An Iowa man is facing four murder charges after allegedly attacking a group of people with a metal pipe on June 5. The Linn County Sheriff’s Office said Luke Truesdell admitted to the brutal beatings that left four dead and even led deputies to his weapon of choice. Truesdell reportedly “admitted to several motives including that a movie would be made about the killings,” the complaint said. Law&Crime’s Sierra Gillespie breaks down the disturbing case fueled by Hollywood dreams.

Truesdell has been charged with four counts of first-degree murder.

What’s crazy is he has kids too
Bruh the green screen backdrop @1:30 😂
There are more people involved in this case.
This man was tweaking on meth that's not mental that junkie
Rest in peace my brother ROMONDAS COOPER and the other 3 victims
They had to be drugged
Is 13 minutes a long enough movie?
Honor the victims let’s not
I will do a interview for free thats my cousin I want to clear up some things you have wrong
It’s crazy how he had no blood on him but the other two guys do crazy
Can’t believe he done this I feel sry for the family i can’t believe this is my family it really blows my mind
It’s very odd the 4 were homeless living in country for a year. The instagram pics they all look healthy but sound like drug problems. The killer was a known addict. Dad wouldn’t let son stay in house but could stay in the shop. WTF. Dad was right drugs bring killers. Probably saved the rest of his family with that decision right there.
A movie? The most you will get is a 10 minute youtube video.
It's disgusting how all these news agency's are so desperate and attention seeking and do something pretty desperate and disrespectful things just to get info for a story they will only understand when something happens to one of there family or friends
Apparently they were all in the same garage doing meth. It's on one of the killers public comments on his Facebook
My cousin 😭
These news agency's are whacked for taking pictures off of Facebook and using in there news articles
Don't do it, Netflix
Another goofball on the loose in the midwest. Who is raising these psychos?
If a movie does come out the families should sue and collect all coins and have the movie pulled OR do a movie about the victims ONLY. not including him or his name but just about the victims. That'll eat him up to see that he's not the star of the movie instead just a disgusting human being.
Tubi has entered the chat 😒
How about instead of getting a movie, he gets a death penalty …..
The killer was probably a victim of the medical malpractice by Dr. Patrick William Hitchon. The University of Iowa Hospital destroys the lives of many people.
Bet he gets the mental health story on the news. Theyll show pictures of him hanging out with his weirdo friends in highschool and how he looked at prom. Never fails.
Wtf? Shocking..
Evil
Is this real here???? And the killer man doesn't need to think so hard about why we hate them
I need attention is not a mental issue it's the characteristics of a narcissist loser
There are a special kind of person who becomes a killer and that special kind of person is a NARCISSISTIC PHYSOSPATH. I'm being sarcastic i hope who reads this gets my point. When an individual sits and thinks about unaliving innocent people and watches past serial killers is definitely not a fan of true crime. A fan of true crime is interested in solving puzzles.
You people always claim insanity for these demons
Media in America are absolutely useless. They can’t report the news and glorify these people, since Columbine.
The usual suspects, killing multiple people just to have a movie made about them, because they're having a bad day, or because their mom took their video game away.
VOICE??? Byeeeeeeee
Sierra is gorgeous!!
Buddy was deff on meth and there’s more to this story then he wanted it to be a movie that’s such bs an just a cover up story for the truth of why it was done matter fact he prolly took the blame for some one else
It’s all too much. Sick.
Seems like the Idaho 4 murders
Maybe on lifetime.
