$25,000 Reward: Help Unravel the Mystery of the Eastbound Strangler


Four women were found murdered in Atlantic City back in 2006. It's not just the killings that are scary, it's the way their bodies were found!  

Their arms were spread out and their heads pointed east, almost like a scene from a horror movie.  The creepy killer responsible got a chilling nickname: "Eastbound Strangler."

Even though it's been almost 20 years, the police are still searching for this monster. A special team that helps catch serial killers is even offering a big reward, $25,000, for any information that leads to an arrest.  They believe this killer might have taken more lives than just these four women.


The bodies were all dumped in a ditch near a motel, each one arranged in the same eerie way. Experts who study serial killers think the person who did this might be obsessed with feet, or maybe even following some strange ritual.

At first, some people thought this killer might be connected to another serial killer in Long Island, but that theory doesn't seem to hold water anymore.

The team hunting this killer has a profile of what he might be like.  They think he knows the Atlantic City area well, is very organized, and might even have a collection of women's shoes.  He might also talk down about prostitutes.

The police haven't been able to find any DNA evidence yet, but they're convinced the killer is still out there somewhere.  They believe he might have killed before these four women and maybe even after.

If you remember anything about these murders, even something small, you can help!  

Contact the police or the team offering the reward.  Any little piece of information could be the key to bringing this case to a close and getting justice for these victims.
