JD'S Memes

The assistant director for counterintelligence at the FBI, where he served 25 years as a special agent. In the first half, he discussed the FBI Highway Serial Killings Initiative and their hunt for individuals who have accounted for an astonishing 850 murders across the nation. The cases he's investigated are primarily unsolved murders of sex trafficking victims committed by long-haul truckers, with around 450 active suspects, though some are believed to have multiple victims. A small minority of long-haul truckers exploit jurisdictional seams to traffic and kill sex workers, often with decades-long delays in identifying victims and catching killers, Figliuzzi reported.

He further explained how the perpetrator will grab a victim at one location, often at or near a truck stop, related to some kind of sex for money transaction. Then, they'll rape and/or murder the victim in a second jurisdiction, and dispose of the body in a third location. Among the cases he detailed was that of serial killer Robert Ben Rhoades, a truck driver from Houston who was convicted of killing a teenage girl and her boyfriend, though he was additionally linked to other murders. Figliuzzi also delved into the dark side of the trucking industry, including alcoholism and depression, and noted that the profession needs more support and recognition.
