace.
This reminds me of the case where someone was having a secret relationship with a cop. The cop lured and strangled her making it look like a suicide. I think that woman was pregnant.
The female narrative voice is so hilariously forced I can't listen to the story. I'll read about it elsewhere. Sorry but it's really BAD.
Hooked on all these stories!! Keep them coming…💔💔💔
If I had to guess i’d say it was the Janitor💯
